It's the tail end of the big, bad 1980s in Hollywood, and Narrator Lonny (Grady) says the party has been raging hard. Aqua Net, Lycra, lace and liquor flow freely at one of the Sunset Strip's last legendary venues, the Bourbon Room. Owned by Dennis Dupree (Johnson) it's a place where aging rocker Stacee Jaxx (Jackett) takes the stage and groupies line up to turn their fantasies into reality. Amidst the madness, aspiring rock star and barback, Drew (Moser) longs to take the stage as the next big thing and pines for small-town girl Sherri, (O'Conor and Schonning in a spilt role) fresh off the bus from Kansas with stars in her eyes. But the rock and roll fairy-tale is about to end when German developers (MacIsaac and Dexter) sweep into town with plans to turn the fabled Strip into just another capitalist strip mall. Can Drew, Sherrie and the gang save the strip-and themselves-before it's too late?
