Spinal Tap is a semi-fictional heavy metal band, the subject of the 1984 rockumentary/mockumentary film This Is Spinal Tap. The band members are portrayed by Michael McKean (as David St. Hubbins), Christopher Guest (as Nigel Tufnel) and Harry Shearer (as Derek Smalls). They first appeared in a 1978 ABC comedy special, The TV Show. The same trio of actors would be reunited as the American folk music revival band The Folksmen in the 2003 mockumentary A Mighty Wind.
This is Spinal Tap was accompanied by a soundtrack album of the same name. In the years since the film was made the actors who portrayed the band members have played concerts and released music under the Spinal Tap name.
Thank you for a fantastic show in Milwaukee...unfortunate the show wasn't at Shank Hall though! My wife and I had a ball! Heavy Duty acoustic Rock N Roll! :)
awesome show in Jacksonville last night, even though Harry forgot the words to Loco Man haha :) My brother got to ask you guys if you were gonna be on the Simpsons again, and I hope it happens!
Well, the move to the Jones Hall Annex wasn't nearly as zoo-like as I expected. The show was excellent, as was expected. Maybe even better than expected.
I just wanted to say thank you guys for a great show! it was the most fun I have ever had going to a concert! I hope you guys do another one and come back to arizona!
