A high-energy, irreverent 1980s comedy romp centered on a chaotic New Year's Eve rock concert, driven by slapstick humor, romance subplots, and the anarchic spirit of rock and roll.

Mega-promoter Colin Beverly plans to sabotage the New Year's 1983 concert of small-time operator Max Wolfe. Wolfe's assistants Neil Allen and Willie Loman find romance while trying to save the drugs, violence, and rock and roll from Beverly's schemes.
