Nicolas has been dreaming of becoming a rock star ever since he was a boy in his home country of Italy. Nico's last band just broke up last month due to the constant fighting between the singer & the bassist. Still Nico is dedicated to his craft & practices regularly.

He has a weekly gig at the Viper Pit on Sunset Strip...every Weds. at 11pm he sings heavy metal favorites to crowds of mid week partiers looking to relive the glory days of the L.A. rock scene.

"Here I am, rock you like a hurricane".......Nico loves the rush of performing before an appreciative audience, but what he wants is to perform his own material...this cover stuff is only for now, until he can get a new band going. (karaoke stage by Parsimonious)

Singing cover tunes on Weds night doesn't pay nearly enough to afford the ridiculously high rents in Hollywood...Nico supplements his income as a busker (street musician). Since that also is not a very lucrative endeavor, Nico also sometimes hangs around Beverly Hills cafes, looking to meet older, wealthy married women, who often give him presents & money in return for the company of the sexy young Italian. Today, however he attracts the attention of a wholly different kind of woman...as young & sexy as himself, but famous as well as rich....She is Jackie Oh!, the singer & bassist of "F Hole", a local band who just got signed to BMC & has rocked the charts with their mega hit cover of the Dead Kennedys' "California Uber Alles". Before F Hole got a contract, Nico's former band had played a few gigs with them. He hadn't spoken more than a few words to Jackie, but she remembers him. She tells him she thought he was a badass guitarist.

Jackie hasn't been a star for very long, but she has already become accustomed to ordering people around: she tells Nico to come shopping with her, so she can 'catch up' with him. Well, he's not going to say no, is he? The women he usually ends up going shopping with are never as hot as Jackie, and never are of any use to his musical ambitions.

Nico suddenly remembers his home in Italy & his Mamma & he wonders if he is dreaming.....the biggest thing on MTV is standing in front of him in her lingerie, asking him how it looks.
