The documentary was filmed using a few cameras that the band packed in their new van. On the film it can be seen from scenes of hilarity, such as Billie Joe from Green Day branding Chris from Kut U Up's ass with a pool cue, to real-life drama, such as Chris's second degree burns as a result of the branding, on its uncensored format. It shows the things that happened during the summer of 2002, exploring the hard bonds of friendship and emotions that they lived. It shows many backstage scenes where the audience can find out what happens there. Trivia: They smoke lots of weed.
