To the best of my knowledge, there was no second theatrical film.

However, in the early 1990's they released Break Like The Wind and I think even toured.

There were television appearances and it seems like there was a home video released.

I even had the guitar magazine that they were on the cover of (featuring Nigel's "Marshall Stack" guitar...) that had SOYCD Parts 1-5 transcribed within, lol.

Floyd and Tap...does it get any better than that?

its 4 twin humbuckers stuck together, the attackometer is awsome(thing that looks like a pressure gauge), it actually reads how hard you hit the strings!!!
