Wayne's World 2
Wayne's World 2 is a 1993 American comedy film directed by Stephen Surjik and starring Mike Myers and Dana Carvey as hosts of a public-access television cable television show in Aurora, Illinois. The film is the sequel to Wayne's World (1992), which was itself adapted from a sketch on NBC's Saturday Night Live.
Plot
Rock and roll fans Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar now host their public-access television show, Wayne's World, from an abandoned doll factory and Wayne's new home in Aurora, Illinois. Wayne, Garth and two of their co-workers attend an Aerosmith concert, with Wayne and Garth having backstage passes. They meet up with Wayne's girlfriend Cassandra (lead singer and bassist of the band Crucial Taunt) and are introduced to her new producer, Bobby Cahn; the duo is then denied further access backstage in spite of having passes. That night, Wayne has a dream in which he meets Jim Morrison and a "weird naked Indian" in a desert. Morrison convinces Wayne that his destiny is to organize a major music festival. Wayne and Garth dub the concert "Waynestock" (a pun on "Woodstock") and hire a former roadie, Del Preston. Their early attempts to sign bands (Aerosmith, Pearl Jam, and Van Halen are mentioned off the cuff by Wayne) and sell tickets fail, and Wayne wonders if the endeavor is futile.
