Heartland

Heartland Rock is a genre character in The History of Rock & Roll. He is a caricature of American rock singer-songwriter Bob Seger.

Heartland is portrayed as a typical blue-collar American who travels cross-country with his wife Wendy, in a Ford Mustang (which he has dubbed Sally). He believes his music has a social or communal purpose beyond just entertainment. He is prominently featured in the story arc "In the Heartland", where Glam and Grunge hitch a ride with him after getting thrown off the bus for fighting.

Wendy
Wendy is the wife of Heartland Rock. Her namesake is taken from a character from Bruce Springsteen's 1975 song "Born to Run". She first met her husband when she was working part time at a pizza place, similar to the one in "In the Heartland: Part 2".
