    • Trivia
      Malcolm McDowell didn't read the whole script when he accepted the role. When he arrived for filming, he was shocked when another actor asked him how he planned to play the conversation with his penis.
    • Goofs
      When Auden walks straight out into the street, one car barely misses him and two more (blue car and the same orange car that Nada and her band arrive at the theatre in) skid to one side and almost crash. In the next shot, the blue car is still there, but the orange car (which should have been blocked in by the blue car) is gone.
    • Quotes

      King Blues: Hey, Cool. Is it the reefer, or is someone else singing one of my songs?

      Captain Cloud: Well, the song is the same, but... different!

    This should be a classic but no one has seen it.
    This is one of the most under viewed movies I can think of. If you have a sense of humor about musicians and their lifestyles, this is a great watch. I recommend this as the second feature on a double bill with 'This is Spinal Tap'. This movie is funnier than many 'A' list comedies and should have a larger fan base. Check it out.
