This movie is probably about 10 years old and i dont remember much about it. I watched it 1 time on IFC, Showtime or some other movie station and like i said that was about 10 years ago, but here is what i remember...

-The movie was about a young rock band touring in their van late 90s -early 2000s
-The "hit" song they had was about a girl
-They eventually run into the girl one member of the band flirts or fools around with her which causes them or almost causes them to break up.
-The Singer Never faces the crowd while singing/ always with his back to them
-The last scene i believe is with them taking the stage at a festival/show in an auditorium
-Before they play the singer says "We're not supposed to be here/They didnt want us to play but We're going to play anyways" then he jumps up and tears down the banner.


If you can help find out the name of this movie I would greatly appreciate it.

-The "hit" song they had was about a girl
you might as well have said "the people in the band played instruments and sang stuff" since every song is about a girl
and the answer is either almost famous or that thing you do, if not then don't bother the movie isn't worth watching

garage days was the first thing that popped in my head as well.

but it's been so long since i watched it, and i don't remember the singer not facing the crowd.

i remember lots of drug use though and a mediocre movie.
