Spinal Tap Reunite For Live Earth
You may have heard Nigel Tufnel, David St. Hubbins, and Derek Smalls are reforming (again) in support of a good cause, Al Gore's mega SOS/Live Earth concert series. Of course Marty DiBergi (who "coined the term global warming") was instrumental in getting the band back together, and he's documented his efforts in a new 15-minute short film.
It opened the Tribeca Film Festival last week, and now you can watch it at liveearth.msn.com. See rehearsals for the new tune "Warmer Than Hell" and hear the trio discuss raising money to buy ferrets caesar salad. Also Nigel's been raising miniature horses. (Wonder if they eat miniature bread.)
If you wanna quote This Is Spinal Tap in the comments, we won't stop you.

It's part of a trilogy, a musical trilogy I'm working on in D minor, which is the saddest of all keys, I find. People weep instantly when they hear it, and I don't know why. You know, just simple lines intertwining, you know, very much like - I'm really influenced by Mozart and Bach, and it's sort of in between those, really. It's like a Mach piece, really. This piece is called "Lick My Love Pump".

I do not, for one, think that the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem may have been, that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being crushed by a dwarf. Alright? That tended to understate the hugeness of the object.
Score = 0
The musical growth rate of this band cannot even be charted. They are treading water in a sea of retarded sexuality and bad poetry.

Nigel Tufnel: It's like, how much more black could this be? and the answer is none. None more black.

You'd think some computer geek working at Microsoft would sneak an 'n' with an umlaut over it into Windows Character Map so that we could spell 'Spinal Tap' correctly. If Macs do have an 'n' with an umlaut over it, that's further evidence that Macs are cooler than PCs.
