My favourite scene from a movie ever

I love this movie. I love this song. I wish I was on the bus.

I used to dream about director Cameron Crowe's life experience that the movie was based on. At the young age of 16, he became a journalist for Rolling Stone magazine. He got to tour with and/or interview 1970s rock legends such as the Yes, Zeppelin, the Eagles, Allman Brothers, Bob Dylan, Bowie, Neil Young, Eric Clapton.  The list goes on.

This scene just gets me.

And while we're on the subject. Dave Grohl was just as inspired by that scene as I was. His cover of the song on the "The Late Late Show with Craig Kilburn" is one of my fave covers too. I wish I was in the audience.
