You're coming in too fast.

Right at the top of

the verse there, ok?

So why don't you just bring

it back we'll do it again.

So what's it like to be working

with a living legend, man?

Excuse me?

Charlie.

Can you do me a favor?

Don't film me.

What's your

problem, motherf***er?

You want the sound

to stand out, right?

You have to do it right.

Listen dude,

I've been playing music

since before you

were f***ing born.

Hell I was singing

country western before

I was even f***ing

born, when I was in

my mama's belly my daddy

was playing the guitar

to sooth her country, rockabilly,

rock n roll, folk, gospel,

man I f***in' played it all and

I f***in' played with everyone!

So you sit there you

little f***ing snot nose

California f***ing

hippie, and tell me

Charlie King Nash how to

play my f***ing guitar

and how to hit my notes right!

You know what... I'm...

I'm hungry, are you hungry?

He's righteous.

I'm gonna piss.

I'm gonna join you.

Oh man, you alright?

God, whoo!

Damn I have not been this

drunk since 1994, man.

F***ing Johnny Cash, right?

The king, man.

I've never played with him.

I met the man once, backstage

in 'Austin City Limits'

before my show, right, and we're

talking about this and that,

right before I went on

stage Johnny says to me,

he says something that

really stuck with me,

he said, "Charlie,

build on your failures,

"you use them as

stepping stones,

"you shut the door on the past,

"you don't forget your mistakes,

"but you don't dwell on them,

"you don't give 'em time,

"you don't give 'em space,

"you don't give 'em energy. "

And you were

motherfuckin' right, Lev.

My lyrics are sh*t, there

may have been some truth

to them 10, f***ing

25 years ago, but

man I've been in that

frame of mind way too long.

I just let it

consume me, you know,

just feeling sorry for myself.

I grew up loving

your music man.

Thanks brother.

You did me a service

taking me here tonight.

Yeah.

Woo!

That was truth in

there man thank you!

I have not felt this

alive in years!

Holy sh*t it's

Charlie King Nash.

Hey Charlie! Charlie!

Rock and roll Charlie!

Are you alright?

What the f***, man?

No, it's cool man.

Take your friend

go f***ing down the street.

It's alright

man, it's alright.

You're lucky we

don't sue your f***ing ass.

Hey, sleep on this, b*tch!

Right there, f***ing sit on it

and sleep on it motherf***er.

Hey.

Wow!

In all seriousness

everybody has a drink?

I want to propose a toast

to this young prodigy

who I like to call

the California kid.

Who has retaught this

old dog that it's always

important to just be real,

be honest, be truthful.

To Lev!

To Lev!

Real talent.

I wanna hear some

of the stuff already.

Yeah well we gonna

hold back on that for a second.

She's got spunk,

I really like her.

I bet you do.

What's with the cynicism?

Your friend's really

happy with her.

He's a nervous

wreck and she's a f***ing

train wreck waiting to

happen, look at her.

Just pull up till

you see this car right here.

Why are we gonna stop?

'Cause I want...

it's just takes two minutes.

Just pull in.

Park right here,

yeah right here.

I think we

should just go home.

Look, you

stay in the car,

and you keep your

eye out for cops,

because they're always

in this parking lot,

and they always try

and f*** with me.

Oh babe look at this

lamp, this is amazing.

This will be great in your home

studio that we build, right?

Yeah, does it work?

I don't know

if it works, that's why

we take it home

and we plug it in,

we put a light bulb in

and if you don't like it

then I would just sell it.

Oh my god, who would give

a chair like this away?

Babe look at that chair.

Babe look at this chair.

Why do you need all

this garbage in your life?

It's not

garbage, and I can fix it.

This gives me something to

do when I'm feeling lonely.

Oh you're lonely.

I'm right here.

See that

took two minutes.

And it made me happy.

I love you.

Baby, I'm so mad

at you right now.

Let's get a drink.

No, I, no, no.

Bye everyone!

Let's go somewhere today.

Let's just get in

the car and drive.

Hi babe.

Hi.

How was your day?

Good, really good.

Where are the smokes?

There was a whole

pack of cigarettes.

I threw them away.

Frankie, I'm having

a really hard day.

Ok, I.. Ronnie and

Charlie are just...

I'm just not in the mood

for pranks, alright?

So where are the cigarettes.

I'm not,

it's not a prank.

They're in the garbage can.

Here?

Why did you do that?

Oh, what?

What did you do with

all this alcohol?

I drained it.

You drunk?

No.

You just been

drinking all day?

No, f*** you!

No I put it down

the kitchen sink.

There was a whole bottle of sixty

year old single malt in there.

Yeah I know that.

I'm pregnant.

We're pregnant.

You know what, it's

weird for me too, ok?

Hold on, hang on.

Tell me that again,

just say it, say it.

Start over, start over.

Start over?

You heard me I said

I was pregnant.

Oh god.

You know what you're

being really insensitive.

We're having a baby?

Yeah.

We're having a baby?!

Yes.

We're having a baby?

Yeah.

We're having

a f***ing baby!

You see I told

you that the husbands come.

We should invite

Ronnie and Sadie over

and I'll cook us dinner

one of these days.

Maybe.

He's your

best friend, right?

Yeah.

You see, see, see?

There's the shape

of it right there.

Still a little too tiny to

actually make out all the organs.

Ok, everything looks terrific.

Make sure you don't forget

to take your prenatals.

See you in six weeks.

But you like miss

drinking like wine or anything?

I mean you can't

have wine right?

No, I'm

third trimester.

You really can?

Just one

Really?

Yeah, but it's probably

not going to do anything so...

Game was f***ing close,

I was just sweating

bullets just staring

at the f***ing

f*ggot in the corner.

If the Lakers were gonna lose I

was gonna f***ing beat his ass.

The hormones

do do things to you.

Well your

couscous is amazing.

It makes me

look like a genius,

it's really easy.

Will you write it

down for me, I'll make it.

Wait a minute,

you're gonna write it down?

You've never cooked a

goddamn thing in your life.

You're done?

Thanks babe.

Yeah I'm done.

You sure?

I'm going to go and

see if he needs some help.

Thank you.

You're

from Pittsburgh too?

No, I'm born and

raised in the west coast.

Oh, I thought you

guys met in Pittsburgh.

No I met Lev when

we were 10, middle school.

I didn't know that

he had moved here, actually.

You don't really

know much about Lev do you?

No it just, we

don't really talk about it.

I understand why

Lev would talk about it

he's just not a chatty guy

but you seem pretty open.

What's that

supposed to mean?

I don't know, you should

know what's in your closet.

You enjoying your wine?

Yes I am, you

enjoying your water?

I am.

Very good.

Hey, I can put this out.

No no no just blow in

the other direction that's fine.
