- The story follows "The Band with Rocks In" through their short-lived but glamorous musical career. The band consists of the following members:
* Imp Y Celyn, a young lad from Llamedos who sings and plays the guitar. His name is Welsh and means "Bud of the holly". Later on he uses the name "Buddy".
* Lias Bluestone, a Troll who does percussion, which in typical troll fashion consists of banging rocks together. He later takes the name "Cliff", despite his colleagues' warning that no-one would last long in the music business with a name like that.
* Glod Glodsson, a Dwarfs who plays horn, and is not ashamed to admit he is in it for the money.
* The Librarian joins the Band for a little while to play the piano, but leaves the band before they become famous.

| - Soul music is a popular music genre that originated in the United States in the late 1950's and early 1960's. It combines elements of African-American gospel-music, rhythm and blues and jazz.
- The story follows "The Band with Rocks In" through their short-lived but glamorous musical career. The band consists of the following members:
* Imp Y Celyn, a young lad from Llamedos who sings and plays the guitar. His name is Welsh and means "Bud of the holly". Later on he uses the name "Buddy".
* Lias Bluestone, a Troll who does percussion, which in typical troll fashion consists of banging rocks together. He later takes the name "Cliff", despite his colleagues' warning that no-one would last long in the music business with a name like that.
* Glod Glodsson, a Dwarfs who plays horn, and is not ashamed to admit he is in it for the money.
* The Librarian joins the Band for a little while to play the piano, but leaves the band before they become famous. The band is "discovered" by C.M.O.T. Dibbler, who becomes the Disc's first music manager. He tries to cash in by any means possible whilst keeping the band ignorant. He also hires the troll Asphalt as a roadie to accompany the band on its tour. Meanwhile, Death is in one of his philosophical moods, and takes a holiday in search of a way to forget his more troubling memories, such as the recent demise of his adopted daughter Ysabell and her husband Mort. In the meantime, his granddaughter Susan discovers the truth about her heritage when she is forced to stand in for her missing grandfather. Complications ensue when she falls in love with Buddy, and tries to save him from his "live fast, die young" destiny as the Discworld's first rock star. Buddy wants to do a free concert, and after Dibbler figures out how much money he can make by selling T-shirts, sausages-in-a-bun etc. to the audience, he agrees. A large number of bands, all of whom have formed in response to the original "Band with Rocks In", participate in the largest concert of all time. Afterwards the band flees from their crazed fans. They are pursued by the angry Musicians Guild, C.M.O.T. Dibbler, Susan and Death.
