Mistaken for Strangers Page #2

Synopsis: In 2010, rock band The National were about to embark on the biggest tour of their career. After ten years as a band, and five critically acclaimed albums, they were finally enjoying wider recognition. Lead singer Matt Berninger invited his younger brother, Tom, to join the tour's crew. A budding horror filmmaker, Tom - who is nine years younger than Matt and listens exclusively to heavy metal - decided to bring his camera along. Tom's at sea in the world of indie rock, and living in his brother's shadow brings out the younger sibling in him - he drinks, complains, and struggles to balance his ambition with his tour responsibilities. The result is a film about brothers and about making something of your own.

Uh-huh. No.

No I haven't actually.

I thought I emailed it to you?

But, regardless...

Oh. Okay.

Maybe I did see that.

Yeah.

It's basically

just a list of food.

Okay.

I just want you to

make sure that it's all there.

Okay.

I'd like to

say it is simple, but it's not.

Is there anything,

like, in particular

for, like, Bryce or Aaron?

Well, you know them well enough

- to figure that out.

- Yeah. Okay.

You know, just moving down

the list,

as far as the show time

is concerned,

you need to assemble the band

five minutes before the show.

So you got to make sure

everybody's gone

to the bathroom, you know.

Bryan's usually in

the bathroom for, like, forever.

And then during the show,

I just want you to stay

on radio communication.

Okay?

So, I just want you to make sure

you're available,

in the event that something

horribly wrong goes down.

Why I'm saying that,

is because you're here,

because we need someone

to do this stuff.

- Right.

- And, you know,

you just need to be

careful about...

not partying.

And, you know,

you're not a band member,

you're a crew member.

- Right.

- This sh*t has to get done.

Don't step backwards.

Hey, Tom. I can't do this

right now, dude.

You got

to leave me alone. Seriously.

Can you stop!

Terry!

You need to tell me

if this is getting brighter?

Go for Tom Berninger.

Do you copy?

I copy. Go ahead.

Ready for your brother

down here.

Copy that.

He's already angry at me.

It's day one.

Everyone's grumpy.

Tom. Do you copy?

Matt!

He... I just

saw him go downstairs actually.

Matt, this is awesome!

Have you ever played

for this many people before?

Nope. No, it's going to be...

It's going to be weird.

It's going to be fun.

Why don't you just scream,

like, ahhh!

Like...

Yeah, maybe.

Go in the bathroom

and shut the door.

I'll go in here.

I was thinking, you know,

Lynyrd Skynyrd, when he died?

Well, I don't know-- the guy,

not "Leonard" himself.

They had his brother

take over for the band.

So...

This could be a...

He is my...

Seriously, man, talk about

riding his coattails.

Literally, right now,

I'm riding about

eight coattails.

Two minutes, everyone!

So yeah.

Are you rolling?

Double decker bus.

Hello?

London.

So, how famous

do you think you are?

Aaa...

Not very famous.

Like, this famous.

What was that?

What were you holding

in your hands?

No, I meant, like,

a small amount of fame.

Are you asking

in terms of US Weekly fame?

Like celebrity?

Because we're not,

we're not, really famous...

You are way more famous

than any of my friends.

That's? Okay, I--

Just stand right there.

Okay.

You know,

this is good too because I need
