Trivia
The Lone Rangers' hit single "Degenerated" is actually a song by 1980s punk group Reagan Youth.

Goofs
When Rex suggests that the tape should be played on the air, Chazz replies it can't be done because the mixing console is busted. All radio stations, especially high profile ones (and even regional ones) have more than one broadcast booth, in most cases two (some with a third as a backup), so it would just be a matter of switching booths.

Quotes
[Chazz and Rex are testing Chris]
Chazz: Who'd win in a wrestling match, Lemmy or God?
Chris Moore: Lemmy.
[Rex imitates a game show buzzer]
Chris Moore: ... God?
Rex: Wrong, dickhead, trick question. Lemmy *IS* God.

Alternate versions
Aside from editing some language, the TV version changes one of the last scenes: when Rex is pelvic-thrusting and Chazz gestures "no no no", instead of a shot of a pair of prisoners grinning laciviously, the TV edit uses a shot of two prisoners staring confused at Rex.

I ain't farting on no snare drum.

For years everyone told me that Brendan Fraser movies were bad and this movie proves they all lied.Weirdly,people always say that Adam Sandler movies are always great yet this is the only one that really is,and Sandler has a tiny part.This movie is just awesome.It's funny and has a great story with lots of cameos,Lemmy,Kramer,Stuttering John,Chris Farley and tons more.The one thing that doesn't really make sense is that it's a decade late and no one ever noticed.They are a very 1984 band in a 1994 movie.Hair metal was long dead by 1994,MTV was playing Rancid,not Winger.If you're into those terrible Sandler movies where he crams in all his friends and nothing funny ever happens,you might not like this movie but you will see why he keeps making work for Steve Buscemi.This is one of the best movies ever.
