hey!.wazup......why 'Steel Dragon'?.Steel Dragon, is the name of a fictitious heavy metal band featuring real musicians, created to appear in the Waner bros. movie Rockstar (2001), inclusively being responsible for the movie's original soundtrak. The members, especially the lead singer, had an over the top look and attitude similar to those seen in some famous hair bands of the 80s.The story behind the band in the movie was freely based on a curious incident that happened to Judas Priest; their original vocalist Rob Harford was replaced by a fan, Tim 'Ripper' Owens, who was previously the lead singer of a Judas Priest tribute band called "British Steel," which may have influenced the name "Steel Dragon."The band's formation on-screen included the talents of four musicians and had actors playing the role of the lead singers, who actually were dubbed by vocalists Jeff Scott Soto (Talisman, Yngwie J. Malmsteen) and Michael Matijevic during their performances.
Also, there were other additional musicians who gave their contribution to help in the process of composing and performing the songs, as listed below:
Zakk Wylde - Guitarist "Ghode"
Jeff Pilson - Bassist "Jörgen"
Jason Bonham - Drummer "A.C."

Jeff Scott Soto - Lead vocals for "Bobby Beers"
Mark Wahlberg (Actor) - Lead singer "Chris 'Izzy' Cole"
