One of the oddest moments in Smashing Pumpkins history, and a rare look at just how frazzled their relationship as band mates was at that point.

For context, James complained through that whole show about feeling sick from eating bad lobster. He talks about it between songs. At the beginning of the time you marked, Billy mentions that James threw up backstage. My guess is James wanted to skip the encore and get back to his room, but Billy pushed for an encore.
