Spinal Tap in (deep) conversation regarding their 2009 album Back from the Dead -
Description: David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel and Derek Smalls of Spinal Tap take us through a wide variety of philosophical conundrums, such as loudness, soft music, unusual time signatures, Music of the Spheres, research, American history, spirituality, poverty, integrity, the point at which you are least dead, how to put together a good setlist, female ducks, their aborted 1980 trip to Jamaica, the collapse of the British Empire, musical sacrifice, nightmares, Stonehenge and low-frequent creatures of the night.

man after seeing this they need to make a sequel to spinal tap with all these old rockers trying to squeeze the last dimes out of there careers that peeked 30 years ago its more than appropriate commentary just as it was when the original came out back in the day plus when you get these 3 together its guaranteed laughs
unusual time signature, 4/4, hilarious

True story: I sing and play drums. Someone's party I said, you know "Hotel California?" because I was going to do keyboards. guy said "yes." He lied. (it's a 3 feel in 4. High hat is like a waltz) Had to ignore him the rest of the song. Drummers in a nutshell. Not even the first time I've heard it entirely wrong in paying gigs. Not my money, though. Also: "One does not simply invent new and inappropriate drum fills for 'Hotel California.' "
"Great rock and roll should hurt. It should change your life, not necessarily for the better." truer words were never spoken.
"We know now, even if you're dead, you're not." "Especially when you're dead you're not." "That's the point at which you are least dead." I love how they feed off of each other. If there's ever an Improv Comedy Hall of Fame, Spinal Tap should the first inductees. Pure genius! They have absolutely perfected that inane, wannabe intellectual, meaningless, Rock Star interviewee, psychobabble. It's understandable why some musicians cried actual tears of sadness when they saw the Spinal Tap movie.

Stunningly high intelligence at display. I love how Nigel is a half-tick slow in his delivery on long-winded, convoluted misapprehensions of history and philosophy. Must drive the others' quick minds crazy, yet I think Guest gets some joy out of doing that to them as his own second-level joke. This video really highlights McKean's brilliance.

Not only was it one of the bloodiest wars, but it went down on record as the drunkest war ever fought.. and thank God for that. If not for the brutal hangovers- they'd probably still be fighting today...and if you've never fired a gun repeatedly for hours with a splitting headache- stopping only to vomit- it's not a lot of fun. Believe me. Then again there are some historians who suggest were it not for the drinking, they might never have started fighting in the first place.
Jazz is the music of fear ;-)
I love this almost as much as the movie itself, hilarious as hell!
comedic geniuses, improvising quotable hilarity left right and centre, bouncing off each other in character they deserve respect for not bursting into laughter. And the music as ironic as it still rocks. I love nigel.
Yet another classic addition to the Spinal Tap legacy!
I have been well and truly rocked.
These guys play off each other so well! Couldn't stop laughing!

Hahaha Nigel always citing his "research"!!!
Fascinating. Sometimes the artists themselves struggle to communicate their intent and their opinions. These rock legends do not. They just say the first things that come into their heads and do so without regard to who might watch the interview. Very brave to the point of being bold.
Damn, this is AWESOME!
This is one of the funniest things I've ever heard!

Tremendous - more Tap!
From MSNBC: "Michael McKean, best known for playing Lenny in the '70s hit TV comedy "Laverne and Shirley" and David St. Hubbins in the mockumentary film "This Is Spinal Tap," was hospitalized on Tuesday after being hit by a car in New York. The actor, 64, suffered a broken leg and facial lacerations after being struck when a car jumped a curb at the intersection of W. 86 St. and Broadway. He is being treated at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital, according to NBC New York."

Guest could do a great Jeff Beck even without makeup, but with production it would be spot on. Wish there was an audience for it.
The Irish Indian wars. fucking LOL!!!
OMG! I totally missed the Irish-Indian War in history class. Thank goodness Spinal Tap is here to set the record straight. When the Indians went to Ellis Island to get their Christian names, one can clearly see how the tensions between the indigenous Americans and the Irish were highly sparkable and erupted into the bloody culture clash. So bloody and culturally clashy was this conflict, to this day, history writers are too pained to chronicle it for school children.
Still absolutely bloody hilarious!!!
"You think you want to has jazz"
Forgot about the Irish-Indian war..... Man I am in desperate need of a sequel.
When Nige is so serious describing something... and I'm actually buying into it... then you start laughing... he's so stupid! he's endearing
