Almost Famous (2000) Soundboard Edit

Actually, I'm alone.

Ainsworth, I'll see you around, man.

All dressed up and no place to go.

All of you

Although, some money would be nice.

And I don't forgive myself. Do you?

And if you ever get lonely...

And let's just pause and appreciate a man like that.

And she says to tell you, I know what's going on.

And sometimes a little cough syrup.

And the chicks are great.

And to all the folks out there: Smegma.

And you...

Anybody?

Aren't I?

As long as you can't see what's in this hand...

Because all the guys are good, but he could be great.

Beware, beware...

Big deal. I'm a year younger. They're 13, I'm 12.

Blackmore, Gillan.

But I grow it.

But if Bowie's doing Lou...

But on the distasteful subject of money...

But there's money to be made.

But...

Cars leave for the party at 6.

Come by in a few minutes for that interview

Come on, boys, pick it up! We're an hour and a half late.

Could we get off this tour

Damn it, I'm gonna enjoy this.

Does Alice know you're here?

Don't forget me, okay?

Don't worry, William.

Don't worry. Come to the radio interview tonight. Okay?

Doris, we miss you!

Famous people are just more interesting.

Feed some liquid into your stomach.

Fever Dog.

Found you a pass.

Full of hope, and the dream that everything is possible.

Go away!

Good evening, San Diego!

Got a pen?

Groupies sleep with rock stars because they're famous

Guess I was wrong. One of them saved her life.

Harry Houdini, please.

Have you ever...? The most brilliant piece of gobbledygook ever!

He had a message. He said:

He says I'm a yes person and you are raising us in a no environment.

He's a drunk, posing as a poet.

He's a smart, goodhearted 15 year old kid...

He's just a kid.

He's under the name Harry Houdini

He's very Bob Dylan in Don't Look Back. He's trying to write.

Hello. This is Ben Fong Torres calling from Rolling Stone.

Hey, guys! Check it out. William doesn't have any pubes.

Hey, Lady!

Hey, Red Dog!

Hey, Russell.

Hey!

Hi, welcome to Swingo's. You must be Stillwater.

Him with honours.

Honey, you're too sweet for rock'n'roll.

Housekeeping.

How does it feel to be the mother of the best rock journalist we've met?

I always tell the girls, Never take it seriously.

I am a golden god!

I am dark and mysterious and pissed off!

I can't breathe, man

I could go with the crew, but that'd be pathetic...

I could keep going, but my glass is full.

I don't want to hear any more. Shut up, Jeffrey!

I have to pee

I just got off the phone with Rolling Stone.

I know, I know. It's all happening.

I love all of you.

I love this kitchen. I fucking love this kitchen!

I mean, you know, that's just the way I usually do it.

I need a new crowd

I need you to do that thing that fixes the garbage disposal

I never believed you anyway. You're too good looking and talented.

I only do this for a very few people, and I think we should do it together.

I think we should work on those last words!

I think you should be writing for us. Any ideas?

I told him he could write what he wanted.

I understand.

I used to be able to hear..

I'll always tell you the truth.

I'm a journalist for Creem magazine.

I'm bored.

I'm flying over Tupelo, Mississippi, with America's hottest band...

I'm getting good stuff out here.

I'm going to England with Deep Purple in an hour.

I'm only the fucking lead singer!

I'm responsible for his moral conduct.

I'm worried about people using her

I'm worried, man.

I'm... I'm gay!

I've made a decision. I'm going travelling to India.

If you like Lou.

It allows you to forgive yourself if you suck

It doesn't sound like music anymore.

It only takes 18 minutes a page.

It'll be a rough set down, but we should be fine.

It's a T shirt

It's all happening.

It's all happening. I must vamoosh.

It's me, Polexia!

It's Quince...

It's safe to say popularity sucks.

It's...

Jeff and Russell are the band's figureheads...

Just enjoy the ride.

Just help me get my interview.

Lady Goodman

Lady Goodman.

Lggy Pop!

Life. Death.

Listen, pal. Your shoddy stage setup almost killed my guitarist!

Lock the gates!

Look, do the story.

Love you

Make a live album! This is your last tour!

Man, I need some...

Man, take good care of her in San Francisco, man.

Me too.

Memory of a Free Festival, that's vintage Bowie.

Mom, I'm 15.

My son is very important to me too.

Never

No exploiting our bodies and hearts.

No, you can trust him. He's a fan.

No. Hold on.

Now, I don't hear it..

Oh, it's okay. I'm easy to forget.

Oh, my God!

Oh, the band's over.

Okay

Okay, I got it.

One day...

Penny Lane! God's gift to rock'n'roll.

Polexia!

Really good. But here I am telling secrets...

Remember this: Don't do it...

Russell, wake up

Russell. So, what is it you love about music?

Sapphire!

School.

Seat back and tables locked.

See, friendship is the booze they feed you...

She knows Leslie's coming to New York tomorrow. Everyone understands.

She named you Lady?

She was the one who said, No more sex.

She'll be back.

She'll eat him alive.

Side proposition to the winner: For 50 bucks and a case of Heineken...

Small bills on the outside. Call if they're drunk.

So I'll see you guys in Topeka, okay?

Some coffee.

Some of us have wives.

Somebody help him.

Stillwater? Fucking kid's doing drugs.

Thank you!

Thanks. I got in with Stillwater.

That's great

That's great.

That's William over there. Hey, William!

The Doors? Jim Morrison?

The Enemy!

The Enemy? Stop fucking looking at me!

The guitar and songwriting of Russell Hammond

The indefinable thing when people catch something from your music.

The mistakes. There's only one and it makes the song.

The song is Love Thing.

Then you forget.

There's a single woo at the end of the second verse

There's hope for you yet, Russell.

There's no bigger Zeppelin fan than Vic

Trying to reconcile the brain with ancient urges.

Unmerciful.

Vallencourt, are you getting on the bus or what?

Very dear, very close friend of Lester Bangs.

Want to see me feed a mouse to my snake?

We are not groupies.

We hope you all enjoyed yourselves, and we'll see you all again in 1974.

We inspire the music. We're here because of the music.

We'll be at the Riot House all week.

We're playing you tomorrow night, man.

We're professionals. I don't need to tell you this.

We've gotta stop them.

Well, tell your friend...

What am I to you?

What are you saying? Did Russell say something?

What do you think of Russell?

What is your role in Stillwater?

What kind of beer?

When did you get so professional?

When you play a great show like tonight...

Who do we got here?

William Miller

Wow! Cute.

Write what you want.

Yeah, yeah. Great.

Yeah.

You are home.

You doing coke again?

You got a great kid here. Don't worry.

You gotta take what you can, when you can, while you can..

You never did half of what you said.

You okay?

You put too much pressure on him. When he rebels in some odd way...

You saved the tour. That's good enough for now, okay?

You scream...

You seem cooler.

You travelled a long way to pay that promoter to electrocute you.

You were sleeping with Penny, that fucking groupie...

You weren't honest. And worse, you wasted our time.

You'll meet girls. They'll fly you places, offer drugs.

You're 18 and I can't stop you.

You're free of Mom.

You're not a what?

You're two years ahead.

Your room is real.

Anita? Hey, Mom.

Come to Cleveland. I can't go to Cleveland.

Crazy. Crazy.

Electrical storm? Buckle up tight

Good luck. Thanks.

Grow it. You're funny

Hey, I met you. You are not cool. I know.

I get the gist. Right.

I know. She freaked me out.

I like them. Give me The Guess Who.

I slept with Marna, Dick. I did too.

I think you know Red Dog. Hey, brother!

I'll call Frank Barcelona! You don't know him!

It's Stillwater! Oh, my God!

Keep playing that song. All right.

Mom... Where are you?

No. Okay, this isn't funny. No, come on!

Play on. Miss Penny Lane.

Right. Just blow jobs, that's it.

San Diego! Ready, baby?

She's here. To Lenny

That's what Lester said. As long as this is just a hobby

They pad the grades too much. Eleven?!

This is what I was talking about. Russell, excuse me.

Up! Please.

What about Boo? What?

You know about the Riot House, right? I think I've heard of it.

You know that single woo? Yeah! I know that woo!

You slept with Jeff? Yeah, but it didn't count.

You sure? Ask me again.

You're the enemy. Are you 18? Yes.

... from Troy, Michigan:

... to glorify worthless rock stars like Stillwater.

... to San Diego.

... with infinite potential.

... would you please welcome to Cleveland...

...all of us together.

...and it's all out there.

...and then we'll leave those ungrateful fools behind.

...and told them the truth

...and you are... William Miller

...and you gotta do it now.

...and...

...but the true Stillwater fan...

...Ed, Larry. I really love your band

...for a forum that's gloriously and righteously dumb.

...happiness...

...just you and me. Absolutely.

...l've made a decision.

...Lisa Robinson?

...that move swiftly, high above our city...

...that my last words...

...they'll rewrite it, you know, turn it into swill.

...to the one guy you're not supposed to tell your secrets to.

...we all have a sixth sense, intuition.

...we should wear completely different clothes...

...William Miller.

...you just go to the record store and visit your friends.
