从小热爱音(yin)乐，并最终成为(wei)一名职业巡演(yan)音乐人的吉(ji)米-泰斯(si)塔格罗斯（朗-埃达德饰），历经长达25年的时(shi)间，足迹遍(bian)布6大(da)洲，带领自(zi)己的音乐团队巡(xun)演几乎整个地(di)球，他的粉丝、歌迷(mi)已然有数(shu)百(bai)万之(zhi)多。如今，已然是中(zhong)年(nian)男人的吉米，终于在45岁(sui)这年决定回家(jia)，看望(wang)自己自20岁父亲去(qu)世(shi)那年便从未见过(guo)面的老母亲（罗(luo)伊丝-史密斯(si)饰），以及他离别多年的小镇和(he)少(shao)时的朋友们。
　　然而，经(jing)过(guo)多年的岁月洗礼，两(liang)鬓(bin)斑白的老母亲虽(sui)亲情依(yi)旧，但往日(ri)记忆里(li)的浓情(qing)小镇早已翻天覆地，尤(you)其是多年未(wei)谋面的发(fa)小、旧友甚至青(qing)梅竹(zhu)马(ma)却早已(yi)是为(wei)人夫妇(fu)、情(qing)随世(shi)迁。在历经一番怀旧、追忆、欢笑、误解甚至(zhi)打骂之(zhi)后，无情的岁月与(yu)世(shi)道之变迁，带给这位明星显赫(he)的老摇滚巨(ju)星的不仅(jin)仅是温(wen)馨满溢，更多的则(ze)是岁月无(wu)情和旧爱的逝去。但年(nian)迈(mai)的老母(mu)亲(qin)多年不变的母子(zi)亲情却依(yi)旧温暖如初，她收(shou)藏的爱(ai)子年(nian)少时便尽显(xian)音乐(le)才华时的旧(jiu)照片和简报(bao)，再次成为了中年吉米感恩亲情(qing)、相(xiang)信生活(huo)的动力所在……
　　For over 20 years, Jimmy Testagross has lived his childhood dream: being a roadie for his childhood heroes, Blue Oyster Cult. But the band's Arena-Rock glory days are a distant memory. County fairs and club gigs pay the bills. And Jimmy has become a casualty of these leaner times. With no place to go, no job prospects, and no real skills outside of being a roadie, Jimmy needs to regroup. So he returns to his childhood home in Queens, Ny. There, he revisits old relationships: his ailing, widower mom, a high school crush, a former nemesis and, most importantly, his relationship with himself. Jimmy, the middle-aged man-child, has never grown up. He still carries the resentments and frustrations of his youth, and has allowed them to fester and define who and what he is. Confronted with his mother's illness, Jimmy has a choice: let go of the past and take responsibility for both himself and the woman who raised and now needs him. Or continue to live a life of lies and frustration.
