Quotes 

• Andy Travis : We need a band that's going to go along with our rock 'n' roll format.

  Steve Pievy : I do have one act. They must be a rock 'n' roll band. Their name's... Scum of the Earth.

  Andy Travis : [excited]  You book Scum?

  Steve Pievy : Not as a rule.

• [the three members of Scum of the Earth have entered the dressing room, where Andy, Johnny and Venus are waiting for them] 

  Blood : I suppose you've heard that the three of us have decided that we're not going on this evening.

  Andy Travis : [standing up to join Venus in solidarity]  Right. The three of us have decided that the three of you *are* going on this evening.

  [everyone looks at Johnny, who is seated by himself on the other side of the room] 

  Dr. Johnny Fever : [shrugging while he takes off his sunglasses]  Rock 'n' roll.

  [Johnny stands up to join Andy and Venus to make it a three against three standoff] 

• Les Nessman : [in a concerned tone]  Were you listening to Johnny as you drove in this morning?

  Andy Travis : Sure.

  Les Nessman : Well, he's doing bogus news reports, Andy. It's very dangerous, you know.

  Andy Travis : Well, like what?

  Les Nessman : Well, he's telling the listeners there's this thing called the Cincinnati Triangle, just like the Bermuda Triangle, except it runs from Cincinnati, up to Dayton, over to Columbus and back. And he's reporting that things have begun to disappear from the Cincinnati Triangle.

  Jennifer Marlowe : What kind of things?

  Les Nessman : Well, so far, two recreational vehicles, and Woody Hayes.

  Andy Travis : Les, I don't think anyone in their right mind would believe that when it's said. It's a joke.

  Les Nessman : [timidly]  Oh. Is it funny?

  Andy Travis : I think it's funny. Jennifer?

  Jennifer Marlowe : Yeah, so do I.

  Les Nessman : [emitting a made up laugh]  Well, I see. Darn Johnny. What a card.

• Venus Flytrap : Believe me, man, those dudes are vicious, they're dangerous, and they're out of control.

  Andy Travis : Where are they now?

  Venus Flytrap : Having tea in the control room.
