Prog Band Bio that Would Make a Good Film

After having recently seen Oliver Stone’s “The Doors,” I was wondering which prog rock band’s story would make a good movie.

I was thinking maybe Rush:

Plot Synopsis: Film opens with Rush playing rural lumberjack bars in Canada. Geddy is singing his heart out on a cover of “The Immigrant Song” but drunk frothing lumberjacks are mocking his high voice and throwing beer on him and the others. One lumberjack even steals away Geddy’s tipsy girlfriend and has his way with her.

By film’s end though, Rush has released “Caress of Steel” and is playing larger venues. In farewell hometown gig, Geddy wins over his lumberjack enemies, who are now complete Rush fans. In a final victory, Geddy steals away the lead lumberjack’s buxom girlfriend and whisks her away to a sold-out London gig where they’re opening for Foghat.

Or maybe Gong:

Plot Synopsis: Film opens with crash pad squalor of Gong rural home. Hillage is becoming increasingly bitter as his school buddies are selling out and making it big in the French rock band circuit. Pyle and Moerlen et al. can no longer convice him that troubador lifestyle devoted to making music is worth it. In film’s moment of crisis he finally convinces them to sell some of their hits to Airbus for several hundred dollars.

However, just before signing contract, the band runs across two German women backpacking across Europe who, upon hearing what the band is about to do, burst into tears and confess that it is Gong and their committment to community and holistic living that has saved them from a life of depravity making money on webcams. Profoundly moved, Hillage and the others have a change of heart and return to the rural crash pad (but in final plot twist, they manipulate the Germans into cleaning it for free.)

Does anyone have any other ideas? Don’t forget to include plot synopsis!
