Quotes 

  • [When Jimmy is reluctant to sign a management contract] 

    Lenny : Are you crazy? A man in a really nice camper wants to put our song on the radio! Gimme a pen; I'm signin', you're signin', we're all signin'!

  • Jimmy : [Speaking about Diane Dane]  She told me never trust a label. And I'm beginning to believe her.

    Lenny : Well, sure. I mean, come on. They put us up in a first class hotel, all expenses paid, while our record climbs the charts; bunch of lyin' snakes.

    Jimmy : Sorry I'm buggin' you! I guess I'm alone in my principles.

    [leaves the room] 

    Lenny : Oh come on. Oh, there he goes off to his room to write that hit song "Alone in my principles."

  • Villapiano : Know what that is?

    Lenny : [pauses, then answers hesitantly]  Pres - idential flash cards?

    Villapiano : A bonus. Do you know why?

    Lenny : I have no idea.

    Villapiano : To entice you back! The word is out on you O-neders!

    Lenny : Hey, that's O-nedders!

  • Lenny : "Skitch", how did we get here?

    Guy : I led you here, sir, for I am Spartacus.

  • Mr. White : Next, this "Oneders", with the O-N-E, it doesn't work. It's confusing. From now on, you boys'll just be... simply The Wonders.

    Lenny : As in, I *wonder* what happened to the O'Needers?

  • Faye : [extended version]  Guys, Chad's arm is so scary. I've never seen anything swell up so big, so fast.

    Lenny : Don't take that personally, Jimmy.

  • Lenny : [when asked what The Wonders' musical influences are]  Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters.

  • [during a TV interview with band at the Illinois State Fair] 

    Lenny Haise : Oh, I'm not here with these fellas. I've got a pig in competition over at the livestock pavilion, and *I* am gonna win that blue ribbon!

  • Mr. White : It is very important that you don't stink today.

    Lenny Haise : Hey, I make no guarantees.

  • Lenny Haise : So how long have you worked at Play-tone?

    Receptionist : How long have you been wearing such tight pants?

    Lenny Haise : Hey, if that's a pick-up line we're a match made in heaven.

  • Lenny : I play a lot of cards. Obviously. Wanna see my deck?

    [he flashes his cards] 

    Lenny : See? You gotta be quick! You gotta be quick with me! I'm from Erie, PA!

  • Guy : Hey, Uncle Bob, when are we gonna get these records?

    Uncle Bob : [thinks]  Ah... Luke 21:19.

    The Bass Player : And your patience possess ye your souls.

    Lenny : Luke? Who's Luke? When are we gettin' the records?

    Uncle Bob : Wednesday.

  • Lenny : He's got a very pretty girlfriend, doesn't he?

    Chrissy : Is it serious, do you know?

    Lenny : Very serious. I'm single!

    Chrissy : [thoughtful pause]  What about the bass player?

    Lenny : He's married!

  • Lenny : Hey, wasn't that our fan?

  • Lenny : Thank you, Illinois! The Land of Lincoln!

  • Lenny : [at Villapiano's after they've sung "All My Only Dreams"]  Table 19, your pizza's ready.

  • Guy : Yeah, we were pretty wild up in Erie, Penn.

    Lenny : There was this one time, we stayed up *way* past midnight, and...

    [starts laughing] 

  • Lenny Haise : Here's the thing, we're not "The Wonders" right now, we're "Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters".

  • Lenny : [girls climb on top of car]  Well... *I* like Wisconsin.

  • Heckler : Hey, when are you gonna play "That Thing You Do!"?

    Lenny : Ah, has our fame preceded us?

    Heckler : We came here to meet girls and dance, and we can't meet girls until we dance!

    Lenny : [to Jimmy, the Bass Player, and Guy]  All right, this seems like an opportune moment to pick it up a little.

    [to the heckler] 

    Lenny : OK, here's one for the kid in the back.

  • Mr. White : He was joining the Marines in August anyway. It was gonna happen sooner or later. Guy, say hello to Scott Pell, Wolfman.

    Jimmy : How you doing?

    Guy : Uh, replacement?

    Mr. White : Yes.

    Jimmy : Who's he player with?

    Mr. White : The Techniques, uh...

    Scott 'Wolfman' Pell : Roy Maxwell and the Corsairs.

    Lenny : Ha-ha... really?

    Mr. White : He's your new bass player.

    Guy : Mr. White... no offense, but I... we've been together a long time.

    Mr. White : There aren't a lot of options here, Guy.

    Guy : Can he handle our tunes?

    Scott 'Wolfman' Pell : I think I can handle them, junior.

    [plays some bass killer licks] 

    Jimmy : Ok.

    Lenny : Ok.

    Guy : Fine.

  • Faye : But I thought you already decided on The Echoes.

    Jimmy : Nah, some band in Buffalo's the Echoes. And I wasn't wild about that.

    Lenny : Let's just call us The - Band You're About To Hear.

    Chad : How about The Corvettes?

    Jimmy : Is that The Corvettes, or the Chordvettes?

    Chad : No, Corvettes, like the car.

    Jimmy : Well see, I was thinking like the Chord...

    [writes Chordvettes] 

    Jimmy : *Chord*vettes, like chords in our music.

    Lenny : [Guy walks in]  Is that "Skitch" Patterson?

    Chad : Here he is, Erie's lone beatnik.

    The Bass Player : How about the Tempos? Ya know, tempos?

    Lenny : Not the Tempos, Tempos. I was in a band already called The Tempos, and we were... terrible.

    Chad : Hey Guy, weren't you the drummer for the Tempos?

    Guy : Heard that.

  • Lenny : Where was I? Oh yeah, playing songs on my guitar.

  • Jimmy : We were wondering if you'd like to fill in for Chad just for tonight.

    Guy : Why?

    Lenny : Asshole... just broke his arm!

    [starts laughing] 

  • Jimmy : [he's just written "Oneders"]  No, look - the Oneders, Lenny.

    Lenny : Yeah, it looks like the O'Needers.

    Jimmy : No, the - the Oneders.

    Lenny : Got it, looks like the O'Needers.

  • Phil Horace : I'm talking about Rock 'N' Roll shows in Steubenville, Youngstown, Pittsburgh, places like that.

    The Bass Player : Pittsburgh?

    Lenny : Steubenville?

  • Guy : What do you want, something like, uh

    [taps drumsticks] 

    Jimmy : Little slower

    Guy : One, two three, four...

    [taps drumsticks slower] 

    Jimmy : It's too fast

    Lenny : Yeah, oh yeah, whoa, whoa, ya, way too fast

    Jimmy : Slow down

    Lenny : Slow down

    Jimmy : Good

    Lenny : This is not a polka. This is rock and roll.

  • Lenny : Looks like Lenny's goin' fishing.

  • Jimmy : [Lenny taps his mic before their performance at the Orpheum]  Hey, hey! The mic's not on!

    Lenny Haise : [going backstage to Boss Vic Koss]  We - the mic's not working. The mic isn't working.

    Victor 'Boss Vic Koss' Kosslovich : All right, who am I not payin' back here? Come on!

    [turns on their mics, but the audience complains from the feedback] 

    Lenny Haise : [the mic feedback fades]  Thank you. Thank you. We're the Oneders.

    Victor 'Boss Vic Koss' Kosslovich : Will you play some friggin' music? C'mon!

    [Guy starts playing, but his crash cymbal crashes to the stage, and the audience laughs; he and Lenny right the cymbal again] 

    Victor 'Boss Vic Koss' Kosslovich : Right nowww!

  • Lenny : [as Jimmy runs to the bathroom to throw up]  Hey, man! Whatever you do, don't think of pork chops!
