Plot: Noted record producer and musician Glen Ballard (who has collaborated with Alanis Morissette, Dave Matthews Band, No Doubt, and Aerosmith) wrote this drama which offers an insider's look at the long, hard road to the top of the music business. Kennedy (Jimmy Tuckett) is the frontman of a struggling rock & roll band who have come to Los Angeles in hopes of making it big. Kennedy's brother, King (Brad Hunt), is the band's manager, but while the group works hard, they have little to show for it, and King seems to alienate more industry bigwigs than he's won over. The members of the band are also having a hard time keeping body and soul together; they not only have to work day jobs to support themselves, but to pay clubowners, who often charge musicians for the privilege of playing a well-known venue. Mondo (Rodney Eastman), the drummer, brings even more problems into the picture when he starts dealing hard drugs to earn money. Finally, the band attracts the attention of a powerful and well-known record producer, but there's a catch -- he's only interested in Kennedy, and wants him to ditch the rest of his band. Clubland also stars Lori Petty, Heather Stephens, and Scot James; the film also features cameo appearances from Steven Tyler of Aerosmith and Terence Trent D'Arby. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Beware of Misleading
Added 5/11/2008

Titled in Australia "Clubland", "Introducing the Dwights" misled me into purchasing surely.

Eventually, "Introducing the Dwights" is a story of generational exchange as following a then-young-lovely-joking husband, an England's cabaret artist came Down Under just to divorce and grow up two sons, a semi-spastic younger and baby-faced twenty-year-old truckie shy and knowing nothing in bedroom activities his girlfriend pushed persistently him in.

Perhaps, produced in a last year of a Howard era, this comedy is a copy-cat of the "family values" movies of the fifties (Tim, for instance), during a last decade Australia had artificially been pressed in, as explicit sex scenes resulted in a happy wedding finally, where a same gender couple dances joyfully.

CLUBLAND IN A GREAT CLUB!

What a movie! Rarely do we see in motion pictures such raw and honest reality as we do in CLUBLAND. This sexy film about stardom and the difficult choices that come with it, explores the morality and consequences of a rock star life, and the sacrifices it takes to get there. You will not be disappointed by this very worthy film from the producer of THELMA AND LOUISE. As well, a fascinating and moving soundtrack complements the film.

Clubland is a great movie. I bought it the day after I saw it and would recommend it to everyone! A bonus to an already good movie is that the one and only Steven Tyler of Aerosmith makes an appearance!!
