Britain’s “Loudest Band” Is Back!
If you know the eternal enjoyment that is the film “This Is Spinal Tap”, then you probably know that a long long long awaited sequel is finally here!
First, the trailer for “Spinal Tape II: The End Continues!”
Yes, the boys are back – and while older than The Rolling Stones, they are ready to rock!
And look who takes the stage with the legendary band!
That’s right: Elton John performs Spinal Tap’s classic rocker “Stonehenge” live in the film!
Here is the music video they just released:
Word is that Paul McCartney also appears in the film – we’ll see how many more terrific musical moments are packed in there as well!
“This Is Spinal Tap” is one of my favorite films: it’s hilariously funny, and the greatest “mockumentary” of all time: the story of a band attempting a comeback – except there never WAS a band called Spinal Tap!
Along with their horrifically awful album covers, the band fades into obscurity before Japan – yes, those wacky kids in Japan – rescue them from oblivion – and the conmeback is on!
See more about this film that “goes to eleven”, and remember: “Hello Cleveland!”
Click here for the trailer and many great trivia moments, including all of their horrible album covers and the real rock band who didn’t know the band was fake!
One of the great moments from the film is when one band member gets trapped on stage in a giant egg – oh, and that was based on something that really happened!

I love that film! My son is a guitarist and he introduced me to it. I love the bit where they can’t find the stage, lol.

This has to be a ‘must see’ film! (I could do without Macca and Elton being in it though)
Best wishes, Pete.
