Forget Siegfried and Roy, here come John and Nick.
The core of the story is how these two boys, who started out in life with very different backgrounds, find their way through music.

Steppenwolf is one of the most legendary and at the same time most enigmatic bands in the history of rock music. On the border between mainstream and psychedelic underground, their song "Born to Be Wild" opened the cult film EASY RIDER and became the anthem of an entire generation. The new, hard sound of Steppenwolf was a stab in the heart of the "Summer of Love" and put an end to the hippie era. It is no coincidence that
that they were the very first band to use the word "heavy metal" in their lyrics.
