Kevin Costner & Dirk the Bass Player
a tiny screenplay
by Kris Kimmel

KEVIN COSTNER
So, I got the name for the band.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
Sweet. Lay it on me.

KEVIN COSTNER
The Dave Matthews Band.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
That’s funny. Seriously, what’s the name?

KEVIN COSTNER
I just told you.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
Um, we can’t name our band The Dave Matthews Band.

KEVIN COSTNER
Why the heck not?

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
Because. There is already a band named The Dave Matthews Band.

KEVIN COSTNER
Hmmm, I don't know.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
No-I'm telling you, they exist.

KEVIN COSTNER
So I'll buy the name.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
I don’t think you understand. The Dave Matthews Band is very successful.

KEVIN COSTNER
Are they as big as Hootie and the Blowfish?

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
MUCH bigger.

KEVIN COSTNER
There's no way they touch Hootie’s sweet sound.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
I don’t even know how to respond to that.

KEVIN COSTNER
Man. I really loved that name.

Kevin holds his head in his hands.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
Here’s an idea. How about The Kevin Costner Band?

KEVIN COSTNER
C'mon. You can't name your band after yourself.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
Listen to this-there's a guy named Dave Matthews in The Dave Matthews Band.

KEVIN COSTNER
You’re lying.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
Google it!

KEVIN COSTNER
Do you think just because I'm Kevin Costner that I have a team of scientists at my disposal?

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
What? You have a computer right there. Ya know what, let’s just practice.

KEVIN COSTNER
What about The Allman Brothers? That's my alternate.

DIRK THE BASS PLAYER
Just please stop talking.
