KAREN SIRKO (keyboardist, Daisy Jones & The Six): Testing. Testing.

WARREN ROJAS (drummer, Daisy Jones & The Six): Hello? We good?

ELIZABETH DUNNE (rhythm guitarist, Daisy Jones & The Six): This thing going?

GRAHAM DUNNE (lead guitarist, Daisy Jones & The Six): Just let me know when you're ready.

BILLY DUNNE (lead singer, Daisy Jones & The Six): Uh... How long is this going to take?

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

On October 4, 1977 Daisy Jones & The Six performed to a sold out crowd at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois.

They were one of the biggest bands in the world at the time, fresh off their award-winning, multi-platinum selling album "Aurora."

It would be their final performance.

In the 20 years since, members of the band and their inner circle have refused to speak on the record about what happened...

KAREN SIRKO: Okay.

WARREN ROJAS: Let's get this party started.

BILLY DUNNE: So Daisy also agreed to this?

Until now.

Lizzie heard the front door open, signalling the return of her older brother, Billy. He passed the groceries over to their mom, hugging her and gives a peck to her cheek, "Hey, mom."

She returns the hug, "He's still in the bedroom," taking the groceries from his arms.

"Don't bother!" Lizzie yells at him, not looking up from her copy of 'The Feminist Mystique', "I already tried, he wouldn't open the door."

Billy simply sighs, turning towards the staircase and beginning to climb it, "Any attempts worth something, right?"

Lizzie rolls her eyes, a gesture signifying a "Good luck" to him.

After a few minutes of no return of Billy, Lizzie slams down her book and stomps up the stairs, turning right into Graham's room, the door wide open.

"What the shit? You answer to him but not me?"

Graham points an accusatory finger at her, "I told you to leave me alone!"

"He's depressed over a girl, Liz."

She chuckles and shakes her head, sitting next to Billy on the end of Graham's bed. "She's a high school girlfriend. You won't even remember her in twenty years time, trust me."

"And what if I do?"

She puts a finger under her chin, making an exaggerated thinking face, "Well, let's hope you have a beautiful wife to make you forget all about her." She stands up and slaps him on the shoulder.

"Ow!"

WARREN ROJAS: (chuckles) It was Graham's idea to start a band.

BILLY DUNNE: Yeah, I never agreed to be in their band.

ELIZABETH DUNNE: I mean, he never even asked me (scoffs.) I get why you know? Billy's older, has more experience, all that shit. But, an invitation would've been nice.

INTERVIEWER: So, what did you do instead?

ELIZABETH DUNNE: I stayed and watched, just like Billy.
