Contest:
2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
-
From the early 80’s cult film, “Get Crazy” we have a series of bands who played at the fictitious Saturn Theatre (modeled after the famous Filmore East) for their 15th New Year’s Eve Show. The main event of the night was Reggie Wanker (Malcolm McDowell) who was Rock and Roll excess all the way, with his over the top stage persona, drug and alcohol consumption and love of women. His pairing with his Drummer, Toad (played by John Densmore of the Doors) also led to some nice comedic work; but what else would we expect from McDowell?

Why you should not vote::
Does headlining a concert in a film that hardly anyone saw make him a realistic contender?
