  • Mitch Cohen : [while eating dinner]  What is it you do, Leonard? For work?

    Leonard Crabbe : Oh, for work. I'm in the bladder management industry. I sell catheters. I have my own distribution company, Sure Flo Medical Appliances. You may have heard of it. It's actually named in tribute after my mother, her name was Florence. It's a growth industry, really, because one in three people over 60 either have a flaccid or a spastic bladder, so in a sense, every 13.5 seconds a new incontinent is born, as it were. People like you and I have what they call "leakage problems." They can be running, playing tennis, laughing, sneezing, anything. I mean, the good old constipation, you know. You have impacted fecal mass in your rectum, you find that pushing on your bladder...

    Mickey Crabbe : You know, this might make good dessert talk.

  • Mitch Cohen : You know, 35 years ago, preparing for a concert meant playing "find the cobra" with the hotel chambermaid.

  • Leonard Crabbe : [Leonard shows Mitch his model trains]  This whole area here is called Crabbe Town. We've got a brothel down there above the saloon. And right down there further along I'm thinking of building a French Quarter. I've actually got a bit of French blood.

    Mitch Cohen : I would love to see this town in the autumn. I think Crabbeville in autumn would look quite magnificent. I would have made tiny little leaves, oak, poplar, maple, chestnut, and spread them across the town of Crabbeville. Magnificent.

    Leonard Crabbe : It's Crabbe Town, not Crabbeville.

  • Mickey Crabbe : It does not seem like yesterday that Mitch and I met and started making music together. I don't know if any of you would know or even remember that Mitch and I met in the hospital. Mitch was there with his jaw wired shut after defending the honor of a girl he didn't even know. Me. And I of course was there to visit, I felt really bad. And the only way that Mitch could communicate with me was on paper. Every word of it poetry. And if you don't mind, MItch, I have the very first poem that you wrote me: Parched in exile / thirsty for your smile / though silence behind this barbed wire mask / your spirit burns through that I might bask / in your cool misty loveliness.

    Mitch Cohen : I just wanted a drink of water.

  • Mitch Cohen : It's like it's 1968... or 67... or 66... umm...

    Mickey : The good years.

  • Mark Shubb , Alan Barrows , Jerry Palter , Terry Bohner , Laurie Bohner , Mitch Cohen , Mickey Crabbe : [singing]  Oh, a mighty wind's a-blowing, It's kicking up the sand, It's blowing out a message, To every woman, child and man, Yes, a mighty wind's a-blowing, Cross the land and cross the sea, It's blowing peace and freedom, It's blowing equality, Yes, it's blowing peace and freedom, It's blowing you and me!

  • Mitch Cohen : [deleted scene - Mitch practising When I'm next to you]  You know, I'm gonna take this down one fret. I've a feeling it *was* two frets up, I hope. I'm a 36 waist now not a 34.

  • Mitch Cohen : [singing]  Your kiss

    Mitch Cohen , Mickey Crabbe : There's a kiss at the end of the rainbow

    [kiss] 

    Mitch Cohen , Mickey Crabbe : More precious than a pot of gold

  • Mitch Cohen : Seeing these long lines of fans who want nothing more than to have you sign an autograph, it's like it's 1968... Or '67... Or '66.

  • Mitch Cohen : I feel ready for whatever the experience is that we will... take with us after the show. I'm sure it will be... an adventure... a voyage on this... magnificent vessel... into unchartered waters! What if we see sailfish... jumping... and flying across the magnificent orb of a setting sun?

  • Mickey Crabbe : I was playing with my sisters, Jocelyn, Claire, Estelle. We were the North Four. We were on-stage and we had a horrible little heckler. A little guy, but with the loudest voice in the world. And just, you know, "Take off your tops" and "Get off the stage" and...

    Mitch Cohen : "You sing Like crap!" "You get off the stage!" Very inarticulate. Rude.

    Mickey Crabbe : Mean. Mean little bugger. And all of the sudden this, we couldn't see clear, you got the lights on us, but I see this tall, dark figure go over and, you know, there's this intense little - something going on, and all of a sudden, he's pummeled. The crap pummeled out of him.

    Mitch Cohen : I was - I don't remember much. But the next thing I know, I'm in a hospital,

  • Mitch Cohen : What do you do, Leonard? For work?

    Leonard Crabbe : Oh work! I'm in the bladder management industry. I sell catheters. I've started my own distribution company, Sure Flo, you might have heard of it.
