Here's a fun one, when Marty tried out at his school's talent show, what band did he play with, and who was the teacher that told him he was too loud?

@Seph :verified: Their band is called the Pinheads but I didn't know who's the teacher that tells them to stop. It turns out it's Huey Lewis himself, from whom they're playing a hard rock version of "The Power of Love".

@Seph :verified: This seems to be inaccurate, in the movie the Pinheads are portrayed by:
- Michael J. Fox (Guitar)
- Paul Hanson (Bass Guitar, also Fox's guitar coach, he actually performed the solo in the song)
- Lee Brownfield (?)
- Robert DeLapp (?)

@Seph :verified: It isn't too far fetched a rumor since Huey Lewis appears in the movie as well.
