Now there is absolutely no point in you watching this if you are not a fan of these Swedish musicians. The underlying premiss is completely irrelevant but for the sake of completeness: a pretty useless radio DJ strives to get an interview with the band during their sell-out 1977 tour of Australia. There is lots of back stage footage; live performances of many of their worldwide hits and it generally provides us (fans) with an insight into how a mammoth tour like this actually works; and of just how popular these four folk were. It's an unashamed piece of promotion and marketing, and good fun at that.
