Starrphyre is your average dorky 16-year-old, although with one difference. He has a very weird girly name, thanks to his hippy parents - a live-to-air radio sex therapist mum and a bass player dad from a tragic one-hit-wonder 80s metal band. A long hot summer stretches ahead of Starrphyre and all he wants is one date with his dream girl, Candace McAllister. But how can he get her to notice him when she's the star of every other high-school guy's fantasies Perhaps starting a band with his video-game obsessed pals will do the trick...
