6 Festivals (2022) Movie Script

Hello.
I see your shadow
On the street now
I hear you push
Through the rusty gate
Click of your heels
On the concrete
Looking for a knock
Coming way too late
It seems an age
Since I've seen you
Count down as the weeks
Trickle into days
So you come in
And put your bags down
I know there's
Something in the air
But I cannot do this
To you right now
You're over there
When I need you here
My happiness
Slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever stops sinking in
Must be when you
Pack up and go
Maxie,
couldn't you have at least
pinched a dinghy with a motor?
You did good.
If this doesn't work,
we'll have to paddle all the way
back and hitchhike.
It's going to work. Trust me.
Hear that?
Cheers, cunts.
Cunty!
Wait, that's her,
Stop that girl
Just spotted three teenagers
ditching a boat, making
their way into the campsite.
She left her lipstick
On my cheek
I turn around,
She vanished in a blink
She home to me
And I can barely sleep
I'm looking for, wait
That's her, stop that girl
Hey, there's been a robbery
She stole my heart
And then took off on me
I said, hey, there's
Been a robbery
She stole my heart,
She had enough of me
Everywhere I go,
Everywhere I go
I've just had those kids
jump the back fence
on the southern campsite.
- Two male, one female,
- Let's go, let's go.
Blue top, yellow top,
female in a red top. Copy?
Who you are
Utopia Valley.
This place is an experience
beyond the music.
It's like an adventure retreat
mixed with a music festival.
Starting in 2016, it sells over
20,000 tickets every year.
In one corner,
we have Utopia Jungle,
an epic bush doof.
Then there's U Nation
where all the main DJs play
and Neverland is the main stage,
always has the sickest variety
of music.
The line-up this year
is absolutely mental.
I'm semi-excited.
Fuckin' go, cunt!
Feels a lot like love
Loves a lot like hearts
Feels a lot like mine
Let me see you!
Better together
Keep missing you
Better together
And soon we can check
out the full Marley set.
Happy New Year, groms.
Hey, Summer.
Where is it?
I don't have it.
Come on, give it to me.
- No, I...
- Give it to me!
I didn't bring it, Kane!
I didn't bring it.
You fucking serious?
You little weak cunt!
Your brother's such a dickhead.
No, he's alright.
He's just off his face,
that's all.
I've got one more song,
but first, I've got a friend
on the rise,
jumping up for a track.
Introducing Missy Marley!
Give it up!
Call myself a beyonce
All my black magic
Up in your face
I'm not just a flower
In the bouquet
I'm not your bitch,
I'm the upgrade
My luscious curls Dewy lips
Watch 'em there,
My curvy hips
- Whoo! Yeah, Marley!
- We about to dip
Missy, Missy Marley
Turning all heads in the room
Sonic boom
- Reckon she remembers us?
- No way.
Miss Marly to you
I'm a bad ass bitch
Watch me swing my dick
Yeah, I'm so damn sick,
I'll make you sneeze
I'm a bad ass bitch,
I'm the whole package
41-inch bitch,
Get on your knees
Headache.
Get on your knees
Get on your knees
Thank you, Martia,
for getting me up!
Go, Marley!
Have a good night, y'all!
Want you to save me
Ooh
To save me
Where you goin'?
Let's go!
No way! Shame.
- Go, go!
- Maxie?
Come on!
No fucking way.
Summer Rose?
Look at you all grown up now.
- You're beautiful.
- Thanks.
I've grown up, too.
Yeah, you still don't have
any pubes though.
- Fuck off.
- Are you guys still in school?
Yeah, but Summer's
doing music as well.
Yeah, she does sick covers
of your stuff.
Should we grab drinks?
Oh. We'll grab 'em.
You guys chill here.
Drink?
Nah, I'm good, thanks.
How are we gonna get drinks?
Shut up. Let's go.
How's your mum doin'?
Same. And yours?
Same.
Hey, what happened to you?
You just kind of disappeared
all of a sudden.
I moved to my auntie's place
in Brissy.
That bad, huh?
Yeah.
So, what are you doing
after this?
Is there, like, a sick
VIP party for artists, or?
Oh, I've got a 6:00am
flight tomorrow,
so probably just go have a quiet
drink on my own at the motel.
Aren't you playing
Big Pineapple next month?
Yeah, that'll be my first
proper festival slot.
So, you guys still best friends
after all these years, huh?
Yeah.
Man, I miss home.
Anyway, let's stay in touch
on Insta, hey?
Yes.
Should we go scab some
drinks before the countdown?
- Oh, let's go!
- Fuck yeah!
Who is on for the countdown?
Peking Duk.
Seriously gonna do it?
No-one's gonna buy 'em for us.
Grow a brain, Maxie.
We're here with no wristbands
and you're going to...
Now, now, now!
Why did you have to
gee him up for it?
I didn't think
he'd actually do it.
Maxie, hurry up. Hurry up.
Oh, shit! Maxie!
Stay down! Stay down!
Summer. Your mum's
in no state to drive,
but she's given you the okay
to go home with James's parents.
So, let's call your parents.
Do you have to call them?
What do you reckon?
A call from you guys is not
really what they need right now.
Please.
Look, my mum isn't coping
so well
with this whole cancer thing
and, well, she'll have
a heart attack
if she gets a call
from the cops.
Please?
I'm sorry.
But I've still got to call
your parents.
Good evening.
It's Constable Davey.
Am I speaking with...
Your mum's got cancer?
I do.
No, you don't.
Yes, I do.
No, you don't.
Do you really?
He's just saying that
so the cops
don't call his parents.
Very clever, James.
Bit harsh, but well played.
Tell her it was just a prank
to get us off.
I wish it was a prank.
How bad is it?
Sweet.
I get the test results
back in a few weeks.
It'll be fine.
What kind of... What... Where?
Brain tumour.
Why didn't you tell us?
I was going to tell you guys
tomorrow.
I just didn't want to ruin
New Year's.
Everybody out here tonight,
grab the person next to you,
whether it's a best friend
or you just met them.
Come on. Ten, nine...
Are you going to die?
Maxie.
No. It's just a tumour.
They can cut it straight out.
Happy new year!
Dream no more
And leave it all behind
How sick was today?
- Best day ever.
- So good.
Hey, so, I've got this idea
but I need you guys to help me.
What if we make a list
of all of our favourite bands
and go to as many festivals
as possible?
There's hardly any left near us.
Travel wherever to get to them.
- But you're sick.
- I'm not dead.
Would your parents even let you?
They have to.
I'm going to be doing
stupid fucking treatment
and everyone's going to feel
sorry for me.
So, I may as well do
what I want to do.
Your mum won't know you're gone.
Your brother won't give a shit.
You can be the talent,
you can be the tour manager,
and I'll be the promoter.
And by the time
we finish school,
we can put on our own festivals.
You think I'm joking?
We know you're not.
Marley is playing
Big Pineapple next month.
That's us!
So, are you in or what?
Let's do it.
How the hell will we get
to the Sunshine Coast?
James, your mum's on her way
to pick up you and Summer.
And me?
No, we'll need to call
your parents.
Dad's in gaol. Mum's dead.
Sorry to hear that.
So, who's your legal guardian?
My brother.
Kane.
Scissors, paper, rock
Yes!
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you,
I touch myself
Oh, I don't want
Anybody else
Oh, no, oh, no, oh, no
Everything you say
Is bullshit
And everything you do
Is so sick
Bullshit
You know what,
I think we just need
a little bit of peace and quiet.
And you need to rest,
my darling.
You have a huge day coming up.
I don't need to rest, Mum.
- I'm fine.
- Okay.
And stop patting me
like I'm a cat.
Sorry.
Meow.
Thank you, Maxie.
That is not helping.
Look, look, there it is.
James used to love
going up there as a kid.
Didn't you, James?
Remember?
No way.
I feel so special.
So, who's a queen
for hooking this up?
Boys?
You are, Queen Summer.
Now, that wasn't
so hard, was it?
You go and have
a really good time.
Keep your phone on
and we'll meet about 6:00pm
for dinner, yeah?
Just touch base.
- Cool.
- And no alcohol.
I am responsible for you
while we are away.
You're responsible for them
most of the time anyway.
- Sweet.
- Let's go. Marley's waiting.
I make moves
I don't double tap
And I put in the work
And then I double back
Stacking up the cash, baby,
Need a rubber band
You need a fragile sticker
And some bubble wrap
Don't come at me
'Cause the girls stay with me
In the AK, we got girls
In Brissy
We'll go out,
And we will get shifty
Face a ten, but the mouth
Ain't pretty-like
No biggie,
We booked and we busy
No ice on my neck,
But the fit so drippy
You wanna leave with me,
Go ask the committee
And you better show me
What you working witty
Too wild, yeah,
The team too wild
Black on black,
That's that, whew chile
Too severe, yeah, the team
Too severe
And we keeping that mood
For the rest of the year
I said we keeping that mood,
Yeah, that mood
Yeah, we keeping that mood,
Yeah, that mood
I said we keeping that mood,
Yeah, that mood
And you better make room
When we step in the room
You alright?
Yeah.
I'm sweet.
Hey, thanks for getting us in.
N'aw, my pleasure.
You can thank Summer, too.
Trust me, we have.
And thanks for giving
Summer the time of day.
She really looks up to you.
She's going to hate me
for this one.
Oh, no, if you go
My life be so low
Oh, no, if you go,
My life be so low
Boy, I just want
You to know
Where you go, I follow
Right behind you
- Wow.
- What's "wow"?
You're wow. Great song.
It's good, hey?
Shit.
You guys want to go
meet the bands?
- Yes!
- Yeah!
Alright, let's go then.
- Sure they won't mind?
- Nah. They're all sweet.
- Ah, BC, my man.
- Marley!
How are you, Danny?
Hey, BC.
Hey, legend.
Maxie.
You liking the festival so far?
- Yeah. Frothin'.
- Good set.
Yeah, I bet you guys
pump heaps of chicks, hey?
Look at us. no way!
What do you mean,
you little bugger?
Dude, I am thinking
of putting on
something of my own
at the end of the year.
Oh, wow.
Something with
a few big main acts
and some local acts, you know?
Just let me know.
Yeah, man. We'll hit you up.
"Cheese" on three. Three.
Cheese!
Look after these boys, hey.
You want to come with?
Sure.
You guys want to chill?
Yeah, for sure. You serious?
What's this? Business cards.
Yeah, I know what it is.
But what's it for?
Networking, Maxie. Networking.
You're a dead-set legend.
You okay?
I'm just a little nervous.
Sit down, sis.
James's mum is pretty cool
for driving you fellas up.
Yeah, she's been very supportive
of the whole festival thing.
Wish my mum did that for me.
Same.
Do you remember that night
we came home from playing
in the park
and our mums were passed out?
And the firies kicked
the door in.
And the whole place
was up in smoke.
Wasn't that a cake in the oven?
An ice cream cake
in the fucking microwave.
Wrapped in foil!
Like, what the fuck?
How old were we?
It was my tenth birthday,
so you would have been
about five.
Fuck.
I never understood
why people have kids
if they're not going
to look after 'em, hey?
I don't think they
choose to be fuck-ups, though.
If I were a mum, I'd make sure
I was the best mum ever.
Me too. Easier said than done,
apparently.
Hey, how do you feel
about coming to a writers
workshop with me?
What's a writers' workshop?
Yours and Owls Festival
is putting on
an artist camp next month
and it's a few days
of song-writing,
recording, performing,
industry insights, you know?
Sounds awesome.
I think you'll learn a lot.
So, you keen?
- Knock, knock.
- Hey!
- Hey.
- This is my sister girl Summer
I was telling you about.
She said yes to coming
to the artist house with me.
Hey, good to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
- This is Billy, my manager.
Hey, the session tonight,
midnight till 10:00am.
We've got to get
those tracks done
and deliver them
for the label, yeah?
- Of course.
- Alright. Catch you soon.
So, you've got a manager now?
Kinda. He said he'll sign me
if something comes of it.
This is your business card?
- Yeah.
- You're promoting?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Oh, cool.
- Yeah, I just started out.
- Nice. Home printed. I like it.
Yeah, yeah.
I like it. You got to start
somewhere, man.
One, two, three. Titties!
- What's up?
- Maxie.
They're little frothers.
Maxie. G.
Look out, this guy's a promoter.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, yeah.
Take it easy.
See you, guys. Peace.
- See you, dudes.
- See ya!
What's going on?
I'm a big fan
of your music, dude.
Oh, thanks, man.
Did you track all of the drums
on the EP yourself?
Yeah, I did the drums, guitars,
vocals, synths.
Did it all in my bedroom.
That's where you made
Jeromo as well, hey?
Yeah, yeah, my drum. Yeah.
- Awesome.
- You know your stuff.
Yeah.
- It was lovely to meet you.
- Yeah, no worries.
And have the best time ever.
- Awesome. See you, dudes.
- Yeah.
- See ya!
- Laters.

Merch tent.
Sick.

Nah, I'm sweet.
I've got plenty of food.
You should have something.
Have a carrot
or something. Here.
It's probably nothing.
He said he was going to call
just to check in.
Want a bite?
I'll be back.
Want me to come?
I can go to the toilet
on my own, you know.
Make some

Pick myself up
Off the fucking floor
Yeah, this here, baby,
This here, babe, ain't love
So, take me as I am,
Watch me as I go
I've been sailing seas
While you drift afloat
And now you're standing
On a sidewalk
Calling Georgia
To come alive
But she's been dead
The whole time
And I cried
Hands up!
I am not afraid
To do this alone
I know that it scares you
But I am my own home
I am not afraid
To do this alone
I know that it scares you
But I am my own home
And I've cried
Oh

But I am my own home
And I've cried
Everything you say

Bullshit

Oi, let that fella up.
That's our mate, James.
- Hey, Jimmy. Come up, mate.
- Yeah, Jimmy!
Come up, mate.
Fuck yeah.
Hey, Jimmy.
This is Jimmy.
He's had a really fucking
rough time lately
and we saw him backstage
and we were like...
Can you play guitar?
I can play Scott Green!
Oi, buddy! Guitar!
Alright. We'll see how good
you know this fucker.
When I say sunshine,

How fucking good was Jimmy?
Six pack
What the fuck?
Oh, shit.
Sorry.
You alright?
Are you?
Fine.
Here.
It was invented
to help with seasickness,
but it also works for nausea.
My pain meds make me feel...
It helps.
You don't need it?
No. This seems to be doing
the trick.
I can't feel a thing.
Your friends are really
worried, bro.
They've been looking for you
everywhere.
They'll live.
Hey, Marley?
Do you think everyone
takes me as a joke?
You're a special kid, James.
Don't beat yourself up so bad.
You've been drinking.
You know you can't drink
on your medication.
Have you had anything to eat?
So, how long did he give me?
Let's not do this now.
Six months?
Two weeks?
- Hey, please.
- Four years?
Eight days? Five years?
I can keep going. 24 hours?
They don't know.
Settle down.
I'll get you there.
Just a couple waves.
No, Kane! Just one!
Festival three.
Yours and Owls, Wollongong, NSW.
It's music by the sea
for a celebration
of unity and freedom
and it all begins
with a road trip.
Is it about the...
Is it about the destination
or is it the journey?
We'll soon find out
if we ever fucking get there.
One thing's for sure,
the music will always...
Shut up, James.
Who fucking cares?
- Hey.
- Hey.
How far off are you guys?
Kane keeps stalling us.
Now, he's surfing.
Maxie's out there
trying to hurry him up.
Should be there in two hours.
Okay, make sure you're not late.
I can't do it without you guys.
Welcome to the
Yours and Owls artist house.
As an extension
of Yours and Owls,
we've curated
some incredible artists,
not just to perform
on the stage,
but also to take part
in our artists' mentor camp.
I know you guys have selected
your Unearth artist to mentor.
Today is all about you lot.
We've got some writing sessions,
we've got a showcase
where you'll get to perform
a song each,
then the bus will take you
guys out to the festival site
to catch some of the last
few acts.
Let's get into it.
Whoo-hoo!
Welcome
To black boy boulevard
It's far from amazin
Where there chalk-sketched
Silhouettes
Of brothers on pavement
Where their white boy raised
And the black boy erased
This guy's in shackles,
We cuffs
It's that
Modern day slavery
Where my nose is wide
And my lips is swollen
And so this whip I'm drivin,
That must be stolen
I mean, what's he hidin,
What's he holdin
If that be the knife,
Then, duh
I can't breathe,
I can't breathe
With your knee in my neck
I'm just needin' a breath
Oh, I can't breathe,
I can't breathe, no, yeah
I'll just pretend
That we can't see an end
First verse is solid.
Love that last line.
How's he doing?
Still doing treatment.
Well, no point stressing
over things you can't control.
But this shit, you can control.
Let's finish that chorus.
Hold on a sec.
I'm just going to check
the notes on the guitar.
We had an all-nighter
in the studio.
I know you're going through
a lot right now.
I mean, seriously,
all that shit you've done.
Hanging with him,
hospital visits,
just watching him waste away.
I couldn't, hey.
I guess you weren't around
when mum got sick.
- He's not wasting away.
- Just trying to give you props
for being a decent friend,
you little shit.
Yeah, well, you told his
parents you'd be responsible.
Yeah, for getting youse
to the festival.
Yeah, the one we should
have been at hours ago.
And you also said you'd buy us
tickets to CityFest.
How do you know I didn't?
Bought 'em last week.
Thank you, Kane.
Thanks, Kane.
I'm going to need your help
with something there.
What?
No way.
Look, if I get caught,
I'll go back inside.
You get caught, you'll be sweet.
You're underage
with a clean record.
I'm not smuggling your stash in.
Don't you want to do
more festivals
with your dying buddy?
He's not dying!
Come on, Maxie.
Don't let James down, hey?
Come on, I'll cut you in.
Can't you just do
something for me
without wanting something
in return for once?
You've had your surf.
Now, let's go!
I promised Summer.
Good luck getting to Wollongong.
Oh, don't go it, you idiot.
You'll get hammered!
Maxie!
Fuck!
Little fucker almost drowned
trying to be a madman.
You right, Maxie?
Fuck! That board cost me
over a grand.
You fucking owe me.
I told you not to go that wave.
Now, look. My favourite board
is gone. You little shit.
You're going to owe me, Maxie.
Where did Kane go?
Pub.
Hope he gets hit by a fucking
car on the way back.
Ruthless.
Let it go, man.
I'm so sick of him
controlling my life.
Always making me do shit
I don't want to fucking do.
Like what?
Maxie, you don't have
to put up with his bullshit.
Easy for you to say.
You don't live with him.
I have to cop his shit every
day of my fucking life.
Sometimes I wish I could
just disappear.
Why don't you come live with me?
I'm serious, man.
My parents love you.
I'm sure they'll be sweet.
But what happens if...
You know...
I die?
Sorry. I shouldn't have said it.
It's all good.
If I die, you're fucked.
Cheers, cunt.
Cunty.
Are you scared?
I'm not scared.
I'm just confused.
Some days, I'm so psyched
I'm going to all these festivals
and planning my own events
and other days...
I think what's the point?
And just don't leave my room.
Today's going to be sick.
We'll go watch
Summer's showcasing
and then we'll see Dope Lemon
smash it.
I'm over it.
Over what?
All this festival shit.
Why?
I'm just tired.
I'm tired all the fucking time.
We need to see
this through, man.
We need to be there
for Summer, too.
What?
Did you just kiss my shoulder?
What's wrong with that?
What?
You're alright, Maxie.
- Hey, Mum.
- Hey, Sweetie.
Just checking you're
taking your medication.
Yeah. Any other troubles?
No. Kane's looking after us.
Oh, well, that's good.
You just call me though
if you're feeling any other...
Yeah, sorry, Maxie needs help
with something.
I've got to go.
Your parents are so cool
for letting you do this.
I wish I had parents like yours.
I wish I had parents.
That's fucked up.
Doesn't matter
how many wins you get,
how many losses we take,
we can't stop, we won't stop,
we keep going.
Gang, gang
Young boy, I came up,
Never gon' drop
From never bein' wanted
To the cream of the crop
Started at the bottom,
I done took it to the top
Yeah, it's a long Summer
'Cause you know we been hot
Even if they talk greasy,
No, we won't stop
Yeah, you don't believe it,
But we won't stop
We up on wins
And we won't stop
Never gon' freeze,
Won't stop
Yours and Owls,
have a great day!
Again.
But then you
Call me a friend
But we're so much closer
If anyone asks,
I'll say that you're all good
I'll just pretend
That we can't see an end
I don't believe you.
What do you mean?
This song is about
your dying best friend, right?
Yeah.
Then sing it like you mean it.
I wanna feel your pain.
From the top.
Let me feel it this time.
You call me your friend
But we're so much closer
If anyone
What did I do wrong?
You're holding back.
What are you afraid of?
- I'm not.
- You are.
Imagine you're at James's
funeral.
No, seriously.
James, your best friend,
has just passed away
and he left you this note.
He wants you to sing this song
at his funeral
as a beautiful send-off.
You're standing up the front
and how are you going
- to sing it?
- Marley, it's just a song.
Just a song?
This is an opportunity
to tell your story.
Everyone likes the idea
of becoming an artist
but only a few actually
make it about the music.
They're the ones that connect.
They're the ones that make
a career out of it
because it's coming
from an honest place.
- Hey, Blessed?
- Yeah, it's facts.
It's not like I'm lying.
But you're not being
completely honest either.
Summer, I'm trying to help you.
It's in there somewhere.
We just need to get it out.
Goin' back to this chick's
hotel room
- with some old mates of mine.
- Why?
Had too many beers to drive now.
I'm just going to crash there.
- Are you kidding?
- Don't worry.
There's a few young chicks
there too.
Youse wanna come
get your end wet, eh?
- Yeah.
- No.
No.
Right. Well, you go and sleep
in the van then.
It's going nowhere.
You said you wouldn't
let me down.
Relax, man-child.
We'll leave first thing.
- Take us now!
- Oh, yeah?
You gonna return the favour
at City Fest then, hey? Huh?
Kane!
What the fuck
are you thinking, Maxie?
What the fuck are you thinking?
Oh, here we go! Go on.
Let's go.
Maxie, don't.
Come on. Free shot. Come on!
You'd better fucking knock me
out or I'm gonna kill ya!
Come on, let's go.
Let's go, come on!
Come on! Right here!
Let's go!
You're a fucking weak cunt,
Maxie.
Even James would cave you in
and he can barely stand up.
Oh, did I upset you, princess?
You've reached JE Entertainment.
Leave a message.
Where are you guys?
Hurry up.
I'm on in about an hour.
Priests and the, the judges
Rabbis pay very well
We aren't really here
Said he didn't want it going
anywhere.
Let's go, let's go.
A way to die
Talking emptiness
Send to the edge
Bump shots and religion
The saloon is my refuge
Uptown folks pay very well,
Indeed
Thank you.
We've got a very special guest
here for you tonight
who really needs
no introductions.
Let's put our hands together
for Grinspoon's front man,
Phil Jamieson.
Thank you.
Thanks for having me at this
amazing artist guesthouse
at Yours and Owls Festival.
My first festival was
a Big Day Out many moons ago.
I was the first in the gate
and I was so excited, obviously.
It's indelibly burned
into my memory.
Hearing songs for the first time
live by bands
I'd never heard before
and I was overcome
by what festivals mean to me
and what they can create
for people.
And so that's where the magic
is, I think, in some ways.
For us, what we can create,
how we can communicate
to people.
My advice is
to the great artists
who are about to perform
right now,
is to, you know, trust
your gut, get weird,
get weirder, and make it happen.
Untouched by what
Potential be there
I guess I don't mind
Now I'm standing
With the turtles
Looking like an asshole
Like, what you want
From me, bro
I was just trying
To get some coin
Uh, it's a game over for me
I know that we was always
In since she heard my CD
Like
We were both
To what we thought
Nothing's lost,
This is how we trust
Let's go
Fair skin, long hair,
Blue eyes
Please tell me
Who's this guy
Caucasian
Jesus can't believe
You tried to make him white
Brown skin, curled hair,
Big nose
Yeah, that's probably
how it goes
So who's this guy I see
'Cause I know Jesus
Looks like me, let's go
Look like me
What's he look like
I think he looks like me
Hey, everyone.
I recently reconnected
with this young girl
after years of losing contact
and now,
she's my little sis again.
She's proven to be
a driven young artist,
so please give it up
for my girl, Summer.
Hi, everyone.
This is a song about
one of my best friends.
You know that I'm afraid
But you're Not even phased
You
So sorry.
I'm so sorry I wasted
your time, Marley.
The boys said they'd be here
and then they fucked me up.
Hey, hey, come here.
I just wanted him to hear it.
And he will.
Will he ever, though?
It's okay.
I'm here with you, okay?
I can't go back out there!
You can go back out there.
They're not here, Marley.
Summer, don't forget,
this is my reputation
on the line, too, you know?
And yours.
Stop blaming other people
and just get back out there.
Baby, it's a new day
Driving on the through-way
All I see
Is bright green lights
Come on!
Forget what you were coming
No, that shit ain't for me,
I'ma just live my life
My life
Come on!
It's my life
Come on!
It's my life
What do we do, yo
I do what I want,
I do what I want to do
My life, my life,
My life, my life
I do what I want,
I do what I want to do
Baby, it's a new day
Driving on the through-way
All I see
Is bright green lights
Forget what you were coming
No, that shit ain't for me
Summer!
Where are you going?
You said you'd be there for me!
CityFest, we love you.
Fuck, that was a close one.
Hey, cunt?
Fucking soldier.
We're even for my board now.
You still owe me
for my tyres but.
No, dog.
Here, smash it.
No. Come on, big boy. Here.
No, I'm all good. I'm all good.
More for me then, hey?
Let's fucking go, hey?
Here.
No, you're holding for me.
- You said.
- Yeah, I changed my mind.
Let's go.
- Shit.
- What?
Cops are out there. Fuck!
What are we gonna do?
No, listen.
You stay here and don't let
anyone in till I come back.
You got it?
You fucking got it?
Alright!
Lock the door.
Sickness with the flow and
I been down from the get-go
Stars I create
Originated in lake salt
Perfecto,
Short cunts like electro
Bout to get these one-on
What the fuck you expect,
Though?
Koori for the city
But the homeland be
More it matters,
We the matters
Bunch as far as you see
Good boy, new relation,
That's the family tree
To all the hoodlums
And accomplices
You can find me
In the South-East
Chilling every day,
My bread
Young rappers caught me
Reminiscing bout
This life I led
We're a long way from
Poppin' pharmaceutical meds
And if we aren't
We're gonna end up dead
Brothers out there selling
Coke at the crack-spot
Lose it in a match-box
Runnin' from the guns you
Shootin' wherever that's from
Try to show it better
But I fade into the backdrop
Now the only communication
Is through a laptop
Hey
So take the stays I bring
Kickin knowledge for my
Queens And young black kings
But I hustle so my daughters
Get the finest of things
We makin' deals
When we sell fine rings
But it's easy livin' large
Gotta make it
Out the struggle
Thankful for my daughter
'Cause she
Keep me outta trouble
Money comin' in but
I intend to make it double
Don't sit here
Keepin' it humble
We focussed on makin'
Bundles, unh
And everything ok
Mama proud 'cause she know
We make it out one day
She just happy that
I didn't go the funeral ways
We on our own,
Fuck minimum wage
So go and check the socials
Follow on this journey
If you like-a my sound
I've gone around town
As I pound for pound
And that ain't
Never gonna stop
Till they put me
In the ground, for real
Yo. I'm up here.
Thank you, Cityfest.
Until next time. See ya.
Yeah, ugh,
Ridin' through the fire
Hundred miles,
Ain't no slowing now
Keep it, keep it goin' now
Devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Pray to God that
I'ma get out this alive
Sold my smoke, asthmatics
Scratchin' the rim of my car
See, I just went
over the limit
Turn at the boulevard,
speed like a busy
Yuh, got ballistic lyrics,
Got cold blood like a lizzie
Yuh, whoa, whoa
Got my window tinted
Can't see me when
I'm pullin' up in it
In it, and I'm sick when
I spit it, runnin' this shit
'Cause the shoe
just fitted, fitted
Oh, yeah, we kill it
Cops in the house
Wanna stop this feelin', oh
And you know how we live it
Yeah we know
Because the hole keep ringin'
Eyes on the horizon
And my mollies keep arising
Ride until I reach the line,
Then I'll be back reclinin
Gravity define us,
So I only keep arisin'
Urge anyone who try it, oh
Yeah, unh,
Ridin' through the fire
Hundred miles,
Ain't no slowin' now
Keep it, keep it goin' now
Let's go, devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Yeah, ugh,
Ridin' through the fire
Hundred miles,
Ain't no slowin' now
Keep it, Keep it goin' now
Devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Pray to God that
I'ma get out this alive
Maxie!
Where are you?
Maxie, where are you?
- Fuck.
- Where are you?
- I'm in the toilet.
- Which one?
Toilet, the big one.
Stay there, don't move.
CityFest! Make some noise...

Maxie! You in there?
- Open the door!
You okay?
Dude? Tell me what you've taken.
Tell me what you've taken.
Maxie! Oi!
- Just one.
- One what?
Shit. Maxie, one what?
Bum-bag.
That's my chemo bag, dickhead.
What about your shit man-bag?
Are you in Adelaide now?
Mad bum-bag, brother!
Oh, fuck.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Tell me you didn't take
this shit.
What is it?
- It's G.
- What's G?
- GHB.
- What the fuck is GHB?
Liquid ecstasy.
Maxie.
Did you take anything else?
Maxie, is this Kane's shit?
Did he make you take it?
- Maxie.
- Bum-bag.
Maxie, I need you to listen.
Shut the fuck up.
You sound like my fucking mum
when she's all fucked up.
Why would he take that shit?
Maybe he's having a hard time
dealing with his best mate
being sick.
Drink.
Hey, hey, drink.
Trust me, it's going to help.
That's it, that's it.
- No, Maxie.
- My mind!
Hey, you're just off your head.
You just need to throw up.
Hey, look, stop.
I fuckin' ruined it.
I'm sorry. I promise, I'm...
It'll be fine.
Shit.
He's geeing out.
What do we do?
Should we call the ambos?
Fuck no!
Are you kidding me? Call Kane.
What's Kane going to do?
He's a fucking idiot.
Who else are we supposed
to call?
Oh, fuck.
Shit, shit, shit.
Kane! Kane!
Look, Maxie's off his head.
I don't know, fuck!
I used to love dinosaurs
When I was a kid
I wasn't afraid
I was brave and courageous
With everything I did
Come on, Kane.
Come on, Kane. Pick up. Pick up.
I'm scared of the fact
I've been to More funerals
Kane! Kane!
Oh, fuck!
Yeah, I've lost
Some close mates of mine
And I'm scared of surfing
Held underwater choking
And I'm trying
To impress you
Is it working acting blokey
And I
I used to love dinosaurs
When I was a kid
I wasn't afraid
I was brave and courageous
With everything I did...
Please don't die.
Please don't die.
Maxie.
Hey, hey.
That's it, that's it,
that's it, that's it.
Oh, my God.
And I feel like a loser
I've forgotten how to imagine
and pretend...
Fucking hell.
So I'll just watch Jurassic
Park for the 50th time
Avoiding plans I've made
With my own friends
I'm so sorry.
It's okay, mate.
You okay?
Yeah.
I've got to get some air.
Come on, Maxie.
Let's get out of here, okay?
No, I can't.
We just missed Ruby Fields.
And we're going to miss
Marley's set. Come on.
Come on, dude. Let's go.
You guys go.
I'm staying here.
We're all leaving right now.
Look, I'll go first
so it's not suss, okay?
- Fuck.
- What?
Sniffer dogs.
Alright, problem solved.
You've got to be kidding me.
That's why Kane
bought us the tickets.
He'd go back to gaol
if he got caught.
And you'll go to gaol
if you get caught.
He said I'd be sweet.
Dude, you can't keep
living like this.
He's my brother!
Yeah, and he should be
taking care of you.
Police, open up.
Fuck. I'll take the hit.
Fuck that.
You're not taking a hit
for Kane.
- What are you doing?
- Open up.
No, don't flush it.
- He'll fucking kill me.
- Give it, Maxie.
- James, don't do it.
- Fuck Kane.
Open the door now.
Just a second!
Open up.
Youse fucking shit yourselves,
hey?
It's not funny, Kane.
Oh, I'm Cunt-stable Peppa.
You got any illegal substances
on you, young man? Hey, hey?
I'm just geeing you up, bruh.
Cops are all gone.
It's all good.
Now, come on. Give it to me.
Come on, give it to me.
Where is it, Maxie? Hey?
Where is it?
I flushed it.
You fucking cunt, hey?
What the fuck do you think
you're doing?
Get the fuck off him.
You just flushed
a couple of grand.
- Get the fuck of him!
- Fuck off, Max!
- Maxie!
- I fucking hate you!
- I fucking hate you!
- Maxie!
Maxie!
Okay, he's had enough!
Bro, you knocked Kane out cold.
I don't want to be like them.
You're nothing like them.
Oh ay oh, dance with me
Hey, James,
check this chick out.
Pretty sure he doesn't wanna see
absolutely everything.
I mean, if you do, that's sweet.
We can totally show it
all to you.
Only what's on my list.
But that chick is a lord.
Hi, guys.
- Hey, Sue!
- Hey, Sue!
Hey, don't forget
I've booked the taxi
to pick you up
at the main gate at 8:30.
Don't you miss that flight.
That's too early.
We'll miss all the main acts.
No worries, Sue! Thanks heaps!
Oh, James, I forgot to ask.
How did you hook the passes up?
Bliss N Eso. Been in touch
with them since Big Pineapple.
- Legend.
- I wish you were here with us.
I am.
How's it all going?
Great.
Should be back home next week.
Just in time for Splendour.
Yeah. That's the plan.
Check this shit out.
One, two, three, go!
They seem like
they're having fun, mate.
Um...
Yeah.
Hey, we can record
this thing outside
whenever you're feeling
up to it, okay?
Okay.
My name's Space Cadet,
and I'm fuckin' done, son!
When we walkin'
Through your hood
We look like kings
I can change your life
With just one ring
'Cause I'm as crazy
With the whole 'ching-ching
If we talkin' "sh",
People talkin' on the phone
Tough with your clique
Till I see you on your own
Nike with the tick 'cause
I'm certi and I'm known
Where the Freakz at
We got that bass dropping,
People jumping
All over the world
Got them speakers pumpin
No.
Yes.
I haven't spoken to her
for weeks.
If she sees me,
it will be awkward.
Well, then maybe you need
to go say hi
before she goes on
so it's not awkward.
No, I'm just going to watch
from the crowd.
Maxie can FaceTime you
from side stage.
It's the biggest
performance of her career.
I have to see her perform
before she...
Shit.
Alright.
Whoo
Go.
She's not here. She's probably...
Hey.
- Where's the boys at?
- Maxie's here.
James couldn't make it
but he's on the mend.
Good to hear.
Hey, I'm really sorry
about everything.
What was that?
I said I'm really sorry
about everything.
Can you guys please
just fuck it off?
Thank you!
Fuck.
It's fine by me.
It's yourself
you should apologise to.
Hey, Marley.
They're definitely here,
and they're keen to sit down
after the show, alright?
I'll see you up there.
- Label?
- Yep.
That's awesome.
- Marley, you're on in ten.
- Okay.
Fuck.
Hey, it's okay.
You're going to kill it.
Fuck, fuck!
Marley, you're bleeding.
Close the tent!
Fuck. It should have stopped
hours ago.
Marley, do you need me to go
get you pads?
- I can probably find some.
- No.
Marley, do you need to go...
Fuck!
I'm eight weeks.
Was.
Marley, we're going
to the hosp...
We're going
to the hospital, right?
Yep.
Five minutes, Marley!
After the show.
No, Marley. Go now.
Summer! I don't need you!
I've done this show on my own
long enough!
Yeah.
Ain't no-one like she!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Congratulations.
We made it.
Welcome to the new era.
It's been a long time
coming, y'all.
But we're here now.
Fuck you gon' do?
How many queens you really know
can flow... like this,
like this, like this?
Let's get it, girls
How many queens
You know roll like this
How many queens
You know flow like this
Not many, if any
How many queens
You know got the skills
To go and rock
A show like this
Uh-uh, uh-uh
I don't know anybody
Check, check,
Last time I checked
One, two, very few
Coming through with the raps
That bitch in a bar
Comin' through with the bars
Dude had his time,
Now it's my au revoir
Callin' shots,
Flippin' scripts
Killin' off misogynists
So cut that bullshit
Before I rock your face
With a toy dick, aye
Bow down, bitch,
Get on your knees
Have you ever seen
Some things like these
Skin so tough all melanin,
Just all bust, no silicone
Got to get these wins
By any means necessary
Fuck rules, street tactics
Won't stop
Till my status legendary
Greatness, fantastic
Scroll down all the way
Do it right, go to town
Slow till it low
Never know when
The cash flow gon' stop
So we go gung-ho
Till we drop drop
Check it out
Let's go
How many queens
You know roll like this
How many queens
You know f low like this
Not many, if any
How many queens
You know got the skills
To go and rock
A show like this
Uh-uh, uh-uh
I don't know anybody
Peace!
Rise and shine.
What a massive day
we have coming up.
This has got to be
the biggest event
on the Australian music calendar
and what a line-up we have.
Whoo!
How good's this?
Festival six.
I bet you guys never thought
I'd make it.
Okay, shit joke.
Sorry.
But who's going to stop me now?
If you're watching this,
well, it means I'm long gone.
Which means you probably need
a pick-me-up,
so Maxie's going to hate
hearing this first one
but I love you guys so much.
Sorry if that makes
you awkward, Maxie.
Get over it.
Secondly, even though I didn't
make it to festival six,
but died trying,
I had the best time
giving it a good crack
with the two best friends
anyone could ask for.
And if Mum followed through
with this one,
well, then she's an absolute
champion.
May your lives remain
a music-playing,
festival-slaying,
dream-chasing adventure.
Cheers, cunts.
- Cunty.
- Cunty.
Man, I'm going to miss
this shit.
I've got something
to show you guys.
Enjoy.
Oi, dickheads!
Utopia Valley.
This place is an experience
beyond the music.
The line-up this year
is absolutely mental,
headlined by Peking Duk,
bringing in the new year.
Three, two, one.
Happy New Year!
Not.
Maxie.
FTP.
Big Pineapple, the best
and worst day of my life.
We met the sickest artists
and I became the fourth member
of my favourite band,
Dune Rats.
The referee
has stopped this bout
at a time of 1 minute,
28 seconds
in the first round,
declaring the winner by TKO,
a new heavyweight champion
of the world,
The Loose Cannon, Bong Rat,
Maximus!
What are you making, Maxie?
Tattoo gun, man.
Our own little tour
lives on forever.
So, promise me one thing.
Don't stop the tally
till your arm is a sleeve
and I'll keep dancing up here
in VIP.
Sue to Maxie.
Go ahead, Sue.
Ten minute warning.
I repeat, ten minutes
till doors.
Copy.
Oh, and I've ironed
your shirt for you.
- It's up in your room.
You're such a legend, Sue.
Uh-oh
Didn't you know
My skin was sore
Didn't you know
I felt no more
Ruby Fields needs to be
on a flight by 9pm,
so she needs to leave by
7:00 pm at the latest.
Make sure there's cold tinnies
for the Dune Rats.
They hate warm beer.
So stoked you guys
made it out here.
We wouldn't miss it.
Make sure the music
is over by 10:00pm
so the neighbours
don't call the cops.
This is our first festival, so
we don't want any heat on us.
No way! Marley's here.
What?
Hey, Marley.
- Hey.
- Hey.
So sorry about James.
No, he would have been
stoked you came.
Wouldn't miss it
for the world, bruz.
Thanks for coming, Marley.
Alright, I'll be back in a sec.
Aren't you supposed to be
on that US tour?
Pulled out of the tour.
So sorry.
Maybe I wasn't ready
to be a mum yet.
Hey, you will one day.
You'll be an amazing mum.
Well, I definitely won't heat
up an ice cream cake
wrapped in foil
in the microwave.
Hey, look, I'm sorry
if I carried on a little bit.
I just wanted you to know
that I believe in you.
Thanks for everything, Marley.
Look at you with your own
dressing room now.
Not exactly my own.
Sorry to interrupt.
Summer, you're on now.
- And a tour manager?
- That's right.
Go kill 'em, sis.
You know that I'm afraid
And you're not even phased
You've come
To terms with fate
I wasn't brought up
That way
I'm sure that the music
Will drown out my thoughts
A bottle would drown
Them out more
You'll leave me another day
Don't cut me loose
Before you go away
But then you call me
A friend, boy
You're so much closer
If anyone asks,
I'll say that we're all good
I'll just pretend
That we can't see the end
Can't let myself let go
So let me hold you close
And I'll act like
I don't know
That we don't
Have long to go
But then you call me
A friend
But we're so much closer
If anyone asks,
I'll say that we're all good
I'll just pretend
That there isn't an end
Yeah, Summer. That was sick.
Alright, coming up next,
we've got Ruby Fields
and Dune Rats!
I see your shadow
On the street now
I hear you push through
The rusty gate
Click of your heels
On the concrete
Waiting for a knock
Coming way too late
It seems like an age
Since I've seen you
Countdown as the weeks
Trickle into days
So you come in
And put your bags down
I know there's something
In the air
How can I do this to you
Right now?
If you're over there
When I need you here
My happiness
Is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts
Sinking in
It must be when you
Pack up and go
Let's sing it for James!
It seems like an age
Since I've seen you
Countdown as the weeks
Trickle into days
I hope that time
Hasn't changed you
All I really want
Is for you to stay
So you come in
And put your bags down
I know there's something
In the air
How can I do this
To you right now?
You're over there
When I need you here
My happiness
Is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts
Sinking in
It must be when you
Pack up and go
Whoo! Yeah!
We are the greatest band
in the world! Ha!
Never thought
There'd be a time
Everything would be okay
But you came in
The nick of time
In the nick of time
To save the day
Everything that you define
Is basically what I need
It started on the inside
And now it's taken over me
One time, one time
Was incomplete
And badly in need of you
One time, one time
Was incomplete
Never thought
You would come
In the form that you'd come
With your sunlight
When darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me,
Darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me
I don't want to
Live a lie no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
I don't want to
Dim my light no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
No
I ain't coming down, no
No no, no no, no no,
I ain't coming down
You're practically
The reason
I've become a new me
Was headed down
That dark road
And you create
A perfect parody
But I'm far from perfect
Still get nervous,
A work in progress
Knowing I'm a better man
'Cause I'm not where
I used to be
One time, one time
Was incomplete
And badly in need of you
One time, one time
Was incomplete
Never thought
You would come
In the form that you'd come
With your sunlight
When darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me,
Darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me
I don't wanna
Live a lie no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
I don't wanna
Dim my light no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
No
I ain't coming down, no
No no, no no, no no,
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down
Down Down down down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down
I ain't coming down now
No way, ain't coming down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down
I ain't coming down now
No way, coming down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down
I ain't coming down now
No way, coming down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down down
I ain't coming down now
I ain't coming down
Hello.
I see your shadow
On the street now
I hear you push
Through the rusty gate
Click of your heels
On the concrete
Looking for a knock
Coming way too late
It seems an age
Since I've seen you
Count down as the weeks
Trickle into days
So you come in
And put your bags down
I know there's
Something in the air
But I cannot do this
To you right now
You're over there
When I need you here
My happiness
Slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever stops sinking in
Must be when you
Pack up and go
Maxie,
couldn't you have at least
pinched a dinghy with a motor?
You did good.
If this doesn't work,
we'll have to paddle all the way
back and hitchhike.
It's going to work. Trust me.
Hear that?
Cheers, cunts.
Cunty!
Wait, that's her,
Stop that girl
Just spotted three teenagers
ditching a boat, making
their way into the campsite.
She left her lipstick
On my cheek
I turn around,
She vanished in a blink
She home to me
And I can barely sleep
I'm looking for, wait
That's her, stop that girl
Hey, there's been a robbery
She stole my heart
And then took off on me
I said, hey, there's
Been a robbery
She stole my heart,
She had enough of me
Everywhere I go,
Everywhere I go
I've just had those kids
jump the back fence
on the southern campsite.
- Two male, one female,
- Let's go, let's go.
Blue top, yellow top,
female in a red top. Copy?
Who you are
Utopia Valley.
This place is an experience
beyond the music.
It's like an adventure retreat
mixed with a music festival.
Starting in 2016, it sells over
20,000 tickets every year.
In one corner,
we have Utopia Jungle,
an epic bush doof.
Then there's U Nation
where all the main DJs play
and Neverland is the main stage,
always has the sickest variety
of music.
The line-up this year
is absolutely mental.
I'm semi-excited.
Fuckin' go, cunt!
Feels a lot like love
Loves a lot like hearts
Feels a lot like mine
Let me see you!
Better together
Keep missing you
Better together
And soon we can check
out the full Marley set.
Happy New Year, groms.
Hey, Summer.
Where is it?
I don't have it.
Come on, give it to me.
- No, I...
- Give it to me!
I didn't bring it, Kane!
I didn't bring it.
You fucking serious?
You little weak cunt!
Your brother's such a dickhead.
No, he's alright.
He's just off his face,
that's all.
I've got one more song,
but first, I've got a friend
on the rise,
jumping up for a track.
Introducing Missy Marley!
Give it up!
Call myself a beyonce
All my black magic
Up in your face
I'm not just a flower
In the bouquet
I'm not your bitch,
I'm the upgrade
My luscious curls Dewy lips
Watch 'em there,
My curvy hips
- Whoo! Yeah, Marley!
- We about to dip
Missy, Missy Marley
Turning all heads in the room
Sonic boom
- Reckon she remembers us?
- No way.
Miss Marly to you
I'm a bad ass bitch
Watch me swing my dick
Yeah, I'm so damn sick,
I'll make you sneeze
I'm a bad ass bitch,
I'm the whole package
41-inch bitch,
Get on your knees
Headache.
Get on your knees
Get on your knees
Thank you, Martia,
for getting me up!
Go, Marley!
Have a good night, y'all!
Want you to save me
Ooh
To save me
Where you goin'?
Let's go!
No way! Shame.
- Go, go!
- Maxie?
Come on!
No fucking way.
Summer Rose?
Look at you all grown up now.
- You're beautiful.
- Thanks.
I've grown up, too.
Yeah, you still don't have
any pubes though.
- Fuck off.
- Are you guys still in school?
Yeah, but Summer's
doing music as well.
Yeah, she does sick covers
of your stuff.
Should we grab drinks?
Oh. We'll grab 'em.
You guys chill here.
Drink?
Nah, I'm good, thanks.
How are we gonna get drinks?
Shut up. Let's go.
How's your mum doin'?
Same. And yours?
Same.
Hey, what happened to you?
You just kind of disappeared
all of a sudden.
I moved to my auntie's place
in Brissy.
That bad, huh?
Yeah.
So, what are you doing
after this?
Is there, like, a sick
VIP party for artists, or?
Oh, I've got a 6:00am
flight tomorrow,
so probably just go have a quiet
drink on my own at the motel.
Aren't you playing
Big Pineapple next month?
Yeah, that'll be my first
proper festival slot.
So, you guys still best friends
after all these years, huh?
Yeah.
Man, I miss home.
Anyway, let's stay in touch
on Insta, hey?
Yes.
Should we go scab some
drinks before the countdown?
- Oh, let's go!
- Fuck yeah!
Who is on for the countdown?
Peking Duk.
Seriously gonna do it?
No-one's gonna buy 'em for us.
Grow a brain, Maxie.
We're here with no wristbands
and you're going to...
Now, now, now!
Why did you have to
gee him up for it?
I didn't think
he'd actually do it.
Maxie, hurry up. Hurry up.
Oh, shit! Maxie!
Stay down! Stay down!
Summer. Your mum's
in no state to drive,
but she's given you the okay
to go home with James's parents.
So, let's call your parents.
Do you have to call them?
What do you reckon?
A call from you guys is not
really what they need right now.
Please.
Look, my mum isn't coping
so well
with this whole cancer thing
and, well, she'll have
a heart attack
if she gets a call
from the cops.
Please?
I'm sorry.
But I've still got to call
your parents.
Good evening.
It's Constable Davey.
Am I speaking with...
Your mum's got cancer?
I do.
No, you don't.
Yes, I do.
No, you don't.
Do you really?
He's just saying that
so the cops
don't call his parents.
Very clever, James.
Bit harsh, but well played.
Tell her it was just a prank
to get us off.
I wish it was a prank.
How bad is it?
Sweet.
I get the test results
back in a few weeks.
It'll be fine.
What kind of... What... Where?
Brain tumour.
Why didn't you tell us?
I was going to tell you guys
tomorrow.
I just didn't want to ruin
New Year's.
Everybody out here tonight,
grab the person next to you,
whether it's a best friend
or you just met them.
Come on. Ten, nine...
Are you going to die?
Maxie.
No. It's just a tumour.
They can cut it straight out.
Happy new year!
Dream no more
And leave it all behind
How sick was today?
- Best day ever.
- So good.
Hey, so, I've got this idea
but I need you guys to help me.
What if we make a list
of all of our favourite bands
and go to as many festivals
as possible?
There's hardly any left near us.
Travel wherever to get to them.
- But you're sick.
- I'm not dead.
Would your parents even let you?
They have to.
I'm going to be doing
stupid fucking treatment
and everyone's going to feel
sorry for me.
So, I may as well do
what I want to do.
Your mum won't know you're gone.
Your brother won't give a shit.
You can be the talent,
you can be the tour manager,
and I'll be the promoter.
And by the time
we finish school,
we can put on our own festivals.
You think I'm joking?
We know you're not.
Marley is playing
Big Pineapple next month.
That's us!
So, are you in or what?
Let's do it.
How the hell will we get
to the Sunshine Coast?
James, your mum's on her way
to pick up you and Summer.
And me?
No, we'll need to call
your parents.
Dad's in gaol. Mum's dead.
Sorry to hear that.
So, who's your legal guardian?
My brother.
Kane.
Scissors, paper, rock
Yes!
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you,
I touch myself
Oh, I don't want
Anybody else
Oh, no, oh, no, oh, no
Everything you say
Is bullshit
And everything you do
Is so sick
Bullshit
You know what,
I think we just need
a little bit of peace and quiet.
And you need to rest,
my darling.
You have a huge day coming up.
I don't need to rest, Mum.
- I'm fine.
- Okay.
And stop patting me
like I'm a cat.
Sorry.
Meow.
Thank you, Maxie.
That is not helping.
Look, look, there it is.
James used to love
going up there as a kid.
Didn't you, James?
Remember?
No way.
I feel so special.
So, who's a queen
for hooking this up?
Boys?
You are, Queen Summer.
Now, that wasn't
so hard, was it?
You go and have
a really good time.
Keep your phone on
and we'll meet about 6:00pm
for dinner, yeah?
Just touch base.
- Cool.
- And no alcohol.
I am responsible for you
while we are away.
You're responsible for them
most of the time anyway.
- Sweet.
- Let's go. Marley's waiting.
I make moves
I don't double tap
And I put in the work
And then I double back
Stacking up the cash, baby,
Need a rubber band
You need a fragile sticker
And some bubble wrap
Don't come at me
'Cause the girls stay with me
In the AK, we got girls
In Brissy
We'll go out,
And we will get shifty
Face a ten, but the mouth
Ain't pretty-like
No biggie,
We booked and we busy
No ice on my neck,
But the fit so drippy
You wanna leave with me,
Go ask the committee
And you better show me
What you working witty
Too wild, yeah,
The team too wild
Black on black,
That's that, whew chile
Too severe, yeah, the team
Too severe
And we keeping that mood
For the rest of the year
I said we keeping that mood,
Yeah, that mood
Yeah, we keeping that mood,
Yeah, that mood
I said we keeping that mood,
Yeah, that mood
And you better make room
When we step in the room
You alright?
Yeah.
I'm sweet.
Hey, thanks for getting us in.
N'aw, my pleasure.
You can thank Summer, too.
Trust me, we have.
And thanks for giving
Summer the time of day.
She really looks up to you.
She's going to hate me
for this one.
Oh, no, if you go
My life be so low
Oh, no, if you go,
My life be so low
Boy, I just want
You to know
Where you go, I follow
Right behind you
- Wow.
- What's "wow"?
You're wow. Great song.
It's good, hey?
Shit.
You guys want to go
meet the bands?
- Yes!
- Yeah!
Alright, let's go then.
- Sure they won't mind?
- Nah. They're all sweet.
- Ah, BC, my man.
- Marley!
How are you, Danny?
Hey, BC.
Hey, legend.
Maxie.
You liking the festival so far?
- Yeah. Frothin'.
- Good set.
Yeah, I bet you guys
pump heaps of chicks, hey?
Look at us. no way!
What do you mean,
you little bugger?
Dude, I am thinking
of putting on
something of my own
at the end of the year.
Oh, wow.
Something with
a few big main acts
and some local acts, you know?
Just let me know.
Yeah, man. We'll hit you up.
"Cheese" on three. Three.
Cheese!
Look after these boys, hey.
You want to come with?
Sure.
You guys want to chill?
Yeah, for sure. You serious?
What's this? Business cards.
Yeah, I know what it is.
But what's it for?
Networking, Maxie. Networking.
You're a dead-set legend.
You okay?
I'm just a little nervous.
Sit down, sis.
James's mum is pretty cool
for driving you fellas up.
Yeah, she's been very supportive
of the whole festival thing.
Wish my mum did that for me.
Same.
Do you remember that night
we came home from playing
in the park
and our mums were passed out?
And the firies kicked
the door in.
And the whole place
was up in smoke.
Wasn't that a cake in the oven?
An ice cream cake
in the fucking microwave.
Wrapped in foil!
Like, what the fuck?
How old were we?
It was my tenth birthday,
so you would have been
about five.
Fuck.
I never understood
why people have kids
if they're not going
to look after 'em, hey?
I don't think they
choose to be fuck-ups, though.
If I were a mum, I'd make sure
I was the best mum ever.
Me too. Easier said than done,
apparently.
Hey, how do you feel
about coming to a writers
workshop with me?
What's a writers' workshop?
Yours and Owls Festival
is putting on
an artist camp next month
and it's a few days
of song-writing,
recording, performing,
industry insights, you know?
Sounds awesome.
I think you'll learn a lot.
So, you keen?
- Knock, knock.
- Hey!
- Hey.
- This is my sister girl Summer
I was telling you about.
She said yes to coming
to the artist house with me.
Hey, good to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
- This is Billy, my manager.
Hey, the session tonight,
midnight till 10:00am.
We've got to get
those tracks done
and deliver them
for the label, yeah?
- Of course.
- Alright. Catch you soon.
So, you've got a manager now?
Kinda. He said he'll sign me
if something comes of it.
This is your business card?
- Yeah.
- You're promoting?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Oh, cool.
- Yeah, I just started out.
- Nice. Home printed. I like it.
Yeah, yeah.
I like it. You got to start
somewhere, man.
One, two, three. Titties!
- What's up?
- Maxie.
They're little frothers.
Maxie. G.
Look out, this guy's a promoter.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, yeah.
Take it easy.
See you, guys. Peace.
- See you, dudes.
- See ya!
What's going on?
I'm a big fan
of your music, dude.
Oh, thanks, man.
Did you track all of the drums
on the EP yourself?
Yeah, I did the drums, guitars,
vocals, synths.
Did it all in my bedroom.
That's where you made
Jeromo as well, hey?
Yeah, yeah, my drum. Yeah.
- Awesome.
- You know your stuff.
Yeah.
- It was lovely to meet you.
- Yeah, no worries.
And have the best time ever.
- Awesome. See you, dudes.
- Yeah.
- See ya!
- Laters.
The hell!

Don't worry 'bout me,

Hey.
Fancy seeing you two here.
Where'd you get that?
Merch tent.
Sick.
You not eating anything, James?
Nah, I'm sweet.
I've got plenty of food.
You should have something.
Have a carrot
or something. Here.
It's probably nothing.
He said he was going to call
just to check in.
Want a bite?
I'll be back.
Want me to come?
I can go to the toilet
on my own, you know.
Make some
noise for Hooligan Hefs!
Big Pineapple,

Pick myself up
Off the fucking floor
Yeah, this here, baby,
This here, babe, ain't love
So, take me as I am,
Watch me as I go
I've been sailing seas
While you drift afloat
And now you're standing
On a sidewalk
Calling Georgia
To come alive
But she's been dead
The whole time
And I cried
Hands up!
I am not afraid
To do this alone
I know that it scares you
But I am my own home
I am not afraid
To do this alone
I know that it scares you
But I am my own home
And I've cried
Oh
Hey!
I am not afraid
To do this alone
I know that it scares you
But I am my own home
And I've cried
Everything you say
Is bullshit
And everything you do
Is so sick
Bullshit
I'm a little messed up
I'm a little fucked up
Bullshit
How the fuck are ya?
Oi, let that fella up.
That's our mate, James.
- Hey, Jimmy. Come up, mate.
- Yeah, Jimmy!
Come up, mate.
Fuck yeah.
Hey, Jimmy.
This is Jimmy.
He's had a really fucking
rough time lately
and we saw him backstage
and we were like...
Can you play guitar?
I can play Scott Green!
Oi, buddy! Guitar!
Alright. We'll see how good
you know this fucker.
When I say sunshine,

- Sunshine!
- Cunts!
When I say Hair Man,

- Hair Man!
- Pineapple!
When I say Scott, you say Green!
Scott! Green!
At a party,

Doesn't matter to me
On the phone or watching TV

Cigarettes or LSD
It doesn't really matter
Just gimme gimme gimme

How fucking good was Jimmy?
Six pack
What the fuck?
Oh, shit.
Sorry.
You alright?
Are you?
Fine.
Here.
It was invented
to help with seasickness,
but it also works for nausea.
My pain meds make me feel...
It helps.
You don't need it?
No. This seems to be doing
the trick.
I can't feel a thing.
Your friends are really
worried, bro.
They've been looking for you
everywhere.
They'll live.
Hey, Marley?
Do you think everyone
takes me as a joke?
You're a special kid, James.
Don't beat yourself up so bad.
You've been drinking.
You know you can't drink
on your medication.
Have you had anything to eat?
So, how long did he give me?
Let's not do this now.
Six months?
Two weeks?
- Hey, please.
- Four years?
Eight days? Five years?
I can keep going. 24 hours?
They don't know.
Settle down.
I'll get you there.
Just a couple waves.
No, Kane! Just one!
Festival three.
Yours and Owls, Wollongong, NSW.
It's music by the sea
for a celebration
of unity and freedom
and it all begins
with a road trip.
Is it about the...
Is it about the destination
or is it the journey?
We'll soon find out
if we ever fucking get there.
One thing's for sure,
the music will always...
Shut up, James.
Who fucking cares?
- Hey.
- Hey.
How far off are you guys?
Kane keeps stalling us.
Now, he's surfing.
Maxie's out there
trying to hurry him up.
Should be there in two hours.
Okay, make sure you're not late.
I can't do it without you guys.
Welcome to the
Yours and Owls artist house.
As an extension
of Yours and Owls,
we've curated
some incredible artists,
not just to perform
on the stage,
but also to take part
in our artists' mentor camp.
I know you guys have selected
your Unearth artist to mentor.
Today is all about you lot.
We've got some writing sessions,
we've got a showcase
where you'll get to perform
a song each,
then the bus will take you
guys out to the festival site
to catch some of the last
few acts.
Let's get into it.
Whoo-hoo!
Welcome
To black boy boulevard
It's far from amazin
Where there chalk-sketched
Silhouettes
Of brothers on pavement
Where their white boy raised
And the black boy erased
This guy's in shackles,
We cuffs
It's that
Modern day slavery
Where my nose is wide
And my lips is swollen
And so this whip I'm drivin,
That must be stolen
I mean, what's he hidin,
What's he holdin
If that be the knife,
Then, duh
I can't breathe,
I can't breathe
With your knee in my neck
I'm just needin' a breath
Oh, I can't breathe,
I can't breathe, no, yeah
I'll just pretend
That we can't see an end
First verse is solid.
Love that last line.
How's he doing?
Still doing treatment.
Well, no point stressing
over things you can't control.
But this shit, you can control.
Let's finish that chorus.
Hold on a sec.
I'm just going to check
the notes on the guitar.
We had an all-nighter
in the studio.
I know you're going through
a lot right now.
I mean, seriously,
all that shit you've done.
Hanging with him,
hospital visits,
just watching him waste away.
I couldn't, hey.
I guess you weren't around
when mum got sick.
- He's not wasting away.
- Just trying to give you props
for being a decent friend,
you little shit.
Yeah, well, you told his
parents you'd be responsible.
Yeah, for getting youse
to the festival.
Yeah, the one we should
have been at hours ago.
And you also said you'd buy us
tickets to CityFest.
How do you know I didn't?
Bought 'em last week.
Thank you, Kane.
Thanks, Kane.
I'm going to need your help
with something there.
What?
No way.
Look, if I get caught,
I'll go back inside.
You get caught, you'll be sweet.
You're underage
with a clean record.
I'm not smuggling your stash in.
Don't you want to do
more festivals
with your dying buddy?
He's not dying!
Come on, Maxie.
Don't let James down, hey?
Come on, I'll cut you in.
Can't you just do
something for me
without wanting something
in return for once?
You've had your surf.
Now, let's go!
I promised Summer.
Good luck getting to Wollongong.
Oh, don't go it, you idiot.
You'll get hammered!
Maxie!
Fuck!
Little fucker almost drowned
trying to be a madman.
You right, Maxie?
Fuck! That board cost me
over a grand.
You fucking owe me.
I told you not to go that wave.
Now, look. My favourite board
is gone. You little shit.
You're going to owe me, Maxie.
Where did Kane go?
Pub.
Hope he gets hit by a fucking
car on the way back.
Ruthless.
Let it go, man.
I'm so sick of him
controlling my life.
Always making me do shit
I don't want to fucking do.
Like what?
Maxie, you don't have
to put up with his bullshit.
Easy for you to say.
You don't live with him.
I have to cop his shit every
day of my fucking life.
Sometimes I wish I could
just disappear.
Why don't you come live with me?
I'm serious, man.
My parents love you.
I'm sure they'll be sweet.
But what happens if...
You know...
I die?
Sorry. I shouldn't have said it.
It's all good.
If I die, you're fucked.
Cheers, cunt.
Cunty.
Are you scared?
I'm not scared.
I'm just confused.
Some days, I'm so psyched
I'm going to all these festivals
and planning my own events
and other days...
I think what's the point?
And just don't leave my room.
Today's going to be sick.
We'll go watch
Summer's showcasing
and then we'll see Dope Lemon
smash it.
I'm over it.
Over what?
All this festival shit.
Why?
I'm just tired.
I'm tired all the fucking time.
We need to see
this through, man.
We need to be there
for Summer, too.
What?
Did you just kiss my shoulder?
What's wrong with that?
What?
You're alright, Maxie.
- Hey, Mum.
- Hey, Sweetie.
Just checking you're
taking your medication.
Yeah. Any other troubles?
No. Kane's looking after us.
Oh, well, that's good.
You just call me though
if you're feeling any other...
Yeah, sorry, Maxie needs help
with something.
I've got to go.
Your parents are so cool
for letting you do this.
I wish I had parents like yours.
I wish I had parents.
That's fucked up.
Doesn't matter
how many wins you get,
how many losses we take,
we can't stop, we won't stop,
we keep going.
Gang, gang
Young boy, I came up,
Never gon' drop
From never bein' wanted
To the cream of the crop
Started at the bottom,
I done took it to the top
Yeah, it's a long Summer
'Cause you know we been hot
Even if they talk greasy,
No, we won't stop
Yeah, you don't believe it,
But we won't stop
We up on wins
And we won't stop
Never gon' freeze,
Won't stop
Yours and Owls,
have a great day!
Again.
But then you
Call me a friend
But we're so much closer
If anyone asks,
I'll say that you're all good
I'll just pretend
That we can't see an end
I don't believe you.
What do you mean?
This song is about
your dying best friend, right?
Yeah.
Then sing it like you mean it.
I wanna feel your pain.
From the top.
Let me feel it this time.
You call me your friend
But we're so much closer
If anyone
What did I do wrong?
You're holding back.
What are you afraid of?
- I'm not.
- You are.
Imagine you're at James's
funeral.
No, seriously.
James, your best friend,
has just passed away
and he left you this note.
He wants you to sing this song
at his funeral
as a beautiful send-off.
You're standing up the front
and how are you going
- to sing it?
- Marley, it's just a song.
Just a song?
This is an opportunity
to tell your story.
Everyone likes the idea
of becoming an artist
but only a few actually
make it about the music.
They're the ones that connect.
They're the ones that make
a career out of it
because it's coming
from an honest place.
- Hey, Blessed?
- Yeah, it's facts.
It's not like I'm lying.
But you're not being
completely honest either.
Summer, I'm trying to help you.
It's in there somewhere.
We just need to get it out.
Goin' back to this chick's
hotel room
- with some old mates of mine.
- Why?
Had too many beers to drive now.
I'm just going to crash there.
- Are you kidding?
- Don't worry.
There's a few young chicks
there too.
Youse wanna come
get your end wet, eh?
- Yeah.
- No.
No.
Right. Well, you go and sleep
in the van then.
It's going nowhere.
You said you wouldn't
let me down.
Relax, man-child.
We'll leave first thing.
- Take us now!
- Oh, yeah?
You gonna return the favour
at City Fest then, hey? Huh?
Kane!
What the fuck
are you thinking, Maxie?
What the fuck are you thinking?
Oh, here we go! Go on.
Let's go.
Maxie, don't.
Come on. Free shot. Come on!
You'd better fucking knock me
out or I'm gonna kill ya!
Come on, let's go.
Let's go, come on!
Come on! Right here!
Let's go!
You're a fucking weak cunt,
Maxie.
Even James would cave you in
and he can barely stand up.
Oh, did I upset you, princess?
You've reached JE Entertainment.
Leave a message.
Where are you guys?
Hurry up.
I'm on in about an hour.
Priests and the, the judges
Rabbis pay very well
We aren't really here
Said he didn't want it going
anywhere.
Let's go, let's go.
A way to die
Talking emptiness
Send to the edge
Bump shots and religion
The saloon is my refuge
Uptown folks pay very well,
Indeed
Thank you.
We've got a very special guest
here for you tonight
who really needs
no introductions.
Let's put our hands together
for Grinspoon's front man,
Phil Jamieson.
Thank you.
Thanks for having me at this
amazing artist guesthouse
at Yours and Owls Festival.
My first festival was
a Big Day Out many moons ago.
I was the first in the gate
and I was so excited, obviously.
It's indelibly burned
into my memory.
Hearing songs for the first time
live by bands
I'd never heard before
and I was overcome
by what festivals mean to me
and what they can create
for people.
And so that's where the magic
is, I think, in some ways.
For us, what we can create,
how we can communicate
to people.
My advice is
to the great artists
who are about to perform
right now,
is to, you know, trust
your gut, get weird,
get weirder, and make it happen.
Untouched by what
Potential be there
I guess I don't mind
Now I'm standing
With the turtles
Looking like an asshole
Like, what you want
From me, bro
I was just trying
To get some coin
Uh, it's a game over for me
I know that we was always
In since she heard my CD
Like
We were both
To what we thought
Nothing's lost,
This is how we trust
Let's go
Fair skin, long hair,
Blue eyes
Please tell me
Who's this guy
Caucasian
Jesus can't believe
You tried to make him white
Brown skin, curled hair,
Big nose
Yeah, that's probably
how it goes
So who's this guy I see
'Cause I know Jesus
Looks like me, let's go
Look like me
What's he look like
I think he looks like me
Hey, everyone.
I recently reconnected
with this young girl
after years of losing contact
and now,
she's my little sis again.
She's proven to be
a driven young artist,
so please give it up
for my girl, Summer.
Hi, everyone.
This is a song about
one of my best friends.
You know that I'm afraid
But you're Not even phased
You
So sorry.
I'm so sorry I wasted
your time, Marley.
The boys said they'd be here
and then they fucked me up.
Hey, hey, come here.
I just wanted him to hear it.
And he will.
Will he ever, though?
It's okay.
I'm here with you, okay?
I can't go back out there!
You can go back out there.
They're not here, Marley.
Summer, don't forget,
this is my reputation
on the line, too, you know?
And yours.
Stop blaming other people
and just get back out there.
Baby, it's a new day
Driving on the through-way
All I see
Is bright green lights
Come on!
Forget what you were coming
No, that shit ain't for me,
I'ma just live my life
My life
Come on!
It's my life
Come on!
It's my life
What do we do, yo
I do what I want,
I do what I want to do
My life, my life,
My life, my life
I do what I want,
I do what I want to do
Baby, it's a new day
Driving on the through-way
All I see
Is bright green lights
Forget what you were coming
No, that shit ain't for me
Summer!
Where are you going?
You said you'd be there for me!
CityFest, we love you.
Fuck, that was a close one.
Hey, cunt?
Fucking soldier.
We're even for my board now.
You still owe me
for my tyres but.
No, dog.
Here, smash it.
No. Come on, big boy. Here.
No, I'm all good. I'm all good.
More for me then, hey?
Let's fucking go, hey?
Here.
No, you're holding for me.
- You said.
- Yeah, I changed my mind.
Let's go.
- Shit.
- What?
Cops are out there. Fuck!
What are we gonna do?
No, listen.
You stay here and don't let
anyone in till I come back.
You got it?
You fucking got it?
Alright!
Lock the door.
Sickness with the flow and
I been down from the get-go
Stars I create
Originated in lake salt
Perfecto,
Short cunts like electro
Bout to get these one-on
What the fuck you expect,
Though?
Koori for the city
But the homeland be
More it matters,
We the matters
Bunch as far as you see
Good boy, new relation,
That's the family tree
To all the hoodlums
And accomplices
You can find me
In the South-East
Chilling every day,
My bread
Young rappers caught me
Reminiscing bout
This life I led
We're a long way from
Poppin' pharmaceutical meds
And if we aren't
We're gonna end up dead
Brothers out there selling
Coke at the crack-spot
Lose it in a match-box
Runnin' from the guns you
Shootin' wherever that's from
Try to show it better
But I fade into the backdrop
Now the only communication
Is through a laptop
Hey
So take the stays I bring
Kickin knowledge for my
Queens And young black kings
But I hustle so my daughters
Get the finest of things
We makin' deals
When we sell fine rings
But it's easy livin' large
Gotta make it
Out the struggle
Thankful for my daughter
'Cause she
Keep me outta trouble
Money comin' in but
I intend to make it double
Don't sit here
Keepin' it humble
We focussed on makin'
Bundles, unh
And everything ok
Mama proud 'cause she know
We make it out one day
She just happy that
I didn't go the funeral ways
We on our own,
Fuck minimum wage
So go and check the socials
Follow on this journey
If you like-a my sound
I've gone around town
As I pound for pound
And that ain't
Never gonna stop
Till they put me
In the ground, for real
Yo. I'm up here.
Thank you, Cityfest.
Until next time. See ya.
Yeah, ugh,
Ridin' through the fire
Hundred miles,
Ain't no slowing now
Keep it, keep it goin' now
Devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Pray to God that
I'ma get out this alive
Sold my smoke, asthmatics
Scratchin' the rim of my car
See, I just went
over the limit
Turn at the boulevard,
speed like a busy
Yuh, got ballistic lyrics,
Got cold blood like a lizzie
Yuh, whoa, whoa
Got my window tinted
Can't see me when
I'm pullin' up in it
In it, and I'm sick when
I spit it, runnin' this shit
'Cause the shoe
just fitted, fitted
Oh, yeah, we kill it
Cops in the house
Wanna stop this feelin', oh
And you know how we live it
Yeah we know
Because the hole keep ringin'
Eyes on the horizon
And my mollies keep arising
Ride until I reach the line,
Then I'll be back reclinin
Gravity define us,
So I only keep arisin'
Urge anyone who try it, oh
Yeah, unh,
Ridin' through the fire
Hundred miles,
Ain't no slowin' now
Keep it, keep it goin' now
Let's go, devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Yeah, ugh,
Ridin' through the fire
Hundred miles,
Ain't no slowin' now
Keep it, Keep it goin' now
Devil on my mind,
Think it's over now
Pray to God that
I'ma get out this alive
Maxie!
Where are you?
Maxie, where are you?
- Fuck.
- Where are you?
- I'm in the toilet.
- Which one?
Toilet, the big one.
Stay there, don't move.
CityFest! Make some noise...

Maxie! You in there?
- Open the door!
You okay?
Dude? Tell me what you've taken.
Tell me what you've taken.
Maxie! Oi!
- Just one.
- One what?
Shit. Maxie, one what?
Bum-bag.
That's my chemo bag, dickhead.
What about your shit man-bag?
Are you in Adelaide now?
Mad bum-bag, brother!
Oh, fuck.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Tell me you didn't take
this shit.
What is it?
- It's G.
- What's G?
- GHB.
- What the fuck is GHB?
Liquid ecstasy.
Maxie.
Did you take anything else?
Maxie, is this Kane's shit?
Did he make you take it?
- Maxie.
- Bum-bag.
Maxie, I need you to listen.
Shut the fuck up.
You sound like my fucking mum
when she's all fucked up.
Why would he take that shit?
Maybe he's having a hard time
dealing with his best mate
being sick.
Drink.
Hey, hey, drink.
Trust me, it's going to help.
That's it, that's it.
- No, Maxie.
- My mind!
Hey, you're just off your head.
You just need to throw up.
Hey, look, stop.
I fuckin' ruined it.
I'm sorry. I promise, I'm...
It'll be fine.
Shit.
He's geeing out.
What do we do?
Should we call the ambos?
Fuck no!
Are you kidding me? Call Kane.
What's Kane going to do?
He's a fucking idiot.
Who else are we supposed
to call?
Oh, fuck.
Shit, shit, shit.
Kane! Kane!
Look, Maxie's off his head.
I don't know, fuck!
I used to love dinosaurs
When I was a kid
I wasn't afraid
I was brave and courageous
With everything I did
Come on, Kane.
Come on, Kane. Pick up. Pick up.
I'm scared of the fact
I've been to More funerals
Kane! Kane!
Oh, fuck!
Yeah, I've lost
Some close mates of mine
And I'm scared of surfing
Held underwater choking
And I'm trying
To impress you
Is it working acting blokey
And I
I used to love dinosaurs
When I was a kid
I wasn't afraid
I was brave and courageous
With everything I did...
Please don't die.
Please don't die.
Maxie.
Hey, hey.
That's it, that's it,
that's it, that's it.
Oh, my God.
And I feel like a loser
I've forgotten how to imagine
and pretend...
Fucking hell.
So I'll just watch Jurassic
Park for the 50th time
Avoiding plans I've made
With my own friends
I'm so sorry.
It's okay, mate.
You okay?
Yeah.
I've got to get some air.
Come on, Maxie.
Let's get out of here, okay?
No, I can't.
We just missed Ruby Fields.
And we're going to miss
Marley's set. Come on.
Come on, dude. Let's go.
You guys go.
I'm staying here.
We're all leaving right now.
Look, I'll go first
so it's not suss, okay?
- Fuck.
- What?
Sniffer dogs.
Alright, problem solved.
You've got to be kidding me.
That's why Kane
bought us the tickets.
He'd go back to gaol
if he got caught.
And you'll go to gaol
if you get caught.
He said I'd be sweet.
Dude, you can't keep
living like this.
He's my brother!
Yeah, and he should be
taking care of you.
Police, open up.
Fuck. I'll take the hit.
Fuck that.
You're not taking a hit
for Kane.
- What are you doing?
- Open up.
No, don't flush it.
- He'll fucking kill me.
- Give it, Maxie.
- James, don't do it.
- Fuck Kane.
Open the door now.
Just a second!
Open up.
Youse fucking shit yourselves,
hey?
It's not funny, Kane.
Oh, I'm Cunt-stable Peppa.
You got any illegal substances
on you, young man? Hey, hey?
I'm just geeing you up, bruh.
Cops are all gone.
It's all good.
Now, come on. Give it to me.
Come on, give it to me.
Where is it, Maxie? Hey?
Where is it?
I flushed it.
You fucking cunt, hey?
What the fuck do you think
you're doing?
Get the fuck off him.
You just flushed
a couple of grand.
- Get the fuck of him!
- Fuck off, Max!
- Maxie!
- I fucking hate you!
- I fucking hate you!
- Maxie!
Maxie!
Okay, he's had enough!
Bro, you knocked Kane out cold.
I don't want to be like them.
You're nothing like them.
Oh ay oh, dance with me
Hey, James,
check this chick out.
Pretty sure he doesn't wanna see
absolutely everything.
I mean, if you do, that's sweet.
We can totally show it
all to you.
Only what's on my list.
But that chick is a lord.
Hi, guys.
- Hey, Sue!
- Hey, Sue!
Hey, don't forget
I've booked the taxi
to pick you up
at the main gate at 8:30.
Don't you miss that flight.
That's too early.
We'll miss all the main acts.
No worries, Sue! Thanks heaps!
Oh, James, I forgot to ask.
How did you hook the passes up?
Bliss N Eso. Been in touch
with them since Big Pineapple.
- Legend.
- I wish you were here with us.
I am.
How's it all going?
Great.
Should be back home next week.
Just in time for Splendour.
Yeah. That's the plan.
Check this shit out.
One, two, three, go!
They seem like
they're having fun, mate.
Um...
Yeah.
Hey, we can record
this thing outside
whenever you're feeling
up to it, okay?
Okay.
My name's Space Cadet,
and I'm fuckin' done, son!
When we walkin'
Through your hood
We look like kings
I can change your life
With just one ring
'Cause I'm as crazy
With the whole 'ching-ching
If we talkin' "sh",
People talkin' on the phone
Tough with your clique
Till I see you on your own
Nike with the tick 'cause
I'm certi and I'm known
Where the Freakz at
We got that bass dropping,
People jumping
All over the world
Got them speakers pumpin
No.
Yes.
I haven't spoken to her
for weeks.
If she sees me,
it will be awkward.
Well, then maybe you need
to go say hi
before she goes on
so it's not awkward.
No, I'm just going to watch
from the crowd.
Maxie can FaceTime you
from side stage.
It's the biggest
performance of her career.
I have to see her perform
before she...
Shit.
Alright.
Whoo
Go.
She's not here. She's probably...
Hey.
- Where's the boys at?
- Maxie's here.
James couldn't make it
but he's on the mend.
Good to hear.
Hey, I'm really sorry
about everything.
What was that?
I said I'm really sorry
about everything.
Can you guys please
just fuck it off?
Thank you!
Fuck.
It's fine by me.
It's yourself
you should apologise to.
Hey, Marley.
They're definitely here,
and they're keen to sit down
after the show, alright?
I'll see you up there.
- Label?
- Yep.
That's awesome.
- Marley, you're on in ten.
- Okay.
Fuck.
Hey, it's okay.
You're going to kill it.
Fuck, fuck!
Marley, you're bleeding.
Close the tent!
Fuck. It should have stopped
hours ago.
Marley, do you need me to go
get you pads?
- I can probably find some.
- No.
Marley, do you need to go...
Fuck!
I'm eight weeks.
Was.
Marley, we're going
to the hosp...
We're going
to the hospital, right?
Yep.
Five minutes, Marley!
After the show.
No, Marley. Go now.
Summer! I don't need you!
I've done this show on my own
long enough!
Yeah.
Ain't no-one like she!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Congratulations.
We made it.
Welcome to the new era.
It's been a long time
coming, y'all.
But we're here now.
Fuck you gon' do?
How many queens you really know
can flow... like this,
like this, like this?
Let's get it, girls
How many queens
You know roll like this
How many queens
You know flow like this
Not many, if any
How many queens
You know got the skills
To go and rock
A show like this
Uh-uh, uh-uh
I don't know anybody
Check, check,
Last time I checked
One, two, very few
Coming through with the raps
That bitch in a bar
Comin' through with the bars
Dude had his time,
Now it's my au revoir
Callin' shots,
Flippin' scripts
Killin' off misogynists
So cut that bullshit
Before I rock your face
With a toy dick, aye
Bow down, bitch,
Get on your knees
Have you ever seen
Some things like these
Skin so tough all melanin,
Just all bust, no silicone
Got to get these wins
By any means necessary
Fuck rules, street tactics
Won't stop
Till my status legendary
Greatness, fantastic
Scroll down all the way
Do it right, go to town
Slow till it low
Never know when
The cash flow gon' stop
So we go gung-ho
Till we drop drop
Check it out
Let's go
How many queens
You know roll like this
How many queens
You know f low like this
Not many, if any
How many queens
You know got the skills
To go and rock
A show like this
Uh-uh, uh-uh
I don't know anybody
Peace!
Rise and shine.
What a massive day
we have coming up.
This has got to be
the biggest event
on the Australian music calendar
and what a line-up we have.
Whoo!
How good's this?
Festival six.
I bet you guys never thought
I'd make it.
Okay, shit joke.
Sorry.
But who's going to stop me now?
If you're watching this,
well, it means I'm long gone.
Which means you probably need
a pick-me-up,
so Maxie's going to hate
hearing this first one
but I love you guys so much.
Sorry if that makes
you awkward, Maxie.
Get over it.
Secondly, even though I didn't
make it to festival six,
but died trying,
I had the best time
giving it a good crack
with the two best friends
anyone could ask for.
And if Mum followed through
with this one,
well, then she's an absolute
champion.
May your lives remain
a music-playing,
festival-slaying,
dream-chasing adventure.
Cheers, cunts.
- Cunty.
- Cunty.
Man, I'm going to miss
this shit.
I've got something
to show you guys.
Enjoy.
Oi, dickheads!
Utopia Valley.
This place is an experience
beyond the music.
The line-up this year
is absolutely mental,
headlined by Peking Duk,
bringing in the new year.
Three, two, one.
Happy New Year!
Not.
Maxie.
FTP.
Big Pineapple, the best
and worst day of my life.
We met the sickest artists
and I became the fourth member
of my favourite band,
Dune Rats.
The referee
has stopped this bout
at a time of 1 minute,
28 seconds
in the first round,
declaring the winner by TKO,
a new heavyweight champion
of the world,
The Loose Cannon, Bong Rat,
Maximus!
What are you making, Maxie?
Tattoo gun, man.
Our own little tour
lives on forever.
So, promise me one thing.
Don't stop the tally
till your arm is a sleeve
and I'll keep dancing up here
in VIP.
Sue to Maxie.
Go ahead, Sue.
Ten minute warning.
I repeat, ten minutes
till doors.
Copy.
Oh, and I've ironed
your shirt for you.
- It's up in your room.
You're such a legend, Sue.
Uh-oh
Didn't you know
My skin was sore
Didn't you know
I felt no more
Ruby Fields needs to be
on a flight by 9pm,
so she needs to leave by
7:00 pm at the latest.
Make sure there's cold tinnies
for the Dune Rats.
They hate warm beer.
So stoked you guys
made it out here.
We wouldn't miss it.
Make sure the music
is over by 10:00pm
so the neighbours
don't call the cops.
This is our first festival, so
we don't want any heat on us.
No way! Marley's here.
What?
Hey, Marley.
- Hey.
- Hey.
So sorry about James.
No, he would have been
stoked you came.
Wouldn't miss it
for the world, bruz.
Thanks for coming, Marley.
Alright, I'll be back in a sec.
Aren't you supposed to be
on that US tour?
Pulled out of the tour.
So sorry.
Maybe I wasn't ready
to be a mum yet.
Hey, you will one day.
You'll be an amazing mum.
Well, I definitely won't heat
up an ice cream cake
wrapped in foil
in the microwave.
Hey, look, I'm sorry
if I carried on a little bit.
I just wanted you to know
that I believe in you.
Thanks for everything, Marley.
Look at you with your own
dressing room now.
Not exactly my own.
Sorry to interrupt.
Summer, you're on now.
- And a tour manager?
- That's right.
Go kill 'em, sis.
You know that I'm afraid
And you're not even phased
You've come
To terms with fate
I wasn't brought up
That way
I'm sure that the music
Will drown out my thoughts
A bottle would drown
Them out more
You'll leave me another day
Don't cut me loose
Before you go away
But then you call me
A friend, boy
You're so much closer
If anyone asks,
I'll say that we're all good
I'll just pretend
That we can't see the end
Can't let myself let go
So let me hold you close
And I'll act like
I don't know
That we don't
Have long to go
But then you call me
A friend
But we're so much closer
If anyone asks,
I'll say that we're all good
I'll just pretend
That there isn't an end
Yeah, Summer. That was sick.
Alright, coming up next,
we've got Ruby Fields
and Dune Rats!
I see your shadow
On the street now
I hear you push through
The rusty gate
Click of your heels
On the concrete
Waiting for a knock
Coming way too late
It seems like an age
Since I've seen you
Countdown as the weeks
Trickle into days
So you come in
And put your bags down
I know there's something
In the air
How can I do this to you
Right now?
If you're over there
When I need you here
My happiness
Is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts
Sinking in
It must be when you
Pack up and go
Let's sing it for James!
It seems like an age
Since I've seen you
Countdown as the weeks
Trickle into days
I hope that time
Hasn't changed you
All I really want
Is for you to stay
So you come in
And put your bags down
I know there's something
In the air
How can I do this
To you right now?
You're over there
When I need you here
My happiness
Is slowly creeping back
Now you're at home
If it ever starts
Sinking in
It must be when you
Pack up and go
Whoo! Yeah!
We are the greatest band
in the world! Ha!
Never thought
There'd be a time
Everything would be okay
But you came in
The nick of time
In the nick of time
To save the day
Everything that you define
Is basically what I need
It started on the inside
And now it's taken over me
One time, one time
Was incomplete
And badly in need of you
One time, one time
Was incomplete
Never thought
You would come
In the form that you'd come
With your sunlight
When darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me,
Darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me
I don't want to
Live a lie no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
I don't want to
Dim my light no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
No
I ain't coming down, no
No no, no no, no no,
I ain't coming down
You're practically
The reason
I've become a new me
Was headed down
That dark road
And you create
A perfect parody
But I'm far from perfect
Still get nervous,
A work in progress
Knowing I'm a better man
'Cause I'm not where
I used to be
One time, one time
Was incomplete
And badly in need of you
One time, one time
Was incomplete
Never thought
You would come
In the form that you'd come
With your sunlight
When darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me,
Darkness surrounds me
Darkness surrounds me
I don't wanna
Live a lie no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
I don't wanna
Dim my light no more
That's over
I ain't coming down
No
I ain't coming down, no
No no, no no, no no,
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down
Down Down down down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down
I ain't coming down now
No way, ain't coming down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down
I ain't coming down now
No way, coming down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down
I ain't coming down now
No way, coming down
I ain't coming down
I ain't coming down now
Down down down down
I ain't coming down now
I ain't coming down
