butterisbad-1 I have been looking for this movie - I had a VHS of it and lost it. I love the songs, and it makes me all misty-eyed. Seeing that it came out in the 80's when everyone I know wanted to be in a band, and it features just a regular bunch of teens trying to make it. I have always wanted the songs played by the bands "Magic" and "Surgical Steel". I have often wondered if the actors actually performed the songs themselves. I first saw the film on late night television in 1989, and every Internet search I have made for the film have come up empty. Clancy Brown is great as the roadie, and he shows the talent that has made him one of the best character actors today. Leif Garret even appears as a swam rocker-wannabe who will step on anyone to get to the top.

triple8 POTENTIAL MINER SPOILERS:Anyone in a band, friend of a band member, or just a rock music fan would probebly like this movie about a bunch of boys getting into a band and the truimphs and TRAGEDIES that go along with that. Saw it a long time ago, just happened to find it at the video store, wasn't expecting much and was pleasantly surprised. This isn't a very well known movie but it still ROCKED!! Be warned though, it's not all sweetness and light, there's some heartbreak etc, after all they do get mixed up in some dark living. A good movie for music lovers if one can still find it.

Paden33 I've seen this movie several times and enjoy it each time. It is not so much as the movie as it is the soundtrack, and from what I can tell this soundtrack has never been made avaliable for public release if you view the credits.
