ABSTRACT:
The game contains a board with multiple spaces on which a concert platform playing piece moves for each player from a start box to a final stage. Each space contains instructions which may include selecting a rescue or challenge card. The rescue cards provide a means for escaping precarious predicaments and the challenge cards may ask questions which if answered correctly provides a bonus and if answered incorrectly a monetary penalty. A pair of dice determines the number of spaces moved during each player's turn. Each player can obtain band members to be inserted on their playing piece. Such band members are worth $50,000 each at the conclusion of the game when each player arrives at the final stage. The player who accumulates the most money is declared the winner.
