Being famous is another. When Owen Noone turns up at an open-mic evening in a Peoria, Illinois bar, he not only brings the house down, he also changes the life of one shy, introspective student. Together they become Owen Noone and the Marauder, a rock 'n' roll band that rises to fame on the back of an improbable hit single - a folk-meets-punk rendition of 'Yankee Doodle'.
