Goofs
This film erroneously claims several times that Sweetwater opened the 1969 Woodstock Festival. In truth, Sweetwater was the second act on the bill, after actual opener Richie Havens, but they were the first band to play.

Quotes
Alex: [in his garage all these years later] You looking for a band?
Nancy Nevins: You looking for a singer?

Crazy credits
In the credits, 'Chris Hudson' is erroneously mentioned as an original producer of Sweetwater recordings. It was Chris Huston.

SWEETWATER RULES,AMY JO ROCKS

This is one of my all-time favorite movies.

I`m a huge AMY JO fan,as well as a huge SWEETWATER fan.

I could not believe when AMY JO had been chosen to play NANSI NEVINS. It was great to see her sing such songs as MOTHERLESS CHILD,IN A RAINBOW,WHAT`S WRONG? and TWO WORLDS.

For those who don`t know,AMY JO`s also a singer. She`s released an album called THE TRANS-AMERICAN TREATMENT,which is amazing.
