Roadie Directed by Alan Rudolph Screenplay by Big Boy Medlin Michael Ventura Story by Big Boy Medlin Michael Ventura Zalman King Alan Rudolph Produced by Carolyn Pfeiffer Zalman King (executive producer) John E. Pommer (associate producer) Starring Meat Loaf Kaki Hunter Art Carney Alice Cooper Blondie Roy Orbison Hank Williams Jr. Cinematography David Myers Edited by Tom Walls Production companies Alive Enterprises Vivant Productions Distributed by United Artists Release date June 13, 1980 Running time 105 minutes Budget $4.7 million Box office $4,226,370 Plot Travis W. Redfish is a beer-drinking, bar-brawling, fun-loving Texan, who works as a distributor of Shiner beer. He also helps his father, Corpus C. Redfish with the family salvage company, whose motto is “Everything will work if you let it!” B.B. Muldoon is his best friend and business partner, and the romantic interest of Travis' younger sister Alice Poo. While B.B. and Travis are making deliveries in their Shiner beer truck, they notice an RV that has broken down on the side of the road. At first, they laugh at the thought of helping the stranded motorists, but then Travis sees wannabee groupie Lola Bouillabaisse smile at him through the rear window of the RV. Travis slams on the brakes and decides to help, hoping to get a closer look at Lola. Lola is a huge fan of Alice Cooper and Travis has never heard of “her”. Road manager Ace wants Travis to drive them to Austin for a show to be played by Hank Williams Jr., produced by music mogul Mohammed Johnson. After repairing the RV, Travis lets Lola talk him into driving to Austin, where his ability to set up equipment in record time impresses Johnson, who demands that he work additional shows. Despite his own loathing for Travis, Ace forces Lola to persuade the unwilling Travis to continue working as their roadie, so Ace can get the credit for his work. Lola takes advantage of Travis' dazed state after a bar fight to get him to drive the group to the airport (eluding a police pursuit on the way) for a flight to Hollywood. Travis is angry and homesick when he wakes up and finds himself in Hollywood, but relents when Lola cries. He saves one show by physically threatening the band into playing and, when a Blondie concert is nearly cancelled due to authorities' refusal to provide power, builds a DIY electrical generator that runs on cow dung, gaining him national publicity as the “greatest roadie that ever lived” due to his unusual techniques for fixing equipment. Along the way he clumsily tries to seduce Lola, with whom he has fallen in love, but she rejects his overtures, explaining that she is only 16 and a virgin and is saving her “first time” for Alice Cooper, although she continues to flirt with other musicians whenever she has a chance. But Lola reveals her true feelings for Travis by getting jealous when he spends an evening with Debby Harry. Lola and Travis argue, causing him to take her immediately to Alice Cooper's show in New York City, where he plans to leave her so she can fulfill her groupie dreams while Travis goes home to Texas. However, Alice has heard of Travis' reputation and convinces him to stay long enough to fix the problems with Alice's sound system. In return for Travis' services, Alice buys him a bus to drive himself back to Texas and gives Lola VIP treatment, with a front row seat, backstage access, and the promise of a romantic evening. Travis finds out that B.B. and Alice Poo are getting married and is determined to return to Texas for their wedding. Despite Lola's pleading that he stay, Travis leaves her in New York, telling her to pursue her dream as she probably won't get another chance with Alice Cooper. Travis gets home just in time to see his best friend and sister exchange vows. He then gets a phone call from Lola, who has given up being a groupie and traveled to Texas to be with him, and is waiting at a nearby bus stop. Lola now plans to be a psychic instead. As Travis and Lola start to consummate their relationship in the parked bus, they are interrupted by a UFO suddenly landing in front of them, and Lola uses her psychic power to sense that the aliens' spacecraft is broken and they want Travis to fix it. Cast The film featured numerous cameos by the musicians in real bands (Asleep at the Wheel, Blondie, and Utopia) as members of Alice Cooper's 'band', politicians (such as then Mayor of Austin Carole McClellan), non-acting show business personalities (such as television composer Jesse Frederick, music producer Joe Gannon and film editor Eric Gardner) and others, some playing a role and others playing themselves.
