The Rocker

I just watched The Rocker, the 2008 film starring Rainn Wilson (famous for playing Dwight Schrute on the American version of The Office).

It's about a guy who missed his big chance to play in a world-famous rock band, having been unceremoniously fired right before they hit the bigtime.

As he struggles to make his way in "real life" he finds himself sitting at a bus stop next to the guy pictured below. Get it? Scroll to the bottom of The Rocker's cast--can you spot a vaguely familiar name? In case you have no idea what the reference is, here is this guy's wikipedia page.
