Mike Holliday has a life that many would dream of. He’s married to a rock star and his rock star wife is expecting their first child. Mike also has quite the fascinating job -
he’s a network TV late-night talk show host!
By nature of his job, Mikey reluctantly lives his life in the public eye. He's always had the performing bug, yet he's seen the toll a life in the public eye has had on his own family. He's seen the damage the rock and roll lifestyle had on his own Dad.
During the recording of his show one evening, Mike gets news that his mother has finally lost her several decade-long battle with cancer. While Mike hadn't had a great relationship with his mother for many years, this news is enough to rock any seasoned performer to his core. And after Mike gets the news, has a public moment of grief on network television.
When Mike and his wife go back to Mike’s small Alabama hometown for his Mom's funeral, he sees the state that his father is in. Depressed and drunk, Jimmy Holliday is a far cry from the influential master of the electric guitar that he once was. While his Dad was rarely present in Mikey's life, he believes Jimmy's greatness isn't dead.
There is still something left in the tank!
