Keith is flying solo for this one - 90 minutes of Doo-wop is way too much to ask of Matt - as he takes a look at 1978's American Hot Wax featuring SNL's Laraine Newman in a supporting role.
The film is a semi-fictional look at a segment of the life of pioneer rock DJ Alan Freed as he promotes an upcoming rock concert in New York City. The kids are excited while the fogeys are less enamored by this immoral rock n' roll fad. What better place to talk about a movie that glorifies the devil's music than here... in SN Hell.
