"Oh." "Jack, you bastard." "Fuckin' bowling alley." "Shit." "Jesus god." "bad Blake." "Welcome to pueblo." "I'm proud to meet you, sir." "Hey there." "I've been listening to you for a hell of a long time." "Did you have a good trip?" "Long, but good." "Yeah." "Played clovis, new Mexico, last night." "I saw some pretty country." "Glad to be here." "Well, down there is the bandstand." "I'll catch up with you later, but sure is good to have you, bad." "Makes my day." "And there's no smokin' in the alley, but you can sure finish that one." "I'll take a mcclure's up with a beer back, darlin'." "4.75." " Oh, it's on the tab." " No tab." "I'm bad Blake, darlin'." "I'm- well, hell, I am the band." "Jimmy." "Tab?" "Mr. Blake." "We have a real nice room for you over at the starlight inn, and, of course, all your meals are taken care of, but, uh" "I'm afraid we can't let you run a bar tab." "It's in the contract." "Damn." "Mr. Greene of Greene  gold, he put that in himself." "Did he?" "Yes, sir." "Well, if you and Jack have an agreement, we're gonna have to stick with that." "But don't you worry yourself about it." " How much?" " 4.75." "Mr. Blake, let me personally offer you all the free bowling you want." "Hold that, would you please?" "Yes, sir." "Hey, bad, this is Jack." "Listen, I didn't wanna tell you this till you came off this swing, but- the label cut so sweet, so bad." "Huh?" "Why, that fucker's still sellin'." "Well, it was slowing' down a lot." "You know what?" "Chains don't want it anymore." "Plus Tommy sweet's got nine albums out there now." "What about his new album?" "I'm gonna get off the road here in a couple weeks." "I can get right to it." "Tommy wants to know if you got any new material." "Oh, shit." "New material." "You know I don't have any new material." "Nothin' wrong with the old stuff." "Tommy thinks he's leaning too heavy on the old stuff." "He doesn't want people to think he's riding the gravy train." "That son of a bitch." "He has a lifetime pass on the gravy train." "Hey, bad, who's asking who for a record here?" "Jack, you jerk-off." "You get your ass out here to clovis-goddamn-new Mexico, you play in the piano bar of some fuckin' bowling alley, get up the next morning at 5:00 and drive 300 miles..." "With hemorrhoids so bad feels like you got a nest of fire ants up your ass, then you tell me about the gravy train." "You and Mr. world famous Tommy sweet-both of you try that sometime." "Why don't you sit down and write some songs, huh?" "Keep talkin'." "Keep talkin'." "Jesus god!" "What's the matter?" "Can't do it anymore?" "I'm tired of listening to your griping at everything." "You-you're capable of it." "Jack." "You keep goin' out every fuckin' night drinking." "Hey, hey, hey." "Listen to me." "I'm 57 years old." "I'm broke." "I got $10 in my pocket." "I sent you money when you were still in Texas." "So spend it wisely, my friend." "Yeah." "Fuck you." "Good-bye." "here we go." "All right, thank you." "Thanks a lot." "Mr. Blake?" "Oh." "I'll be goddamned-go-to-hell." "It really is you, ain't it?" "I can't believe it- bad Blake right here in my store." "I'm bill Wilson." "I'm a big fan of yours." "Here you go." "Here you go." "Here's your mcclure's." "I try to keep track of what all the stars drink." "Hey, you know what?" "My wife, Beverly-she is one of your biggest fans." "She'd flat-out die if she knew you were here." "Mmm." "But we're goin' to the show tonight." "And if you could sing "i don't know" for Beverly- you got it." "It'd mean the world to her." ""I don't know" for Beverly." "Yes, sir, old buddy, you can count on it." "Oh, hey, come here." "Come here." "I wanna be able to tell everyone..." "That I bought bad Blake a drink." "You're kidding me." "No." "Why, thank you." "Hey. "I don't know" for Beverly... and bill." "Yes." "All right, hold on." "Hold on." "Hey, Mr. Blake." "I'm Tony." "Tony and the renegades- your band for tonight." "Oh." "Yeah, of course." "Oh." "Uh, me and the boys are settin' up over at the alley..." "And was wonderin' what time to start rehearsing'." "Why, just as soon as you can and as often as you can." "That's the secret." "Uh-um, Mr. Blake?" "Mr. Blake?" "Sorry to bother you." "Um, I was just wonderin' what time you were comin' over." "Come here." "Yeah, I got some-some lead sheets here if y'all can read music." "Chord charts if you can't." "Here." "Take this cd." "That's for you." "Here's your whole kit." "And there's a playlist in there." "Watch your hand." "All right, I'm gonna meet you over there." "You guys go on." "Uh, Mr. Blake?" "It'd really mean a lot to us if you come over a little early- and we got to go over some leads." "Lead?" "Son, are they paying you more than they're paying me?" "I just thought maybe you could show us some of that old stuff..." "Like bad's boys used to do." "You taught Tommy sweet how to play guitar, didn't you?" "Listen to the cd." "Listen good, and, uh, go over those lead sheets." "I'll be over there in about an hour." "I'm gonna grab some supper." " All right." "Well, thank you, Mr. Blake." " Appreciate it." "Thought you weren't gonna show." "Son, I've played sick, drunk, divorced and on the run." "Bad Blake hasn't missed a goddamn show in his whole fuckin' life." "Now I'm playin' a fuckin' bowling alley backed by a bunch of hippies." "Ah." "You sure they ain't paying you more than they're paying me?" "Come on." "Showtime."

"It's been a long time since I played with a good piano player." "Oh, thanks, Mr. Blake." "That means the world to me." "I'm Wesley Barnes." "Mighty fine, Wesley." "You work before?" "Oh, when I was a kid." "I just do this for fun." "Oh." "Well, for fun and a couple of extra dollars." "Well, sure nice to run into somebody on the road who really is good." "It's gonna be a pleasure." "Can I ask you a favor, Mr. Blake?" ""Bad," buddy. "Bad." What can I do for you?" "You know, I hate to impose, especially since we just met." "But, see, I got this niece, and she's a writer." "She's tryin' to be a writer." "She writes local here in Santa fe." "I mean, it's not the New York times or anything, but anyway- she writes about music, and she would love to do an interview with you." "Ah." "Well, I haven't done one of them for years, but, yeah, you send your little niece around." " I'll be glad to help her out." " Oh, great." "We gonna play a little?" "Yeah, we gonna play some." "Mr. Blake?" " Oh." " Who the hell are you?" "Um, I'm Jean craddock from the sun scene." "I'm Wesley Barnes's niece." "I'm here for the interview." "Oh." "Oh." "Uh- yeah, I just, uh-i just got out of the shower." "I'm havin' dinner." "I'm sorry." "I'll just come back." "When's a good time for you?" "No, no, no." "Just wait outside." "Let me get my clothes on." "All right." "Jesus god." "Be right there." "All right." "Hi." "Come on in." "I'm so sorry." "I should have called." "No, no." "Uh, no-no pictures." "You want some steak or... a potato or something?" "No." "How about later?" "Which?" "Pictures." "Maybe on stage." "Oh, that'd be all right." "All right." "You want no roll or nothin'?" "All right." "Sit on right down." "Thank you." "All right." "Mind if I eat?" "No." "Tape recorder okay?" "Go ahead." "That's fine." "All right." "You always dress for dinner?" "So, how'd you learn music?" "Mmm." "My daddy." "He had this old washburn steel-string." "He couldn't play a lick on it." "I, you know, picked it up, started fooling' with it." " Guess that's how." " Right." "And what were you listenin' to?" "Bunch of people you probably never heard of." "Lulu belle and Scotty, Emmett Miller." "Georgia wildcats." "You ever hear of them?" "Uh, no, I never heard the Georgia wildcats." "Nah, I didn't figure you did." "How about Hank Williams?" "Mmm." "Gene autry?" "You know, Waylon and them boys?" "Right." "Lefty frizzell?" " You want a drink?" " No, thank you." "So, you said- you feel like your music is also influenced by the blues?" "Oh, yeah." "Son house, big bill broonzy." "We all owe our existence to them delta boys." "You ever want to do anything else?" "Play baseball." "I was pretty good, too, you know, for a while there." "I couldn't hit the curveball." "Well, I just figured I'd stick with the guitar, you know?" "Son of a bitch stayed where he was supposed to." "How about you?" "You always wanna be a writer?" "I didn't know what I wanted for a long time." "But now you do?" "Well, now I know what i don't want to do again." "Yeah." "Amen." " You married?" " I was." "One of those things you don't wanna do again?" "Not unless it's right." "Yeah." "How the hell do you know?" "Well, you tell me." "You've been married five times." "Jesus Christ." "Four times." "Come on." "Four times." "You gonna make another album with Tommy sweet?" "Two things I don't wanna talk about- multiple marriages and Tommy." "Right." "What's your real name?" "I'm bad Blake." "I wasn't born bad." "When I die, my tombstone will have my real name on it." "Until then, I'm just gonna stay bad." "It's an awful long time for people to have to wait to find out." "Mmm." "Maybe, maybe not." "You a daddy?" "You got any kids?" "Sweetie, I'm gonna have to start gettin' goin' here." "All right." "Can you give me just another half an hour after the show?" "Well, let's see how it goes, huh?" "I appreciate you having to do your work." "I understand that." "But let's just see how it goes." "Okay." "All right." "Thank you." "So, Wesley's, uh, what, your cousin?" "He's my uncle." "Oh." "That boy sure can play piano." "All right." "Thank you." "All right now."

"I" " I have, uh, loved country music my whole life." "Have you?" "Yeah." "I even know the "b" sides of your albums." "Oh, that's better than me." "I was thinking, if you weren't doing anything after the show tonight, we could get a late dinner..." "Or cup of coffee." "Well, I would, but I promised a reporter an interview." "That's all right." "I know you're in town for another night." "Another time would be fine." "I gotta get back to work." "Uh, could you play "get a hold on you" for me?" "I'd love to-right now." "thank you, Santa fe."

"I 'vebeenloved and I've been alone" "allmy life I've been a rollin' stone" "doneeverything that a man can do" "everything but get a hold on you  so, how did you- you played a gospel song in a bar." "I did." "How'd you get away with that?" "How'd you know?" "If you'd been doin' it as long as I have, you'd know those things." "Here you go." "All right." "Cheers." "What else you wanna know?" "Records." "What's your favorite?" "Oh, I've have to say "falling and flying."" "It made me a lot of money, that song." "Turned my whole life around." "You get tired of playing it?" "When I have to play it twice, three times a night." "But, you know, it's been too good to me." "Can't turn my back on it." "So, in today's world of artificial country music, who's real country?" "What?" "Was that a stupid question?" "Mmm!" "Hmm." "Is Tommy sweet real country?" "Tommy, oh, yeah." "He tries covering' it up." "I taught him country, you know?" "He won't admit it." "He's gotta compete with what's coming out of Nashville today." "But, yeah, he's real country." "How'd you meet him?" "I don't wanna talk about Tommy." "All right." "What do you wanna talk about?" "I wanna talk about how bad you make this room look." "I never noticed what a dump it was until you came in here." "I haven't seen somebody blush in I don't know how long." "Well, I can't help it." "My capillaries are close to the skin." "Where you from anyway?" "I'm from enid, Oklahoma." "Of course you are." "What's the most important thing about you, Oklahoma?" "I've got a son-buddy." "He's four." "He's at his babysitter." "I'd better go get him." "Thank you for talking to me." "Did you get what you need?" "Could always use more." "Yeah, well- come to tomorrow night's show." "We can continue where we left off." "All right." "Okay then." "Nighty-night." "Hey, bad." "I got great news for you." "Now, I'm bustin' my ass on this." "So write it down." "Cancel Benson, Arizona, on your itinerary." "You're into Phoenix, Arizona, sun pavilion." "00 sharp." "How's that?" "Pavilion?" "Hey, I just called to tell you you're out of the red bison lounge..." "And you're opening a major show in Phoenix." "Opening?" "Shit, I don't open- bad, cut the shit." "Now, where else are you gonna play in front of 12,000 people?" " Open for who?" " You're opening for Tommy." "No, no." "No." "No goddamn way." "I haven't been able to convince him about doing the record yet." "But at least I got him to agree to this." "No, I'm not gonna do it, Jack." "I'm not gonna open for Tommy." "I'll open for somebody else, but not Tommy." "Who else are you gonna open for?" "You're gonna open for Madonna?" "You want me to call her?" "The dream of every sideman is that someday the front man, whose ass he's been starin' at for years, is gonna open for him." "I don't owe Tommy sweet that dream." "I don't owe him a fuckin' thing." "We both know Tommy owes you big." "But we also both know how much this is worth." "I'm gonna call you back this afternoon." "There is no time, bad." "Yes or no?" "I've got to have time to think about this." "Come on." "No time." "Yes or no?" "Yes, goddamn it!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "Yes." "Fuck, yes." "All right." "Okay." "Jesus Christ." "It's like pullin' it out of you." "Now don't fuck it up, all right?" "Hey, let me ask you something." "Am I gonna actually get to go backstage and meet Tommy and everything?" "That's very funny, bad, but I don't have time for this shit." "Good-bye." "See you later, you fuckin' asshole." "all right, boys, let's wing this thing tejano style." "I'm gonna give you what you want." "Uh-huh!"

"You know how hard it is to find a sitter at 1:00 in the morning?" "I get off work at 1:00." "I know how hard it is to find everything." "I'm just glad you found me." "Who's, uh-who's watching your boy?" "Oh, a friend." "He just got there." " You want a drink?" " All right." " You wanna follow me?" " All right." "All right." "Are you gonna ask me more questions?" "Just a couple." "All right, so- so where do all those songs come from?" "Life, unfortunately." "Is this really what you wanna talk about?" "No, I guess not." "For some reason I can't explain," "I keep feeling obliged to apologize for these ugly rooms and, well, being less than you probably imagined me to be." "Is this that famous country charm?" "I was never famous for charm." "It's not too late to start." "You, uh-you want something else for your article?" "Oh." "Let me just get my recorder." "Come here." "Come here." "I'm opening..." "For Tommy in Phoenix tomorrow." "Bad Blake's hit the big time." "Oh, that's great, right?" "That's what my agent says." "You gonna come with me?" "Hmm?" "Will you?" "You're kidding." "This is my serious look." "Come on." "Bad." "I can't." "All right." "How about..." "I come over this morning and fix you and your boy..." "Some world-famous bad Blake biscuits, huh?" "What do you say?" "All right." "Now you just hold that right there." "There." "Now let me see your other finger." "Hold it like that." "Can you do that?" "Mm-hmm." "You right-handed or left-handed?" "Oh, that one?" "Okay." "Put that there like that." "And cock this finger." "Here's your trigger finger." "About like that." "Wait." "Now here's the most important part." "Take a bite of that biscuit." "Yeah, that's it." "You feel that flour and that butter coursing through your body, huh?" "Giving you a power you never thought you had?" "Uh-huh." "Your shirt gettin' all tight with muscle?" "Mm-hmm." "Whole worlds have been tamed by men who ate biscuits." "Now shoot." " And he scores!" "" " Did you score?" "That's how we get it done in Texas." "Yes!" "Gimme five!" "Ow!" "Ooh!" "Yeah!" "That's a real nice boy you got there." "Thank you." "He's not around men much." "I worry about that sometimes." "What about his daddy?" "Oh." "I made a lot of mistakes." "I'm just trying not to make 'em twice." "Good boy-good mom." "Good biscuits." "All right." "Okay." "I'll see you after a while, huh?" "You take care now." "So long."

"So what's your equipment like?" "Fender tremolux." "That's it?" "That's it, pal." "Man, you got a preference-Marshall, peavey, vox?" "I like my Fender." "You like your Fender." "Okay, no sweat." "We'll Mike it right into the P.A." "Where's your stuff?" "'78 suburban out back." "I'll take care of it." "You go on at 7:30." "You get 45 minutes." "Stay on that." "You can't go more than three minutes over." "Tommy's on at 9:00." "He's off at 11:00." "These are the bum steers- your backup." "Ah." "This is the big time, boys." "How you doin'?" "Bad." "I'm lookin' forward to playin'." "Let's drink some of this booze, huh?" "Let's do it, baby." "Two bars of "d" and then we hit the top of the bridge." "Go on, count it off, Johnny." "One, two." "One, two, three, four!" "neverseeitcomin' till it's gone ." "No, no, no." "Bear." "Bear." "Bear." "I need kick and snare." "Turn down the damn guitars." "You're drowning out my lyrics." "The mix is good, man." "You can't hear what I'm hearing out here." "Yeah, you'd be surprised." "Set it the way I tell ya and leave it." "The mix is just fine, man." "Trust me on this." "Bear, I'm an old man." "I get grumpy." "Humor me." "Damn sound men." "They try to fuck up the opening act." "You know?" "It makes the headliner sound that much better." "That's their fuckin' job." "You got another half hour there, cowboy." "Hey there, partner." "We're gonna be up on this stage till we get the mix the way I want it." "You set the mix the way I want it, or I'm gonna be up here rehearsing right through Tommy's set." "All right." "Let's take it from the top of the bridge." "Let's see how bear does." "One, two, three, four." "now the guitars are sounding right." "neverseeitcomin' till it's gone ." "Thank you, bear." "Much better." "Tommy!" "Can we get a picture?" "Oh." "Well, well." "Heard you might be here." "You son of a bitch." "Sit on down." "You always knew the right thing to say." "How the hell are you, bad?" "I'm worse." "That's about right, I reckon." "What, you give up on the Southern comfort, huh?" "I still drink it on stage." "It's good for the throat." "Yeah, that's what they tell me." "Too damn sweet for me." "Hell, I never liked it either." "But when you're one of bad's boys, you gotta be able to put away the whiskey." "I'm sorry." "I-i hate to interrupt." "Can I get an autograph, Tommy?" "Thanks." "Sure." "You're my favorite." "I-i got all your records." "Thank you." "But this is the, uh- this is the autograph you need." "That's bad Blake." "Taught me everything I know." "Cool." "Great." "Thanks." "I'll be at your show tonight." "I may even make it to San Diego." "Appreciate your support." "I was thinkin' about- about our tours together." "They were some good times, boy." "Oh." "Look, I'm really glad you agreed to do this, bad." "Oh, god." "Are you kiddin'?" "I need the money." "Wasn't for this, I'd be playing some saloon in Benson, Arizona." "Yeah." "You remember that time we, uh- we broke down on the desert in west Texas?" "Sat out all day waiting for that goddamn wrecker." "Well-just you and me and a case of warm beer." "Those were the days." "Yeah." "Ain't remembering wonderful?" "How's the tour going?" "It's a grind." "Fifty dates in two months." "Oh." "How about yours?" "I'm out for a month." "Six states." "Pickup bands?" "Yeah." "That's a ballbuster." "Hell, we should've gotten together earlier, done the whole tour." "We tried that." "There was just too much goin' on, bad." "That damn movie shoot down in Mexico." "Jill was on my ass all the time." "Yeah." "Would've been a hell of a tour though." "Oh, yeah." "Hell of a tour." "Aw, shit." "I'm sorry, bad, it didn't work out." "I was tryin' to keep my marriage together." "Don't hold that against me." "I got a career too." "And a marriage or two i wanted to hold together." "I know." "I know." "You gave me my start, bad." "Don't think I don't remember that." "But I got a life too." "Well, well." "Those are the ugliest goddamn boots I've ever seen in my life." "Was the salesman threatenin' to shoot your dog?" "Oh." "Hey." "How come we're not doin' another album?" "Why won't you do it?" "Hold up now." "I never said I wouldn't." "Dmz just doesn't think it's the right thing to do." "That's all." "Mmm, I think it is." "Well, you may be right." "They want a couple more solos first." "Then we do a duet." "And you got first shot." "I already told them." "You know, I need money now." "I'm 57 years old." "Career's goin' nowhere." "I need something to get it jump-started." "They won't give me a damn solo album." "I need this, goddamn it." "I really do." "I swear, bad." "I can't get them to budge on this one." "But there is a way you can make some money if you want to." "Enlighten me." "Songs." "I ain't got no new material." "Everything I'm hearing is straight crap." "You write me five new songs, I'll give you back end." "I ship two million albums every time I release one." "I haven't written a new song in three years." "Too many goddamn songs." "You write some of the best material out there, bad." "I want some." "Wrote." "Wrote." "Not write." "Well, I'm glad to see you still got old bessie." "Ah, she runs like a top." "Do it, bad." "You got a couple months." "See you tonight." "Mr. Greene has sent five boxes of product..." "For you to sell here at the show." "Sell?" "What are you talkin' about?" "He sent 500 units of memories for you to sell." "Aw, shit." "I sing, I play." "I don't sell my goddamn records at my concerts."

"Never too late." "You called, and it's done." "All right?" "It's complete." "Now, you're on the right track." "You just-just keep goin', 'cause he's your son." "Right?" "Well, he's all I got." "Well, you keep after him." "Do what you gotta do." "It's like, you know, you reminded me." "That song by Billy Joe shaver." "I'm gonna live forever."

"But I'm not sure it'd be such a good idea." "What are you talking about?" "It's a great idea." "Why would you say that?" "You sure you're okay?" "I'm worried about you." "Don't waste a minute worrying about me." "There's nothin' wrong that a visit wouldn't cure." "How's buddy boy doin'?" "He's fine." "So, you gonna come?" "Can you reach it?" "Hey, there." "Oh, you got your car!" "Go through the tunnel there." "Well, I think he's had it." "You all right, bud?" "He's eatin'- he's eatin' in his sleep."

"Is where Sam Houston and his boys beat Santa Ana and his Mexicans." "Wasn't for this spot, we'd all be speakin' Mexican." "That's where Texas got its star, right there." "You speak any Mexican, bud?" "Hey, that's pretty good." "Wow, bud." "Where's that big turtle?" "What do you see there?" "Where'd he go?" "I think there's a lobster that was in here." "You gettin' tired?" "Oh." "He's got so much energy, he wears me out sometimes." "Why don't you go back to that park?" "Take a load off."

"Which-which bar, sir?" "Oh, hell, I don't know." "It was a little dark bar." "Okay." "All stations, we got a lost boy." "Four years old." "Brown hair." "Name's buddy." "Report back, please." "Thank you." "Okay." "Sir, why don't you stay here with me, okay?" "No, I gotta go find him." "He's lost." "He's from new Mexico." "I'm supposed to meet his mother." "I understand that." "We're gonna find him." "But I need you to stay here." "All our guys are out looking for him." "All right, sir?" "Sir, how much have you had to drink today?" "I had a drink." "A drink?" "What goddamn difference does that make?" "Well, you lost him, sir." "Yeah, I lost him." "I'm gonna go find him." "Bud!" "You seen a little boy?" "What's going on?" "No, they're gonna find him, hon." "Where's buddy?" "They got all these guys lookin' for him." "What?" "No need to worry." "No-guys are looking for him?" "I stopped just for a second- you stopped to get a drink?"

"You don't even have a ticket." "Come on." "God, I should've listened to my instincts." "Every fuckin'- every single bone in my body told me not to get on that plane." " It's gonna be okay, Jeannie." "Just- - no." "Everything is not okay." "He's four years old." "He's scared half to death." "You know I wouldn't do anything to hurt that boy." "Well, you did do something to hurt him!" "You and every other man in my life." "Just nothing but self-involved assholes." "Come on now." "Just calm down." "Oh!" "Let me-now his backpack" "Jeannie." "Can't we talk about it?" "No, don't you touch me!" "It's too fuckin' hard!" "Stop!" "Let me drive you to the airport." "Come on." "I can do that." "Sorry, bud." "Let me drive you at least." "Let me take that for you." "Thank you." "All right." "You start to get your seat belt on." "Jean." "Jeannie!" "Hello?" "Wayne?" "Bad?" "I wanna get sober." "With that experience, i realized that I had hit rock bottom."
