Description
Cast: Matt Johnson, Jay McCarrol, Ben Petrie.
All Matt and Jay ever wanted is to play the Rivoli. These lovable goofballs have spent 17 years concocting farfetched schemes with the sole goal of getting their nonexistent band booked at the Toronto club. So far, they’ve struck out every time. After botching their most harebrained plan yet, they accidently open a rip in the space-time continuum and travel back to where it all began.
