internal struggles among the actual steel dragon band members culminate with the firing of their lead singer, bobby beers (jason flemyng), and the beginning of recruitment sessions to find a new vocalist. chris experiences his own strife with his blood pollution bandmates, particularly guitarist rob malcolm (timothy olyphant). during a live performance, rob's playing fails to live up to chris' over-demanding standards regarding note-for-note accuracy to the original steel dragon recordings, and chris sabotages rob's amplifier mid-song – a fight breaks out between the two onstage. the next day, chris meets blood pollution at a rehearsal session, but he finds out that he has been replaced with his arch-rival, the (now former) lead singer of another steel dragon tribute band. rob also cites chris' inability to create his own musical style, preferring to remain the singer in a tribute band.
