Play :: A journey through the crazy story of the British music scene as seen through the eyes of wannabe rock star Mike West. Guitarist Mike is the Forrest Gump of British pop music. Over four decades from the rise of the Beatles to the chart dominance of Britpop, Mike witnesses it all. Every musical style he plays it, every drug going he1ll take it. Mike has been there, done that, eaten the Mars Bar. But just how much is Mike willing to sacrifice for stardom - to be 'the next big thing' ?
