1:15:00
And I've been neglecting my exams.
1:15:02
And there's these three girls
with the band.

1:15:05
I've had lustful thoughts.
1:15:07
About all of them.
1:15:09
And when I studied I used to sing hymns.
1:15:11
Now I'm always humming "When a Man
Loves a Woman" by Marvin Gaye.

1:15:15
- Percy Sledge.
- Wha'?

1:15:18
It was Percy Sledge did that
particular song. I have the album.

1:15:21
Oh.
1:15:28
Saw the posters.
The band's playin' a few gigs?

1:15:31
A few, yeah.
1:15:32
So why haven't I been paid?
1:15:35
That was the deal.
1:15:37
I get you gear,
1:15:39
and you give me money.
1:15:42
I'll pay. It's just I've got
a few problems. Outgoings...

1:15:45
Yeah. Tell me about it.
1:15:50
And I'm breakin' in a new drummer.
1:15:58
I think I'm gettin' the hang o' this!
1:16:10
Yes!
1:16:14
Here yeh are.
1:16:16
About bleedin' time!
1:16:19
Jimmy, do we have to do this?
1:16:21
- We've no choice, Bernie.
- What did yeh get a gig so far away for?

1:16:24
- Cos they're payin' us money, that's why.
- But I could go to jail! Or lose me job!

1:16:28
We are bringin' soul
to the people, my angel.

1:16:31
No jury in the land would convict us.
1:16:33
- Are we goin' in or wha'?
- If we're caught here, we're fucked.

1:16:36
It's all right! Don't be worryin'.
1:16:44
What's that? A Mister Chippy van?
1:16:47
- We can't travel in that shit heap.
- Buddy Holly's last words.

1:16:51
- "We can't travel in that shit heap."
- Did Buddy Holly say that?

1:16:54
Before he flew to meet his destiny
on that storm-tossed night.

1:16:58
Will crashin' in a chipper van
make us famous?
