What's the meaning that "Rock ain't #1 about doing things perfect."?

I'd like to know what the underlined ,bold two lines mean exactly. I can't see each meaning of about in those lines.
I guess #1 and #2 are used as different meanings.
Am I right? So, I need to your help that will make the underlined sentenses more easier lines for my better understandings.

---------The lines go in the movie, "The School of Rock"

-All right. Everybody, class has begun.
And you know what?
You guys have been doing real good in here.
If I was gonna give you a grade,
I'd give you an A.
But that's the problem.
Rock ain't #1 about doing things perfect.
Who can tell me what it's really about #2?

Please my sentenses for my better English compositions.
