So they won the Open Mic contest?

Or is that open to interpretation? I thought it was stupid that we didn't get to see them on the stage.

They never made it to the open mic competition. When they came back out to get what was left of the pick, the Devil was there. Before defeating him, a part of the conditions if they won was that the Devil would have to pay their rent (which is why they entered the competition in the first place).

Just curious, do you think it would have been better if after defeating Satan they went back into the club and performed again with other bands? Or is it that they shouldn't have had the "rock off" at all? Trying to figure out the stupid part (outside of the obvious).

SPOILER: I don't think they got a chance to, because the Devil put the POD back in his tooth, and they had to work with the BOD the next day. But, the Devil had to pay their rent forever (which is waht they agreed to in the rock-off)... SO... they didn't HAVE to win for the money... their rent was paid.

I don't believe in the Republican party or the Democratic party... I just believe in parties.

I think we should've seen the D in the open mic contest and play with the pick, and rock, and right before the winner of the open mic contest is chosen, Jack and Kyle step outside to talk about the pick, and who should use itwhen they go on tour etc., leading to the rest of the events as we saw in the film

This is not me.

that would of been pretty cool

[–] intrepidjournalist 16 years ago

No way Satan is paying their rent forever; they didn't beat him. He says at the end of their performance "You guys are *beep* lame!" and then tries to take KG to hell with him, proof that Tenacious didn't win the Rock Off. They just outwitted him with the deflected spell and JB's sentencing spell.

After 20 years of practice, I still can't spit like Josey Wales.

yeah that's what i thought happened. like the only thing that happens at the end is they are still the same "losers" but with an awesome bong.

I think it's hilarious that instead of using the horn to make a new pick or something else musical, they make it into a bong. As if the idea hadn't occurred to them (yet).

I originally thought they didn't but 1. they're part was better and 2. JB defeated him with his guitar so he technically beat him with his rock.
