Call you tonight. Right, go on. Go on. Away. All right, so we're gonna go around the island and straight on. - Straight to Wales. - Okay. Straight on. Straight on.

I don't know. Who the hell brought a cowboy costume? Me. It's all I could find. No one wears a cowboy costume in a band. There's a cowboy in the Village People. And Adam Ant. Adam Ant is a highwayman. So we can have a highwayman, but we can't have a cowboy? Are you mentally ill? I got fangs in the joke shop. What are you gonna do with them?

Okay. You call as soon as you get there. - No messing, all right? - I will. Okay. All right. Hey, uh, before you go, I... wrote down some song lyrics. - Really? - Yeah, it's pretty stream of consciousness stuff, but it's about this kid and a girl. In the future. - Put some music to it sometime. - Okay. Wish I'd done this.

You see how bass guitar and the bass pedal are playing the same rhythm? You'll hear it now, wait. I told all of yous, you especially, shitting on the bed all the time. You can't put rabbits on the bed and not expect them to shit on your bed. A chord like... Yeah.

I think she's having an affair. What? Why? She gets a lift home from her boss a couple of times a week. She doesn't drive. What's wrong with that? She gets out of the car about 100 yards away from the house. It's a nervous thing.

What'd you think of the song? I really liked it. It's the only reason I'm here. Did you write it? Eamon wrote most of the music. So you wrote the lyrics? Cool.

# Standing in the corner # # Like an angel in disguise... # Hey. How's it going? Uh, here's the tape. What's this? Oh, that's the song; I mentioned it to you. Oh, you're the kid in the band.

That was a novelty act. You want to have actual sexual intercourse, right? - Yeah. What, what? - The girl. It's all about the girl, isn't it? Yeah, the girl, yeah. And you're gonna use somebody else's art to get her? Are you kidding? We're just starting. We need to learn how to play. Did the Sex Pistols know how to play? You don't need to know how to play. Who are you? Steely Dan? You need to learn how not to play, Conor. That's the trick. That's rock and roll. And that takes practice. And you're not a covers band, by the way. - Really? - No. Every school has a covers band. Every pub has a covers band. Every wedding has a covers band. And every covers band has a middle-aged member who'll never know whether they could've made it in the music industry or not because they never had the balls to write a song for someone else. Rock and roll is a risk. You risk being ridiculed. But I don't know how to write a song. Close that door and sit down. - Really? - It's gonna be a long night. I've school in the morning. This is school. "She's standing on the corner like an angel in disguise. "I want to try and warn her. She's got dangerous eyes." "Dangerous eyes." I like that. What does it mean? I don't know. What's the song about, Conor?

It's like when you don't know someone, they're more interesting. They can be anything you want them to be. Yeah. But when you know them, there's limits to them. No, that doesn't make any sense. What's it called? "The Riddle of the Model." So what about a rhythm like this?

I'll be in your band. I'll play guitar. And I'll help write songs. We could rehearse here 'cause my da's in Saint John of Gods. - Is that a pub? - No, Darren. It's a place where alcoholics go to get off the drink, stop beating up their wives and kids. Right. And neighbors. Who's gonna be the manager? Me. Have you managed bands before? No, I'm just breaking into the market. Got to get everything straight. Get everything down on paper first. Otherwise, the major record labels can rip you off when they come hunting. That's what me da says.

I'm more of a singer. I write songs, words, lyrics. But I haven't put them to music yet. What kind of music are yous gonna be doing? Well, I-I don't know yet. What d'you mean you don't know? You have to know what you're gonna be playing. What are you into? I'm a futurist. What does that mean? Like, uh, no nostalgia. Not like your da's band. Not looking backwards, just forwards. Oh, cool. Like Depeche Mode? - Okay. - Or Joy Division? Right. Or Duran Duran? What do you think of them?
