Synopsis

A down-on-it's-luck Long Island, NY rock band kidnaps it's hero, washed up British rocker Spazz-o, so that he will listen to its demo tape and produce its album. However, not only does no one care that Spazz-O is missing, but his sleazy manager and porn star wife have hired a hit man to kill him anyway. Things get more whacky as an inept detective, a terrorist group and a record executive with a new lucrative deal for Spazz-O, all join in the hunt for the missing rocker.
