Short story:

Would-be singer Robert Wace and his friend-manager Grenville Collins drop in on a rehearsal of The Boll-Weevils at the Athenaeum Ballroom in Muswell Hill, London, England, UK, Europe. Seeing potential in the Boll-Weevils as a backing band for Wace, he and Collins repair to the Clissold Arms with the band to discuss the possibilities. The band, formed by brothers Ray and Dave Davies, will however eventually become The Kinks, managed by Wace and Collins.
