Testing, testing.

Hello? I'm good?

You just let me know when you're ready.

Uh... How long's this gonna take?

Okay.

Let's get this party started.

So Daisy also agreed to this?

I don't even know where to begin.

Start at the beginning.

When did you first fall in love with music?

♪ About 1500 miles between me ♪

♪ And the place I call my home... ♪

♪ I know you mistreat me, baby ♪

♪ But my home I never roam ♪

♪ So all alone... ♪

The interesting thing about Daisy is

she was born with every advantage.

Her father's money,

her mother's beauty.

♪ All alone, I... ♪

Excuse me.

She had anything and everything at her disposal.

♪ Well, my life... ♪

- Do you ever shut up? - And yet,

she was completely alone.

No one wants to hear your voice.

Swear she was put on this Earth to embarrass me.

♪ A magic carpet ride... ♪

There was two options for the kids in my town.

There was the mill or there was the war.

I always dreamed of something different.

- Hey. - Hey.

Hey, Ma.

He's...

... still in the bedroom.

Come on, Peaches.

She's just a girl. There will be others.

How do you know?

Because you're 14 years old,

and you can play the guitar.

Trust me,

you're gonna have plenty of girlfriends someday.

It was Graham's idea to start a band.

Where's this all coming from anyway?

- He's trying to get his girlfriend back. - What?

No.

- It's not about that. - Of course not.

No, it's about doing something I love with my brother

and my three best friends.

- And if girls just happen to notice... - Wait.

- What did he say? - Your brother?

Like, as in... Billy Dunne is gonna be in this band?

Yeah, I never agreed to be in their band.

One, two, three, four, five, six...

I said I would listen.

Maybe give them some pointers.

♪ ... in New Orleans ♪

♪ They call ♪

♪ The Rising Sun ♪

♪ And it's been the ruin ♪

♪ For many a poor boy ♪

- ♪ And God, I know... ♪ - Stop.

Stop, stop.

It's an E major, chief.

- And you... Thundersticks. - Yes.

Where'd you get those tree trunks?

They're my grandfather's.

Easy on those fills, yeah?

This isn't jazz.

Again, from the top.

Now, hey, Billy. Why don't you, uh...

sh-show us how it's done?

I mean, I knew my brother.

By the second practice,

he was basically in the band. And by the third?

It was his.

Fucking guy.

I mean, what a time to be alive if you loved music.

I saw Cream at the PAC Center

and Zeppelin at the Whisky.

Snuck backstage for The Who at the Shrine.

I was 15 years old,

and the whole world just seemed so

beautiful and good.

♪ Where I can easily see my face ♪

♪ Maybe, baby, I'll say that you were ♪

♪ Kind ♪

♪ Know I love you, baby... ♪

♪ Yes, I do... ♪

Where is everybody?

People say I was naive.

I wasn't naive,

I was a baby.

And I hated that feeling.

So pathetic

and weak.

So helpless.

I just didn't want to be that girl anymore.

Evening.

Right on.

We're the Dunne Brothers.

For now.

We did ten proms,

20 graduation parties.

I mean, I-I don't even know how many Sweet 16s.

♪ Oh, Suzie Q ♪

♪ Oh, Suzie Q, baby I love you ♪

♪ Suzie Q ♪

♪ I like the way you walk ♪

♪ I like the way you talk ♪

♪ I like ♪

♪ The way you walk, I like the way you talk ♪

♪ Suzie Q... ♪

The band was...

you know, it was just a distraction.

An escape, you know?

I mean, none of us

ever thought of it as anything more than that,

not even Billy.

♪ Oh, Suzie Q, baby I ♪

♪ Love you, Suzie Q... ♪

And then, one night, everything changed.

♪ Ah, you're looking nice, baby, you're... ♪

Damn, darling, truly...

You can dance.

Howling at the moon! Yeah!

Let's go.

Look out, everybody.

Hey, Billy.

He's supposed to be in Georgia, Graham.

Well, he's not, all right?

I bet he never even fucking left.

- What's wrong with you guys? - Hey, not now, Eddie.

You sound great tonight, man.

And you were fucking ripping in there.

What's going on?

You see the guy in there in the plaid suit?

Who? The creepster with the comb-over

and the girl half his age?

Yeah, he's our dad.

I mean, I was four when he left.

So, I never really had a father,

but it was different for Billy.

He worshipped the guy.

I'm gonna say something.

Billy, no. Billy.

- Hey, Billy! - No, I have to.

Come here.

Yeah? Mm-hmm. Wow.

Help you?

Yeah. You know who I am?

Should I?

Yeah, you should.

Well, then, of course I do.

I'd recognize that guitar anywhere.

Anything else?

Hey. He's not worth it, all right? Let's go home.

Take it.

Go on, take it.

I said fucking take it!

I've got no use for it.

I gave it to you.

Something to remember me by.

There you go, asshole.

Oh! Come on, come on, come on.

Guess we're not getting paid for that gig, huh?

Billy.

You okay, man?

You know, I can still see the look on Billy's face.

I mean, that was the moment this thing became real.

Guys, come here.

Come here.

Yeah.

You're my brothers. I love you.

We work hard, we stick together,

we're gonna be the biggest fucking band

in the world someday.

Do you trust me?

Hell yeah.

Yeah. You kidding me, man?

we're family. Come here.

I really believed it, too.

You know, even before I met Daisy.

Hey, Mikey.

Was I out of control?

What does it do?

Probably.

But I was writing, too,

which felt even better than drugs.

Like I'd found a piece of me that I didn't know was missing.

I couldn't imagine a better feeling.

What are you doing?

These are private. You don't just come into

somebody's room and go through their things.

These are mine.

Mom?

Are they any... any good, or...

You're a pretty girl, Margaret.

Uh, excuse me.

- Sorry, um, are you... - I am, yeah.

Billy Dunne, pleasure to meet you.

Oh. Um...

I was just gonna say, "Are you using that basket?"

No, I'm not.

There you go.

Cool. Thanks.

Sure.

So, uh, s... so you don't... know who I am?

Should I?

Well, I'm in a band.

Cool.

Oh, God.

- What? - No, it's... it's, uh...

Some people know me, that's all, and I saw you

looking over. I just...

Do you know what? Never mind. It's-it's fine.

Of course I knew who he was, are you kidding me?

Every girl in Hazelwood knew Billy Dunne,

and not because he was in some band.

So, what's a big rock star like you

doing in the neighborhood fluff and fold?

Honestly?

- My mom's washer/dryer broke. - Wow.

- Yeah. - That's really sweet of you.

Helping your mom out like that.

Must be a good son.

Well, it's-it's kind of... my washer/dryer, too.

Right, because you... still live with your mother.

- It's going great for me, isn't it? - Oh...

Okay, all right. Wh... Uh, what can I do to turn this around?

Oh, man, I really, I...

I don't think there's much...

- you can do, no. - No? Okay.

Well, how about this...

you give me your number, and I'll write you a song.

Wow.

Has that line ever worked?

Uh, you tell me.

It's... the first time I'm using it.

I knew Camila from the neighborhood.

We used to walk to Sunday school together,

when we were kids.

You couldn't help but fall in love with her,

even then.

And then she met Billy.

it felt like all we did was practice.

and raw by the time I got to bed,

Hey.

Please tell me

you at least brought the tie that I picked out?

- I got the tie, I got the tie. - The tie?

- You're a mess. - What?

And your button isn't even done.

You have a beautiful home, sir.

Camila tells us you work in the steel mill.

Uh, yeah. Yeah, I do.

But it's just temporary, you know?

Oh.

Billy's a musician.

Yeah, I'm in a band called, uh, the Dunne Brothers.

Yeah, they're really good.

Uh, yeah, I mean, we're-we're working

hard at it. We're practicing

as much as we can,

and we're playing gigs every night.

And this pays the bills?

- Uh... Well, not exactly. - It will.

Yeah, it will.

I never doubted it for a second.

Not everyone felt the same.

- God... - There he is.

Why's it closed?

- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. - Hey, man.

Chucky!

What's up, man?

Why's the garage door closed?

Look, I don't know how to say this,

so I'm just gonna say it.

I got into college.

All right.

Bro, we didn't even know you applied.

Was this, like,

before or after I spent all my money on this van?

I know, I'm sorry. It's just...

they have a really good dental program.

So, what? You're gonna be a dentist now?

I don't know. I guess so.

Chuck, come on.

All right, please don't do this. All right? Not now.

Right? Not when things are starting to happen.

What do you mean, "just starting to happen"?

Dude, we open for the Winters on Thursday,

and that's-that's just the beginning.

This is a real opportunity.

- So is this. - Billy, I know this is your dream, man,

but just because you want something to happen

doesn't mean it's going to.

Do you really think that there's a future here?

Well, yeah, Chuck, I do.

You're out of your fucking mind.

Great cardigan, Chuck,

very dentist-like.

We got to cancel the gig.

No, man. We're not cancelling.

Yeah? What are we gonna do?

- We don't have our bassist, Billy. - We're not cancelling.

Eddie, you switch over to bass.

No.

For how long?

Thanks, man. We owe you.

- "Something out there with the... " - I don't remember.

You're gonna have to write your own fucking song.

I'm being serious.

And the worst part is that I let him

take that song from me.

I mean, that is how little

I thought of myself at the time.

Thank God I met Simone when I did.

Daisy says you changed her life.

Do you remember how you met?

We were at some party in the hills, I think.

And I had just finished performing at Gazzarri's,

so she must have seen me there.

She knew everything about me.

In fact, she knew everything about everything.

So he gets this idea that he can swim

from one neighbor's pool to the next,

which sounds totally crazy, but in the context of the film

- it makes... - Sorry, what's your name again?

Daisy.

I'm a huge fan of yours.

I don't know what you're doing, though,

singing backup for Penny fucking Richardson.

There you are. I was looking for you.

Penny fucking Richardson.

Excuse me?

Daisy Jones. Huge fan.

Let's get out of here. I'm tired.

- Penny, we talked about this. - No, you talked.

And you know what, Simone? I'm fucking done.

- Ah, would you excuse me? Just one second. - Yeah. Sure.

It's not what you think.

All I think is that you're way too cool for that chick.

We started talking

and we just never stopped.

It's temporary.

When the album comes out, I'll buy a place in the hills.

- Two stories. - You didn't tell me you were recording an album.

Mm-hmm.

So, no more singing backup then?

I sure as hell hope not.

You sing, Daisy?

Uh, no, not-not really.

I just took piano lessons as a kid.

But I am in love with this record.

♪ I think I'm goin' back ♪

♪ To the things I learned... ♪

What do you love about it?

I mean, she wrote all these songs for other people.

"Up on the Roof," "Pleasant Valley Sunday,"

"One Fine Day." And they're all great songs.

But this is different, you know. I mean, she...

she chose to sing these songs in her own voice

because they meant something to her.

It's just personal. You know?

That's you, isn't it?

I've seen you, too, honey.

Gazzarri's. The Whisky. All over the Strip.

Most of them girls are just there for drugs, sex,

stories to tell their friends.

Obviously, you got to write your own material.

Well, I-I mean, I do.

Most of it's not good enough yet.

What are you writing about?

I have this one song called "Nevermore,"

- about the Catonsville Nine... - No.

Oh!

A-Are you Bob Dylan?

Are you Buffy Sainte-Marie?

Uh...

Enough with the political shit. It's a new decade.

No one needs reminding that the world is a mess.

People want to feel good again. They want to feel hope.

You can write a love song, can't you?

Rod had a lot of ideas.

You need to cool it with the solos, brother.

Nobody cares about your technical guitar skills.

They want to sing. They want to dance.

Rod told me to wear low-cut shirts.

I told Rod to eat shit, and that was that.

The last thing I'll say, and this is key.

You need to get the fuck out of Pittsburgh.

You want to be signed to a label,

you want to work with Jimmy Miller, Tom Dowd,

Teddy Price...

- You know Teddy Price? - Yeah, man.

I know everybody, and they're all in L.A. now.

Not London, not New York.

California, my friend.

That is the place you got to be.

- I'm in. - Yeah?

- Yeah, me, too. - Yes.

Guess I better gas up the van.

You think she's gonna make it?

I think she's gonna make it.

What are you guys talking about?

Uh...

You could come with us.

And do what? Huh?

Follow you around?

I have a job, Billy. I'm going to school.

You know, I can't just follow some boy

- across the country because... - Some boy?

- I mean, yeah. - Some boy. I'm not some boy.

I mean, well, what is this, then?

Come here.

Come here, come on.

So that's it, then? It's over?

You still owe me that song, Billy Dunne.

Camila?

He's moving away.

I'm sorry, my love.

Maybe this is a blessing.

He asked me to go with him.

Where?

California.

California?

- You can't, your family is here. - I know, I know, I know.

I know.

Nothing's more important than that.

You never turn your back on family.

You did.

It's not enough just to meet the right person.

You, uh, you have to meet them at the right time as well.

It's getting dark, guys.

Let's get a move on.

Whoa, look who it is.

Hey, hey!
