WARREN: A lot of people live through heart attacks. So when I found out, I thought... I didn't immediately realise that meant he was dead.
BILLY: Gone.
GRAHAM: Teddy Price isn't the kind of guy you think is going to die of a heart attack. Well, I mean, he ate like shit and drank a lot and didn't take great care of himself but ... He just seemed too ... powerful, maybe. Like if a heart attack came to town he was going to tell it to screw off and it would.
DAISY: When Teddy died, that was it. I'd decided there was no sense in getting sober. I rationalized it. You know, If the universe wanted me to get clean, it wouldn't have killed Teddy. You can justify anything. If you're narcissistic enough to believe that the universe conspires for and against you — which we all are, deep down —then you can convince yourself you're getting signs about anything and everything.
BILLY: It took the wind out of me. My first thought was, where can I get alcohol?
DAPHNE: I don't think I understood the impact Teddy had on my life until he was gone. Until I realised he wasn't here anymore, that he couldn't listen to another record with me, that he could never get back in a booth with me, that he was never going to see me do what we'd imagined when I was so young.
ROD: I got them all home to LA for the funeral, had to reschedule a couple shows. I knew it was important to them. I got it all worked out with Daphne's new team.
DAPHNE: I went silent, I didn't talk to anyone but Daisy. Billy and I were suddenly avoiding eachother like the plague.
We weren't quite sure how tour was going to work from this point, nobody had a clear answer of when we were getting aback out there so Rod had put us all up at the Marmont for a couple days around the funeral.
I think the general idea was that it would be better for all of us to stay occupied. I agreed, but I appreciated that sliver of time away.
When we touched down, Camila and Julia were waiting at the airport. I can't remember a time till that point that Billy and I had been apart the way we were, absolute minimal contact. I greeted Camila though, and Julia had ran into my arms.
I felt guilty anytime that little girl looked at me, and I never felt guilt when I was young. I thought I was above it.
I remember Camila holding me tight, brushing the hair out of my face. As if Teddy's death hadn't shattered my heart, seeing Camila for the first time in such a long period made me sick.
She was good. Camila was a good person. She was kind, she was loyal.
I couldn't fathom why out of all the people in the world I could fall for, why it had to be Billy Dunne? Why did he have to be the person I loved when Camila was in the picture?
BILLY: I sat at the hotel bar for a while, it was pretty late. Near midnight. I'd ordered a drink, and yet I sat there staring at it blankly. I ended up passing it down the bar to another, grabbed my keys and drove to Runner Records.
