Spinal Tap Appreciation Thread

Come on now, Smell The Glove!









I need to buy the Special Edition DVD of this next payday. I rented it (for the zillionth time) this weekend, and it was just too loaded with stuff not to want to buy it. The part when they're discussing the menu/special features was just too friggin funny, lol.

Ooohhhhh heck yes! You know I love that movie!!!

Hilarity, thy name is Spinal Tap.

It's sad that I DO actually like some of their songs (for humors sake of course)

Spinal Tap is an awesome, punctual band!

The SE DVD is like two movies in one. Instead of ?director?s commentary?, you get Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, Harry Shearer commenting in character. Hysterical!

I wish I had had more time to watch all of that, which is why I am buying it.


I always laugh harder at the part where he gets stuck in the pod thing... reminds me of PopMart when the guys were (supposedly) stuck in the lemon.

 

[hippy]

lol I've been talking in "Spinal Tap" accent all day long


I love when they get lost trying to find the stage and that scene just goes on and on and on with them roaming around

I love Spinal Tap! I haven't seen it in years. I think I'm going to have to rent it this weekend. I love the part with the amplifier that goes to 11 and watching Nigel explain that.

Christopher Guest is great! I want to see his new movie A Mighty Wind but I havent' been able to go yet.

 

[IWasBored]

Ian Faith: The Boston gig has been cancelled...
David St. Hubbins: What!?
Ian Faith: Yeah. I wouldn't worry about it though, it's not a big college town.


I howled when this line was referenced in the Elevation 2001 Live in Boston DVD.

I have to be very careful when and to whom I make "stonehenge" references.
Big Bottom
Ends she's got 'em

I like it when they pop up in other band's video/documentary's, they are in character and dead serious.

 

[JOFO]

oh where to begin.....

first of all, when the movie starts and you see a couple of union roadies carrying a gigantic skull and one guy's like "watch it! watch it!"

"I've been working with this bread for some time...and I can't make it fit....I want large bread....and as you can see, it's complete catastrophe"


"Derek Smalls on bass.......he wrote this!" and there's the guy in the front row who's like


absolutely classic.

oh yeah:
"what's wrong with being sexy?"

 

[brettig]

This is heavily influenced by Bach and Mozart...Its a bit between, kindof a Mach piece really.

What's it called?

Lick my love pump.
