• When director Penelope Spheeris was asked why she declined to direct this sequel after directing the original, she said couldn't "deal" with Mike Myers again. Apparently Myers and Spheeris had a few "creative differences".
  
  
• There is a scene where the "Naked Indian" cries after seeing all the garbage on the concert grounds and garbage being thrown from a car, which lands at his feet. This mimics a public service announcement featuring Iron Eyes Cody which premiered in 1971.
  
  
• When Wayne gets off the phone with Jeff Wong, the last thing Wayne says is "Chi soh hai bin do ah", as if it were a way of saying "Goodbye". However, this is actually Cantonese for "Where is the toilet?"
  
  
• Garth wears a T-shirt that says "Video Toaster", a CGI special effects system that Dana Carvey's brother Brad Carvey designed. Brad was the person on whom Dana based his "Garth" character.
  
  
• The story that the roadie keeps telling, about having to fill a brandy glass with brown M&Ms for Ozzy Osbourne, is based on a true story that has become a bit of an urban legend. Van Halen actually had a rider (a contractual list of items that a band demands from the concert venue - towels, catering, stage equipment requirements, etc.) that said there must be a bowl of M&Ms backstage, but with all the brown ones removed. The reason for the absurd rule was to make sure that the entire rider (which included safety measurements for the band's exceptionally large and heavy stage set) had been read and obeyed in full. Sure enough at Pueblo, Colorado show, the rider wasn't read and the staging crashed through the floor. This lead to the urban myth that the band flipped out and intentionally caused the $80,000 worth of damage themselves all because they found brown M&Ms.
  
  
• The New Order song 'Age of Consent' was due to be used in the film, but due to a lack of money to pay the royalties, a session band was hastily organised at the last minute and a cover version was recorded for use in the film.
  
  
• In one of Wayne's dreams, Jim Morrison is portrayed talking to Sammy Davis Jr. – they both share a December 8th birthday.
  
  
• The call letters of the radio station in the movie, WPIG, were the call letters of the rival radio station to WKRP in the TV sitcom _ "WKRP In Cincinnati" (1978)(TVseries)_.
