Advantages: pure rock and roll Disadvantages: a bit dated by modern tastes
on speed" guitar riffs. It's straight four beats to the bar and packed with attitude. Also during this opening assault we get a blast of Monroe's saxophone playing in the briefest of solos. And this sets the pace for the show. "Back to Mystery City" and "Motorvatin'" continue in the same vein, an aggressive mix of Monroe's in your face vocal and Andy McCoy's razor guitar and all the time the relentless powerhouse delivery of the other three driving the show onwards towards meltdown.

Rock?n?Roll High School is a comedy/musical and is set in 1980 in a school in America. The main story is based around one of the pupils, Riff Randell. She is a very big rock?n?roll fan, especially music by The Ramones. Riff tries to bring music to the school and pupils by taking over the schools speaker system and playing Ramones music through it, and also by changing the music tapes in her gym class.
The new head teacher of the school is convinced that rock?n?roll music is bad for the pupils and that it rots their brains. She has conducted her own experiments on a mouse which we see exploding due to the ?rockability? of The Ramones music. I found the performance of the head teacher really annoying, she ...
