Four archetypal figures from the "classic" rock and roll era - JET, the Rebel;
ANGEL, the Devil Woman, PAGLIACCI, the Clown Who Cried; and VELVET,
the Little Girl Blue; - fear that their best days are gone. Their music has lost
any rebellious potency it might once have had. The four take off in a small
plane, intent on crashing it on the site of the old Sydney Stadium and
perishing in the fashion of Buddy Holly, before they get old.
