Michael Night's Journey

Michael Night is an aging professional student looking for a way out of a small town, and away from a loving girlfriend who increasingly wants more from him. And he’s also a Doors fan with ambition. But he doesn’t know how to act upon it, or even admit them to himself, until, inspired by friends who tell him he looks like Jim Morrison, and a chance meeting with Ray Manzarek he takes a chance on his dream and starts a Doors cover band.

He sidetracks a band on their road to fame, and together they experience the exhilaration of being a Rock n’ Roll band on tour, from the long hours, the agents, the travel, the groupies, record company executives and the growing ego of Michael Night, until they’re offered the gig of their Rock n’ Roll dreams.

On the road Michael meets and falls in love with Caitlin Stewart, daughter of legendary guitarist Jerry Osprey, but she doesn’t trust his motives, does he truly love her, or is she a career move for Michael? Or even a collectible?

They’re carried to the doors of stardom when the band plays in Los Angeles where Michael meets former child star Jimmy Stark who shows him the monster fame, celebrity and stardom can be, crashing studios and parties. Michael assembles an entourage of has-beens and wanna-be’s.

Then Michael Night and the band meet their destinies on the stage of the Whisky a-go-go! And when it’s all over Michael Night is afforded the last stage he has.
