[the band's thinking of their name]
But I thought you already decided on The Echoes.
Jimmy Nah, some band in Buffalo's the Echoes. And I wasn't wild about that.
Let's just call us The - Band You're About To Hear.
C Chad
How about The Corvettes?
Jimmy Is that The Corvettes, or the Chordvettes?
C Chad
No, Corvettes, like the car.
Jimmy Well see, I was thinking like the Chord...[writes Chordvettes] Chordvettes, like chords in our music.
[Guy walks in]
Is that "Skitch" Patterson?
C Chad
Here he is, Erie's lone beatnik.
BP The Bass Player
How about the Tempos? Ya know, tempos?
Not the Tempos, the Tempos. I was in a band already called The Tempos, and we were... terrible.
C Chad
Hey Guy, weren't you the drummer for the Tempos?
Jimmy [Jimmy's not too pleased with The Wonders being at the shooting of beach flick "Weekend at Party Pier"]
Hey, do we have a Top 10 record?
Jimmy Well, then, we shouldn't be here.
W Mr. White
Jimmy, you'd rather be back on that state fair tour? They're playing in North Dakota this week.
Jimmy [about Diane Dane]
She told me never trust a label. And I'm beginning to believe her.
Well, sure. I mean, come on. They put us up in a first-class hotel, all-expenses-paid, while our record climbs the charts; bunch of lyin' snakes.
Jimmy Sorry I'm buggin' you! I guess I'm alone in my principles. [leaves the room]
Oh come on. Oh, there he goes off to his room to write that hit song "Alone in my principles."
Jimmy [Jimmy's infuriated about the TV footage of their performance]
It just appeared, like magic, for the whole world to see.
I didn't say anything, I was just as surprised as you.
Jimmy "Careful, girls, he's engaged." Am I supposed to buy you some diamond ring now?
You're ruining this beautiful moment.
Jimmy Where'd you get the idea that we're engaged? We're not! Last thing I need in the world!
