A hilarious film following the lives and antics of a fictional British rock group touring the USA. Along for the ride is a documentary film maker out to capture all the chaos that unfolds. The film manages to perfectly lampoon yet also show some love for the rock industry. The film is a fun and classic case of a clash of egos as the constant rivalries within the band and their declining popularity threaten to spell disaster. The costumes and make up for the film are brilliant, as is the script. Certain lines of dialogue have become iconic including one character unable to get his head around the fact that having a dial that goes up to 11 doesn't necessarily make it any louder than another similar one.
