Single didn't even chart in the States.

You toss in a review like that-

But they don't know anything.

I can hear the clack already.

People going on about whether he deserved

the Monterey invitation.

What the f*** are we here for?

What-What-What do we do all this sh*t for?

Mitch?

Where's your old lady?

I don't know.

Girl runs around a lot.

Ah, there's others.

Whispering in his ear, filling him up.

Ah, just ginning him up.

It's disrespectful, you know.

Running round on you like that.

Jimi and the lads are supposed to

be playing the Saville Theatre.

Brian Epstein's chucking this big do...

to celebrate the new Beatles disc

and the boys are gonna be there.

If Jimi has another performance

like that last one...

we could lose Monterey.

We'll be done before we're started.

Where's your girlfriend?

She's-She's at home tonight.

She's not coming out?

Hey! Hey!

Come here.

- C-Come on. Come here.

- Go on. Go ahead.

Come over here.

Okay, one minute.

Sit down. Sit down with me some.

Come on, sit down. Sit down.

- SPEAKERS:
MAN: Gimme some lovin'

- Gimme, gimme some lovin'

Gimme some lovin'

Gimme some lovin'

Gimme some lovin'

Every day'

Hey. You wanna come grab a drink?

Yeah.

No, she's all right. She's fine.

Yeah, I'm fine. I'll see you in a minute.

All right.

Well, I feel so good,

everything is getting higher

You better take it easy

'cause the place is on fire

I'm just gonna go and ring someone up, all

right? I'll be back in a minute.

So glad we made it

So glad we made it

You got to

- Gimme some lovin'

- Gimme some lovin'

Gimme some lovin'

Gimme some lovin'

Gimme some lovin'

Every day'

Hiya. it's me.

You all right, darling?

You gonna come down?

Yeah, place is all right.

It's about half full.

There'll be-There'll be

more people down later-

Well, I feel so good,

everything is getting higher

You better take it easy

'cause the place is on fire

Been a hard day,

nothing went' too good

Now I'm gonna relax

just like everybody should

Hey, Jimi. Great show.

- Oh, thank you, man.

- Yeah, love your stuff, man.

Wow, thank you.

I really appreciate it. Thank you.

What is this, huh? What is this, huh?

- Get off!

- You disrespect me!

You disrespect me? Huh?

Who are you talking to, huh?

Who you talkin' to, huh?

- You disrespect me!

- Keep him away!

No, I'm all right. I'm all right.

I'm okay. I'm okay.

- I said get him away!

- You disrespect me?

- Are you gonna be okay?

- Yeah.

- You gonna be all right?

- Yeah, thank you.

Okay.

Cool?

I'm supposed to take, um-

I'm supposed to

take these for the pain...

and then, uh, these to help me sleep.

Mmm, um, later, not now.

I'm not-not supposed to sleep tonight.

I wrote these for you.

You write out lyrics

you can't even read yourself...

and that's supposed to make

everything all right?

I never doubted you.

That wasn't me, that was you.

You were the one. That was your shite.

You got no one to blame

but you.

That's the b*tch of it.

When it comes down to things-

it's your own goddamn fault.

You know, you think getting it on

with a rock 'n' roller...

is gonna be nothing but good times.

They're the ones that make this sh*t real,

but it never gets real for them.

Their whole life-

a big motherfuckin' blowj*b.

Can't keep thinking

it's something that it's not.

Him f***ing around...

and sooner or later

he's gonna f*** his way back to you.

He ain't gonna f*** his way back to you.

He's just f***ing with you.

Why would you say that?

Why would you say something like that?

'Cause I'm your sister.

I'm not gonna let you sit there and fall

apart, thinking he loves you...

when he don't love anything but himself.

You worn out, baby?

You look worn out.

Know what you need?

Hold on.

You have any, uh-Let me see right here.

Yeah, you got some.

You know what? You just need

to take a couple of these, man.

You know?

Just take a couple of them.

Help you sleep that sh*t right off.

Maybe take a few.

When I'm feeling all-

If you need anything, I'll just be outside.

CHORD, FEEDBACK]

BLUES]

Hey, lads, thanks for coming.

What's happening?

All your love

I miss lovin'

All your kiss

I miss kissin'

All your love I miss lovin'

All your love I miss kissin'

Before I met you, baby

I didn't know

what I was missing

All the love, pretty baby'

I have in store for you

All the love, pretty baby'

I have in store for you

The way I love you, baby

I know you love me too

Sorry, man.

Have a good show.

Jimi.

Have a f***ing good show.

Hey, put-put this on.

We're gonna open with that.

The title track.

If we put this in the key of E

and go to town with it, man-

it only came out two days ago.

Half an hour

before the show, you want

us to learn a new song?

- We're a band. Come on, man.

- The Beatles are in the audience.

It's a f***ing insult.

Only if we f*** it up.

Come on. Let's have fun with living, man.

Oh, that's cool, man.

All right, so Mitch, you start it off...

- and you give us a little rhythm and then-

- I'll give you four, yeah?

- You-You start it off with the beat, right.

- Gimme four.

Let's keep it groovy.

Yeah, I like that.

And then I'm gonna do a solo act

after the first verse.

- Okay, yeah.

- Just on the chorus.

We apologize for the delay...

in this evening's performance

by The Jimi Hendrix Experience.

We hope to bring you the show presently.

Hey, Jimi, listen.

Mmm? Yeah. Yeah.

Hey, I like those pants, Noel.

Beautiful, man.

Ladies and gentlemen, honored guests...

The Jimi Hendrix Experience.

Hey, your ears.

Watch out for your ears, man.

Yeah, your ears. Watch out for your ears.

Hey!

It was 20 years ago today

Sgt. Pepper taught the band

to play

They've been going in and out

of style

But they're guaranteed

to raise a smile

So may I introduce to you

The act you've known

for all these years

Lonely Hearts Club Band

We hope you will enjoy

the show

We're Sgt. Pepper's

Lonely Hearts Club Band

Sit back

and let the evening go

I don't really want to stop

the show

But I thought you might

like to know

That the singer's

going to sing a song

And he wants you all

to sing along

So let me introduce to you

The one and only

Billy Shears

Sgt. Pepper's

Lonely Hearts Club Band

Yeah.

Get in to it, man!

Oh, yeah. Hey, Mitch,

I'd like to go.

Jimi?

Yeah?

I'd like to go with you.

We've got touring right after, you know.

If it works out, you know, we'll see.

Well, just for the festival then.

I'll just go for the festival.

Then I'll come straight home.

You should rest.

- No, I'm fine.

- Rest.

I'm good enough to sit and watch you.

I've never been to San Francisco before.

It's Monterey.

There's nothing there for you.

You wouldn't like it.

You know, I'm gonna go and then come right

back. it's no big thing at all, okay?

- There were like rats and everything.
