It they ever film the Pat Benatar story, you can bet that a likely title is Catch A Rising Star.

We cut in on the story as young Pat. Brooklyn born and Lindenhurst. Long Island raised, is living in Richmond. Virginia, singing in (her own words) "a lounge hand."

"I just decided one day that it was, like, a ridiculous situation. The quy that led the band was twin' to take over Richmond and be a big fish in the little ocean kinda thing. It just got so ridiculous tor me that I decided I'd just leave, and if I was gonna sing...well, it was the deciding point of whether or not to do it forever, and just try to go to New York and try to break in there. So my old man and I just packed up our shit and left.
