Hippie psychedelic band in the 1968 period movie Psych-Out (is hippiesploitation a word?).
Future big star Jack Nicholson in a phoneytail plays the band's leader and lead guitarist, Stoney. A self-absorbed heel, he makes it with a deaf chick in search of her brother in the movie's erstwhile plot. Nicholson says they want to be "famous like the Airplane" and play "The Ballroom." African American druggie drummer Elwood (Max Julien) and guitarist Ben (Adam Roarke) and uh, this other guy fill out the rest of the band. There's an oh-so-sixties scene where the band plays a complete Purple Haze rip off instrumental, (really "Asbury Wednesday" by The Boeznee Cryque) as trippy lights wash over the band and go-go booted dancers... uh... dance.
