Mockumentary

Dude, You Need to Stop Dancing features a fictional story about the band growing tired of one another while on tour. Tensions build, and eventually the band decides to call it quits. Most of the mockumentary focuses on members Connor Lovat-Fraser (lead vocals), Jeff Davis (lead guitar), Brian Southall (drums) and Dave Costa (bass) and how much they dislike each other. Keyboard player and vocalist Kara Dupuy was in the band at the time, but doesn't feature in the mockumentary. Most of the action surrounds the band as they prepare to play their last shows.

Towards the end, Connor starts a music project, called Skittlebrau, which is a reference to The Simpsons
