03:28Welcome to Brewsville, son.
03:30He's looking for a lost song and he needs him to find it.
03:34He's looking for a place from his past and he needs him to get there.
03:38Who about the blues man?
03:39Yeah, I'm the blues man.
03:41He's from Long Island.
03:42Ralph Macchio and Joe Seneca are heading for the place where deals are made.
03:46At the crossroads.
03:48Then, make your summer escape to the islands.
03:50I say let's go.
03:51Alright, we're going.
03:52Where Robin Williams plays host to a zany cast of beachcombers.
03:56Club Paradise, where civilization ends.
03:58I'm on the case.
03:59Take a trip back home with Sissy Spacek and Kevin Kline.
04:02It's a place she never forgot.
04:04A summer that never ended.
04:06A feeling that never died.
04:08Do you think we would have gotten married if I thought you were coming back?
04:10It's not home to me anymore.
04:12A place where the violets are blue.
04:14And in a different hometown, danger and violence are a way of life.
04:18Hey, family gun, Dad.
04:20Sean Penn and Christopher Walken are living on the wire in a dead-end town.
04:24I love you.
04:26What? Is that what you want to hear?
04:28At close range.
04:29Then stop for the night at...
04:32It's Motel.
04:34Norman is back and so is his mother.
04:36Norman, is that you?
04:38Yes, mother.
04:40It's me.
04:41Don't miss the fight for your life.
04:43Mother!
04:45Psycho Dream.
04:46And reach your final destination with Tom Hanks in a comedy.
04:49He's good.
04:50And I wear bikini briefs.

05:01Then run right into September when Robert Redford takes off in Legal Eagles.
05:07Jeff Goldblum takes a beating in The Fly.
05:09And HBO Pictures presents Danny Glover in Mandela.
05:13I'm giving you all the magic I've gotten.
05:16You will find all the magic in August right here on HBO.
05:45To be continued...
05:59Hey, if you cats thought you saw the real Billy Crystal
06:02in his on-location special, Don't Get Me Started,
06:05wait till you see his lost minutes.
06:07Outrageous outtakes, babe.
06:08Next, and I mean that.
06:14They're cops.
06:15Right, what do you think?
06:16We all wear uniforms, we all drive around in cars that say police on them.
06:20They're best friends.
06:22I can't believe that you missed all six shots.
06:24What are you talking about? I hit the windshield six times in a row.
06:27They're funny.
06:27She's gonna die for this.
06:29Ooh, I can feel the tension in here.
06:31But when this desperado takes his ex-wife hostage,
06:35they're fantastic.
06:37Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines.
06:40Running Scared, Tuesday on HBO.
06:43I never told anybody I was a Vietnam veteran until 1977.
06:49Each vet has their own story.
06:52They came back so hurting, so confused, so in need of so much.
06:59One guy told me that the one words,
07:01the words that we always are looking for and we never hear,
07:04is welcome home.
07:06On July 4th, a major concert event took place.
07:10A welcome home tribute to our nation's Vietnam veterans.
07:17Actors John Boyk, John Ritter, and Peter Fonda hosted the HBO event
07:22with the stage to raise funds for Vietnam veteran organizations across the country.
07:26Our organizations are vet centers that are closing like mad,
07:29and we're in desperate need of just the real nuts and bolts stuff.
07:32Wheelchairs, new wheelchairs, braille printers, computer terminals, things like that.
07:39Performers rehearsed for two days as veterans traveled to Landover, Maryland
07:43for this reunion of words and music,
07:45a recognition many felt was long overdue.
07:48I don't think it's ever been too late.
07:50It's nice.
07:51It could have been nicer a few years back,
07:52but it's nice coming now.
08:07As the concert got underway,
08:09it was readily apparent that it was not too late to say,
08:12welcome home.
08:13To all the Vietnam veterans,
08:16I've come with the same to you.
08:20Everybody,
08:21We are here
08:23To say
08:26I love you
08:28Performers took the stage,
08:30many of whose works spanned the Vietnam era,
08:32each with their own special message for the Vietnam vets.
08:36I live in America
08:38Say it!
08:41Everybody say it!
08:42Say it!
08:43I live in America
08:46Vietnam!
08:47Vietnam veterans themselves were included in this outstanding group of performances.
08:52But in Vietnam, in combat,
08:53printed on the hand grenades,
08:55it said,
08:56Pull pin,
08:58throw away.
09:01Like some guy's gonna go,
09:04Oh, hell, I'll keep this right here, huh?
09:05One of the most moving moments of the concert
09:08was when one veteran,
09:09a victim of Agent Orange Poison,
09:11performed his song,
09:12Hurting More.
09:13Now my second baby
09:16was born to me
09:17My
09:19Zachary
09:20my boy baby
09:23With twisted legs
09:25and broken sight
09:27His struggle goes on
09:30this very night
09:33I don't get any testing
09:34or treatment
09:35or compensation
09:36for my Agent Orange Poisoning.
09:38One thing I would like to see happen
09:39out of this event
09:40is to have people call that 1-800 number.
09:43HBO put out
09:44one and a quarter million dollars for this.
09:47I mean,
09:47they put their money
09:48where their mouth is.
09:49And it's a beautiful event.
09:52The 800 number
09:54shown throughout the concert
09:55will remain open
09:56as long as contributions
09:57continue to come in.
09:59HBO will also air highlights
10:01of the concert
10:01in two parts
10:02throughout the month.
10:04The vets that
10:04who had sacrificed a great deal
10:07and were very brave
10:08regardless of whether
10:09they should have been there or not.
10:10They were sent there
10:11and they didn't have much
10:12to say about it.
10:23Music
10:24is the universal language.
10:28It's a healing agent
10:30and there's power in music.
10:35If it's the right notes
10:36at the right time
10:37it can move right through you
10:38to do some devastating things.
10:40Just like open sesame.
10:42You know,
10:43the magic would happen.
10:46Some folks of all
10:47made to wear the black
10:49that red rock and blue

16:24As only we know it
16:26What?
