(1999)

Submitted by Tornado Dragon

Hawk (Edward Furlong), Jam (Sam Huntington), Lex (Giuseppe Andrews), and Trip (James DeBello) make it to the WURP radio station in Detroit to pick up the front-row Kiss tickets and backstage passes Trip earlier won in a call-in contest, but they find out that Trip didn’t stay on the line to give his information to the station, forcing them to give the prizes to the next caller. After they exit the building, they discover that Lex’s mother’s Volvo has been stolen, and they believe that Christine (Natasha Lyonne), a disco girl they picked up along the way and who passed out from some marijuana they were smoking, had awoken while they were in the building and jacked the car.

With an hour and 45 minutes to spare before show time, Hawk tells them that he will go barter with a scalper and that they each must find their own way to get a ticket, and they have the next hour and a half to get them before they reconvene at a nearby intersection 15 minutes before the concert starts:

When the quartet come together at the intersection and report their failures, Jam suggests that they beat the snot out of each other, then go to the ticket taker at Cobo Hall’s main doors and claim that they got mugged for their tickets. Seeing no other alternatives, the others agree to this plan, so they beat each other bloody and then walk up to the ticket taker and state their bogus claim. Predictably, it is met with skepticism, but then Trip spots Chongo, his little brother, and their friends inside and yells that they are the muggers. The ticket taker has security seize them, and Trip informs the security guards that they even stole his wallet, which contains his Kiss Army picture I.D. card and $150 cash. Sure enough, the guards find the wallet and the items inside, so Chongo and his crew are taken away and their tickets are given to the quartet.

The four friends go inside and enjoy the show, which starts off with Kiss (themselves) singing “Detroit Rock City” and Jam catching a drumstick Peter Criss throws into the audience.
