    Watched it for the first time last night, havent laughed as much for a film in ages. It IS rock and roll.
    Key moments:
    The bassist getting stuck in the cocoon.
    The Drummer(s) and their unfortunate deaths " He choked on vomit. Wasnt his"
    Stonehenge
    "This goes up to eleven"

    Bloody BRILLIANT film, one of the funniest films EVER

    too many lines to pick a best one..but..

    <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">

    Marty (interviewer): Lets talk about your reviews a little bit...regarding 'Intravenus de Milo': 'This tasteless cover is a good indication of the lack of musical invention within. The music growth of this band cannot even be charted. They are treading water in a sea of retarded sexuality and bad peotry'

    Nigel: That's..that's nit-picking isn't it

    Marty: The gospel according to Spinal Tap: 'The pretentious ponderous collection of religious rock psalms is enough to prompt the question: 'What day did the lord create Spinal Tap and couldn't he have rested on that day too?'

    </font>

    Bloody brilliant.

    Get the DVD if ya can..over an hour of extra footage with great lines like
    <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2"> Regarding monkeys eating bread in the zoo

    David: It's amazing that, although they eat bread every day of their lives, they have never developed any real baking skills

    "You think the cover is bad? You should have seen what they WANTED, and it wasnt a glove she was smelling let me tell you."
    "We were playing the Isle of ,,, ehh, the Isle of Lucy wasnt it?"

    you can't finger print for vomit

    the only bad thing about the film is that the nanny is in it.

    Woman :If I told them once i told them a million times. Its supposed to be spinal tap first and puppet show second

    Bassist : Its a real morale booster

    Woman : Well you do have bigger dressing rooms

    Lead singer: Than the puppets?!? I should f*cking hope so
