Corrected entry: When the band is at the hotel in Hollywood, a reporter asks them "Why don't you have long hair like The Beatles?" The movie is supposed to have taken place in 1964, The Beatles didn't have long hair at that time, it wasn't until a few years later.

Correction: The mop-style haircuts that the Beatles had when they first became popular were considered long at the time. This was a time when the norm was buzz cuts and military style cuts were the big style on men. Their "long" hair is one of the things that made parents at the time dislike them, thinking that it was a bad influence on their kids.
