[sdiy] OT: Music movies (was: Mr. Kirby)

[Pete]

 How about "Xanadu" There is a scene with an 80's rock band playing a huge 
modular and an Oberheim 4 voice. There is some guy that runs on stage 
playing a small hand held synth. There is also a girl stuck to the modular 
with patch cords! Xanadu is a great cheesy movie. The soundtrack is by ELO.
