    isn't the line "your kids are gonna love it" in reference to the band and the audience, having stopped dancing/playing and just staring at him like he's insane after part-way into Johnny B. Goode he goes bonkers and shreds for several minutes, flopping on his back, kicking amps and trying to be Eddie Van Halen? the full line is, "Guess you guys aren't ready for that yet... but your kids are gonna love it." he starts going off the rails in the clip at 4m 36s

    he's not talking about Johnny B. Goode. they all loved that. he's talking about his wackass odyssey solo he trails off into.

      Oh wow, I feel so stupid right now. I've seen that movie so many times and never even thought that line was actually referencing the solo routine Marty did and not Johnny B. Goode, but that's obviously what ”your kids are gonna love” picard
