Alright, thanks a lot!

I had seen Spinal Tap many many years ago when I was a wee lad.
And now I have to find a copy and watch it again. All because of you!

My view, a cult classic.

I'm still shocked that all amplifiers manufactured don't go up to 11.

Course it could be like a few of my other childhood favorites that when I watch it now, I only wonder what it was that I enjoyed about it back then....

I liked the tragic and mysterious deaths of the drummers in the band.
I can't remember which drummer drowned in... someone else's vomit.
Simply hilarious!

"These go to 11" CLASSIC !!! This is one of the most referenced jokes in the music industry, right behind the SNL cowbell skit.

It's a classic, still the definitive mockumentary.

Trivia fact: Christopher Guest, the actor who played Spinal Tap's Nigel Tufnel

also played Count Rugen, the "six-fingered man" from "The Princess Bride" (which is another classic).
