They even have groupies, which they call the Chosen, and Phantom, the charismatic leader, has the girls lined up outside his motel door. But one fateful night in 1991, the after-party gets out of hand, and the band flees the scene when a girl is found floating facedown in the pool. They don't get far before their van crashes through a guardrail and over a cliff, exploding in a fiery crash. For years, no one knows if any of the four members survived.

And it’s not because they think that their children are moving too fast and identifying too closely with the “star-cross’d lovers,” Romeo and Juliet. CeCe and Elise were both at the last ill-fated concert of Phantom and The Riveters, they were both two of the Chosen, and Lance’s and Julie’s birthdays are only days apart . . .
