Trying to escape his past, Eddie changed his name and has maintained a quiet life as construction worker Joe West in Montreal. However, the past will not die, it is screaming for resolution. His relentless desire to make music pulls him back to the stage where he forms a new band and an even better sound. Meanwhile, record company executives release newly-discovered tapes from Eddie's last album and promotes a worldwide search for the mysterious rock star.

If there's any damage,

you are going to pay for it.

Hey, pal,

the only damage I see

is you don't understand

her work.

MAN:
This is

a private showing.

Do you have

an invitation?

Diane invited me.

That was a mistake.

Oh, yeah, it was.

And not my first.

EDDIE:
Hey, come on,

take it easy.

You'll have other shows.

DIANE:
Your first show

is the most important.

I was hoping...

Forget it.

Let me give you

a ride home.

I'd rather walk.

Yeah, I'd like

to walk with you,

but I just bought

this painting,

and I like it a lot

and I don't want it to get ruined.

So help me

put it in my car, huh?

Do you really like it?

Yeah.

I can't believe you

did it from memory.

EDDIE:
Come on,

I want to show you something.

What are you doing?

I thought you were taking me home.

Don't you want

to go roller-skating?

Why in the hell

would I want to go roller-skating?

Why not?

Because I just

screwed up, I'm very depressed

and I don't know

how to roller-skate.

That's perfect.

I don't, either.

Come on.

(POP MUSIC PLAYING)

This is nuts.

I know. Come on, huh?

(GROANS)

(CHILDREN LAUGHING)

Are you all right?

You want I should

lay that girl out?

Come on.

Having fun yet?

Joe, I'm never gonna

be able to do this.

Sure you can.

Just follow the flow

of my legs, dear.

What, one foot?

One foot at a time.

You can try to move

both of them, but you'll probably fall.

You know

how to roller-skate, don't you?

Let's see.

Whoa.

All right, skaters,

get ready for some exciting music.

Tonight, right here

at Bobby's Rink,

we're gonna

give you a preview of the mystery tape

from the great Eddie Wilson!

Satin Records'

latest release!

Yes! It's called

Emotional Storm!

(EMOTIONAL STORM PLAYING)

What's wrong?

My legs got tired.

They didn't seem tired.

Just take your skates off

and let's get out here, okay?

Fine.

Hey, how you doing, man?

Listen, I was thinking

about what you were talking about...

Forget about

what I said, whatever it was.

You were right, man.

My music was missing something.

Man, get off of my back.

Remember when

we were jamming the other day?

Well, I made

a tape cassette, man.

You gotta hear this.

Not now.

Come on.

I gotta talk to you

about my band!

Come here, kid.

I don't want to talk to you

about any goddamn band!

So get off of my back,

all right?

Joe, take it easy.

Let him go.

Man, I just wanted

to jam with you.

If you don't

want it, fine.

Come on.

I don't feel right

keeping your painting without paying for it.

So when I get

the money together, I'll come back for it.

So, you do remember

how to talk, huh?

I mean,

you haven't said a word all the way here.
