Where To Watch
Can you match rock stars to the movies they starred in?
Which groups appeared in Hold On, Head, Flame and more?
You know you've made it as a rock band when an entire movie is based around your music. You're even cooler when you get to star in the movie yourself. (Although, admittedly, sometimes the acting is better left to the professionals.)
We've gathered a dozen of our favorite rock movies from the Fifties through the Eighties. We'll even show you a fragment of the movie poster.
Can you match these movies to the correct musicians?

Slade made a comback in the early 80s with "Run Runaway."
LOVED that song as a teen! Thanks for the memory. 😀
10/12
12 for 12. Easy as pie.
10/12 and im only 12 years old!
Seems like most people missed #12, including me. Got the rest though. I've heard of those 3 bands, but really don't know their music. Was little kid in the 70s....
