The band's perfectly mediocre pop (written and laid down by real musicians) accompanies a story that's both dramatic and hilarious.

Rollickingly good movie about the challenges of keeping a band together on the road.

"It Couldn't Be Ann" is one of the most underrated songs of the 90's. From the lead singer who always performs with his back to audience, to the manager who reads 90% of the film dispensing helpful kernals of wisdom when in need, to the bus breakdown...(read more) s and band relationship break-ups, theres everything

A great movie, capturing the real possible struggles of a band just trying to get a name out. The music in the was superb. Sadly, not many of the actors led a successful career after this.
