Who are the metal 'scumbags' we see on TV shortly


After Greta dies, Alice stays with this skater guy. In his room the TV is on and there's some conservative politician shouting at a metal band whom he calls "scumbags". who is the band and is that scene real or was it shot for the movie?

I'm not sure, but I THOUGHT it was Dokken's band but I could be wrong.

Just because we lose today's battle doesn't mean we've lost tommorow's war.

I don't thnk it was a real band. I saw in the credits that it was Ted Nugent and Eric Singer along with two other guys, that I've never heard of.

Ted Nugent...now THERE'S somebody I'd love to see diced to pieces in an Elm Street movie.

I'm pretty sure it's Skid Row

Ted Nugent, Eric Singer, Rudy Sarzo and Ron Armstrong. Credited as 'Hot Seat Band'
I originally thought it was Megadeth till I saw the credits.

They are credited as "The Hot Seat Band" because the show is called "The Hot Seat with Wally George" and i would totally recommend watching episodes on youtube

Hahaha Ted Nugent?!, who knew he would be aligned with the very type of person putting him down in that clip
