Scarlet chewed him up and spat him out, 969 01:32:25,093 --> 01:32:28,369 so it doesn't matter that I was banging his girl the whole time. 970 01:32:28,453 --> 01:32:32,082 I could've had an orgy with his cousin, sister, grandparents and Scarlet, 971 01:32:32,173 --> 01:32:34,607 and that moron still wouldn't have known. 972 01:32:34,693 --> 01:32:37,161 Hey, guys.

If they're any good, it'll give me an edge on the deal. 979 01:33:06,933 --> 01:33:12,053 I hope you don't mind, but, uh, it's kind of a killer opener. 980 01:34:08,293 --> 01:34:11,524 My big moment. The moment I finally had to admit to myself 981 01:34:11,613 --> 01:34:13,922 that we just weren't very good. 982 01:34:14,013 --> 01:34:18,325 But sucking as much as we did that day - and our suckage factor was enormous - 983 01:34:18,413 --> 01:34:21,371 we still got to play in front of a whole country full of people. 984 01:34:21,453 --> 01:34:25,810 It was the most fun it was humanly possible for any of us to ever have. 985 01:34:36,013 --> 01:34:39,562 About seven months later, Katie and I got married. Joe was best man. 986 01:34:39,653 --> 01:34:42,451 Joe Junior made an appearance too. 987 01:34:45,373 --> 01:34:50,891 Bruno won a million bucks in some contest by finding a purple Chocca. Lucky sod! 988 01:34:50,973 --> 01:34:54,488 So he bought the Palace right out from under that butt-crumb Thommo. 989 01:34:54,573 --> 01:34:57,565 We took the pokies and smashed them all with polo mallets. 990 01:34:57,653 --> 01:35:00,486 Ladies and gentlemen, how we doin'? 991 01:35:00,573 --> 01:35:03,246 Me and Joe manage Bruno's, and now the bands are back. 992 01:35:03,333 --> 01:35:05,972 There's been a bit of a scheduling mix-up. 993 01:35:06,053 --> 01:35:10,410 In the meantime, the house band's gonna rip through a few for ya. 994 01:35:10,493 --> 01:35:14,452 Every few months, I give a band the wrong start time and slip us in ahead of them. 995 01:35:14,533 --> 01:35:17,331 We might suck, but I never said we were idiots. 996 01:35:30,853 --> 01:35:33,686 Tanya finished uni and went into anger management. 997 01:35:33,773 --> 01:35:38,483 Lucy was the surprising one. He got a degree in pharmacy and went into business. 998 01:35:41,173 --> 01:35:43,607 What goes around, comes around, I guess. 999 01:35:47,453 --> 01:35:51,924 Joe kept up his medication and fell in love with a primary-school teacher. 1000 01:35:52,573 --> 01:35:55,531 Now, instead of one kid, he's got 35. 1001 01:35:57,333 --> 01:35:59,767 Kevin. Well, he's the same. 1002 01:36:00,933 --> 01:36:04,972 Some things just don't need to change. That's good, right? 1003 01:36:05,053 --> 01:36:10,047 As for Katie, she never got to experience the highs and lows of being a rock star's wife. 1004 01:36:10,133 --> 01:36:13,682 But I think she's OK with it. And me, a rock star? 1005 01:36:14,333 --> 01:36:19,726 Not my destiny. Still, you don't have to be a rock star to feel like one. 1006 01:39:31,093 --> 01:39:34,244 Visiontext Subtitles: Yasmeen Khan 1007 01:40:56,453 --> 01:40:58,444 ENGLISH
