I always tell the girls: ‘Never take it seriously’. If you never take it seriously, you never get hurt. If you never get hurt, you always have fun. And if you ever get lonely, you just go to the record store and visit your friends

I always tell the girls: Never take it seriously, if ya never take it seriously, ya never get hurt, if ya never get hurt ya always have fun, and if you’re ever lonely, just go to the record store, and visit your friends.

I didn’t invent the rainy day, I just got the best umbrella.

I dig music….I’m on drugs!

I don’t think anyone can really explain rock and roll. Well, maybe Pete Townsend.

I dont care about a t shirt, i’m hungry lets just go find some barbeque or something.

I get people off. I look for the one guy in the crowd that isn’t getting off…and I MAKE him get off. Actually, THAT you can print.

I group up in that lamp shade!

I have to crap.

i love you alex

I need ice.

I need ice?

I need to see you face to face because I’m never as good as when you’re there and I can see myself the way you look at me and I’m sorry…

I never said I was a golden god… or did I?

i think she said feck

I was thinking that we could hang out you know do stuff back home first, and then i would see you pee..

I won’t call again I promise. But, I need to see you face to face because I’m never as good as when you’re there and I can see myself the way you look at me and I’m sorry. If we could just get together and find some time to talk… Lets say all the things we never said

If you think Mick Jagger will still be out there trying to be a rock star when he’s fifty, you’re sadly mistaken.

If you think Mick Jagger’s gonna be out there at age 50 trying to be rock n roll, you are sadly sadly mistaken.

If you think that Mick Jagger will still be doing the whole rock star thing at age fifty, well, then, you are sorely, sorely mistaken.

im about to boldly go where many men have gone before

Im just one of the OUT OF FOCUS PEOPLE

Im Sorry but could you please FUCK off!

in 11 years it will 1984, think about that

Isn’t it funny how the truth just sounds different.

It is the poetry of drugs and promiscuous sex. Honey, they’re on pot.

It’s a voice that says Here I am and Fuck you if you can’t understand me!!

It’s all happening!

IT’S ALL HAPPENING…

ITS OK, IM EASY TO FORGET IM ONLY THE FUCKING LEAD SINGER

Its time to De-flower the child!

Jeff Bebe: ‘Rock ‘n’ roll can save the world’? ‘The chicks are great’? I sound like a dick!

Jeff Bebe: He was never a person, he was a journalist!

Jeff Bebe: Is it that hard to make us look cool?!

Jeff Bebe: It’s okay! I’m easy to forget! I’m only the fucking lead singer!

Jeff Bebe: Some people have a hard time explaining rock ‘n’ roll. I don’t think anyone can really explain rock ‘n’ roll. Except Pete Townshend, but that’s okay. Rock ‘n’ roll is a lifestyle and a way of thinking… and it’s not about money and popularity. Although, some money would be nice. But it’s a voice that says, ‘Here I am… and fuck you if you can’t understand me.’ And one of these people is gonna save the world. And that means that rock ‘n’ roll can save the world… all of us together. And the chicks are great. But what it all comes down to is that thing. The indefinable thing when people catch something in your music.

Jeff Bebe: You know I do? I connect. I get people off. I look for that one guy that’s not getting off, and I MAKE him get off!

Just make us look cool, man.

Lester Bangs: And then it just becomes an industry of… cool.

Lester Bangs: Don’t let those swill merchants rewrite you.

Lester Bangs: Of course I’m home. I’m always home. I’m uncool.

Lester Bangs: Oh man, you made friends with ’em. See, friendship is the booze they feed you. They want you to get drunk on feeling like you belong.
William Miller: Well, it was fun.
Lester Bangs: Because they make you feel cool, and hey, I met you. You are not cool.

Lester Bangs: So, you’re the one who’s been sending me those articles from your school newspaper.
William Miller: I’ve been doing some stuff for a local underground paper, too.
Lester Bangs: What, are you like the star of your school?
William Miller: They hate me.
Lester Bangs: You’ll meet them all again on their long journey to the middle.

Lester Bangs: The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you’re uncool.

Lester Bangs: The only true currency in this bankrupt world…is what you share with someone else when you’re uncool.

Lester Bangs: You CANNOT make friends with the rock stars. That’s what’s important. If you’re a rock journalist — first, you will never get paid much. But you will get free records from the record company. And they’ll buy you drinks, you’ll meet girls, they’ll try to fly you places for free, offer you drugs… I know. It sounds great. But they are not your friends. These are people who want you to write sanctimonious stories about the genius of the rock stars, and they will ruin rock and roll and strangle everything we love about it.

LESTER:DON’T WORRY YOU’LL MEET THEM ALL AGAIN ON THEIR LONG JOURNEY DOWN TO THE MIDDLE.

Listen to Tommy with a candle burning and you’ll see your future

Look at this. A whole generation of Cinderellas, and no slipper coming.

Look under your bed. It’ll set you free.

My Cherie Amour.

Never take it seriously, If you never take it seriously you never get hurt.If you never get hurt, then you always have fun, and if you ever get lonely you just go to the record store and visit your friends.

Of course im home…im uncool

One day… you’ll be cool.

Peggy Sue.

PENNY LANE was the one who told us no more sex……just blowjobs and thats it!

Penny Lane: How old are you?
William Miller: Eighteen.
Penny Lane: Me too! How old are we really?
William Miller: Seventeen.
Penny Lane: Me too!
William Miller: Actually, I’m sixteen.
Penny Lane: Me too. Isn’t it funny? The truth just sounds different.
William Miller: I’m fifteen.

Penny Lane: I always tell the girls never take it seriously. If you never take it seriously then you never get hurt. If you never get hurt then you always have fun, and if you ever get lonely you can just go to the record store and visit your friends.

Penny Lane: Never take it seriously, you never get hurt. Never get hurt, you can always have fun. And if you ever get lonely, you just go to the record store and visit all your friends.

Penny Lane: We are not groupies! Groupies sleep with rockstars to be around famous people. We’re here for the music. We’re Band aids.

Penny Lane: We are not groupies. Groupies sleep with rock stars because they want to be near someone famous. WE are band-aides. We’re here for the music.

Penny Lane: We are not Groupies. We are here because of the music, we inspire the music. We are Band Aids.

Penny Lane: You’re too sweet for rock and roll.
William Miller: Sweet? Where do you get off? Where do you get sweet? I am dark and mysterious, and I am PISSED OFF! I could be very dangerous to all of you! And you should know that about me… I am THE ENEMY!

Penny-Thats it,I’ll go to New York myself. I’ve got a bunch of partial tickets…I know his ex girlfriend/wife’s gonna be there..William- Wake up! Dont go to New York! Penny- Why are you yelling at me?

Penny: how old are you? William:18 Penny:me too!..how old are we really? William: 17 Penny:me too! William:actually im 16 Penny: me too! William:im 15

So Russel, what do you love about music? To begin with…everything…

So what are you like the star of your school?

Some people you meet on the rode are really amazing people..like you..but its better for like a few people to know about then a million people..

The Doors? Awe comeon! Jim Morrison, he’s a drunken baffon! (Hey I like The Doors) Pshht, awwe…Give me the Guess Who! They’ve got the courage to be drunken baffons, and that makes them poetic!

We are not groupies! We are banaids!

We are not groupies. Groupies are girls who have sex with the band members b/c they want to be near someone famous. We are here for the music. We are band-aids.

We are not groupies. We’re band aids

We are uncool. women will always be a problem for guys like us. Most major art is about that very subject.

We take all kinds of pills that give us all kinds of thrills, but the thrill we’ve never known, is the thrill that’ll get ya when ya get your picture on the cover of the Rolling Stone.

We.Are.Not.Groupies.

What kind of beer was it?

whats your real name?

When did you become so professional?

Who put such a high premium on being typical?

Why doesn’t he love me?

William Miller: ‘That groupie’? She was a Band-Aid! All she did was love your band. And you used her, all of you! You used her and threw her away! She almost died last night while you were with Bob Dylan. You guys, you’re always talking about the fans, the fans, the fans; she was your biggest fan, and you threw her away! And if you can’t see that, that’s your biggest problem. And I love her! I love her!

William Miller: Do you have to be depressed to write a sad song? Do you have to be in love to write a love song? Is a song better when it really happened to you? Like Love Thing, where did you write that and who was it about?
Russell Hammond: When did you get so professional?

William Miller: Don’t you have any regular friends?
Penny Lane: Famous people are just more interesting.

William Miller: I have to go home.
Penny Lane: You are home.

William Miller: I love you. And I’m about to boldly go where… many men have gone before.

William Miller: Please don’t give him any more acid.

William Miller: Please stop giving him acid!

William Miller: Sweet? Where do you get off? Where do you get sweet? I am dark and mysterious, and I am PISSED OFF! I could be very dangerous to all of you! And you should know that about me… I am THE ENEMY!

William Miller: When and where does this ‘real world’ occur?!

William Miller: [on meeting Stillwater] Russell. Jeff. Ed. Larry. I really love your band. I think the song ‘Fever Dog’ is a big step forward for you guys. I think you guys producing it yourselves, instead of Glyn Johns, was the right thing to do. And the guitar sound… is incindiary. Incendiary. Way to go.
[He turns to leave. The band members regard one another for a moment.]
Russell Hammond: Well, don’t stop there!
Jeff Bebe: Yeah, come back here! I’m incendiary, too, man!

WILLIAM! YOUR MOM Called! SHE SAID to ring her as soon as possible and she said to tell you, she know’s whats going on!! Ummph!

William, your mother called. She freaked me out. Tell her not to do that again. (looks at the note that says ‘Don’t take drugs!’)

You are home

You are the last of my all time friends.

You can tell Rolling Stone Magazine, that my last words were…..I’m on drugs.

You cannot make friends with the rock stars.

you love this shirt cause it lets you say everything you want to say

You want to rebel against knowledge. I am trying to give you the Cliff Notes on how to live life in this world.

You’ll meet them all again on their long journey to the middle

You’ll meet them all again on their long journey to the middle.

You’ll meet them all on the long journey to the middle.

You’ll still be the youngest lawyer in the country.

You’re retired like Frank Sinatra is retired.

You’re too sweet for rock n’ roll.

Your aura! Its PURPLE!

Your mother freaks me out.

Your ora is purple….it’s purple. Purple.

[Ed’s only line]
Ed: I’m gay!

[Finally getting his interview with Russell Hammond]
William Miller: So Russell… what do you love about music?
Russell Hammond: To begin with, everything.

[Regarding the t-shirt picture]
Russell Hammond: Can we just skip the vibe, and go straight to us laughing about this?
Jeff Bebe: Yeah, okay.
Russell Hammond: Because I can see by your face you want to get into it.
Jeff Bebe: How can you tell? I’m just one of the out-of-focus guys.

[Russell is on the phone with Penny]
Russell Hammond: Give me your address. This time, I’m coming to you.
