#1 Hard rock has always had a core audience that sustains it through times when the mainstream is occupied elsewhere. The period at the tail end of the 1970s was one of these troughs in popularity for the genre.

#2 The Starwood was a club in Hollywood that was frequented by rock stars. It was a completely different vibe than the Hot 100 Club, which was upstairs. The behind-the-scenes stories were wild, and drugs were rampant.

#3 Van Halen were an oddity in the music scene in Los Angeles. They were a house band at the Starwood, but their clientele was mostly college kids.

#4 The Boyz were a local Los Angeles band that were struggling to get noticed. They were similar to Van Halen in their bombastic attitude and lack of refinement. They would often play shows with Van Halen.
