1
00:00:28,946 --> 00:00:31,740
Hello. My name is Marty DiBergi.

2
00:00:31,907 --> 00:00:33,367
I'm a filmmaker.

3
00:00:33,534 --> 00:00:35,369
I make a lot of commercials.

4
00:00:35,536 --> 00:00:37,663
That little dog that chases
the covered wagon

5
00:00:37,829 --> 00:00:39,206
underneath the sink.

6
00:00:39,373 --> 00:00:40,373
That was mine.

7
00:00:41,458 --> 00:00:43,001
In 1966,

8
00:00:44,169 --> 00:00:46,088
I went down to Greenwich Village
in New York,

9
00:00:46,255 --> 00:00:48,840
to a rock club called the Electric Banana.

10
00:00:49,007 --> 00:00:51,260
Don't look for it. It's not there anymore.

11
00:00:51,426 --> 00:00:55,138
But that night,
I heard a band that, for me,

12
00:00:55,305 --> 00:00:57,140
redefined the word "rock 'n' roll."

13
00:00:57,849 --> 00:01:01,436
I remember being knocked out
by their exuberance,

14
00:01:01,603 --> 00:01:04,731
their raw power and their punctuality.

15
00:01:06,108 --> 00:01:09,653
That band was Britain's
now-legendary Spinal Tap.

16
00:01:10,696 --> 00:01:13,865
Seventeen years and 15 albums later,

17
00:01:14,032 --> 00:01:16,451
Spinal Tap is still going strong.

18
00:01:17,077 --> 00:01:19,538
And they've earned
a distinguished place in rock history

19
00:01:19,705 --> 00:01:21,957
as one of England's loudest bands.

20
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,502
So in the late fall of 1982,

21
00:01:25,669 --> 00:01:28,088
when I heard
that Tap was releasing a new album

22
00:01:28,255 --> 00:01:29,756
called "Smell the Glove"

23
00:01:29,923 --> 00:01:32,050
and was planning their first tour
of the United States

24
00:01:32,217 --> 00:01:34,511
in almost six years
to promote that album,

25
00:01:34,678 --> 00:01:36,638
well, needless to say,
I jumped at the chance

26
00:01:36,805 --> 00:01:38,473
to make the documentary,

27
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,477
the, if you will, rockumentary
that you're about to see.

28
00:01:42,978 --> 00:01:47,024
I wanted to capture the sights,
the sounds,

29
00:01:47,190 --> 00:01:51,236
the smells of a hardworking rock band
on the road.

30
00:01:51,862 --> 00:01:53,071
And I got that.

31
00:01:54,114 --> 00:01:55,324
But I got more.

32
00:01:56,158 --> 00:01:57,200
A lot more.

33
00:01:58,285 --> 00:02:00,287
But, hey, enough of my yakking.

34
00:02:00,454 --> 00:02:02,331
What do you say? Let's boogie!

35
00:02:12,424 --> 00:02:14,426
Gives me a lot of energy,
makes me happy.

36
00:02:14,593 --> 00:02:16,303
Metal's deep. You get stuff out of it.

37
00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:18,513
The way they dress, the leather.

38
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,975
- Which one is this? LaGuardia?
- No, this is JFK.

39
00:02:22,142 --> 00:02:23,769
- Oh, yes.
- New York, New York.

40
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,900
Watch its mouth, watch its mouth.

41
00:02:41,495 --> 00:02:44,373
It's like you become one
with the guys in the band.

42
00:02:44,539 --> 00:02:47,167
I mean, there's... There's no division.

43
00:02:47,334 --> 00:02:51,880
You just...
The music just unites people...

44
00:02:52,798 --> 00:02:54,091
with the players.

45
00:02:54,257 --> 00:02:58,762
You want it right?
Direct from hell, Spinal Tap!

Let's talk a little bit about
the history of the group.

57
00:04:21,428 --> 00:04:25,307
I understand, Nigel, you and David
originally started the band,

58
00:04:25,474 --> 00:04:27,809
well, back in, when was it, 1964?

59
00:04:27,976 --> 00:04:29,644
Before that, we were in different groups.

60
00:04:29,811 --> 00:04:32,189
I was in a skiffle group
called The Creatures.

61
00:04:32,355 --> 00:04:33,440
I was in Lovely Lads.

62
00:04:33,607 --> 00:04:35,942
And then we looked
at each other and said:

63
00:04:36,109 --> 00:04:39,279
"We might as well join up,"
you know, and...

64
00:04:39,446 --> 00:04:41,615
- So we became The Originals.
- Right.

65
00:04:41,782 --> 00:04:44,284
And we had to change our name, actually.

66
00:04:44,451 --> 00:04:47,412
Well, there was another group
in the East End called The Originals.

67
00:04:47,579 --> 00:04:49,372
We had to rename ourselves.

68
00:04:49,539 --> 00:04:51,875
- The New Originals.
- The New Originals. And then...

69
00:04:52,042 --> 00:04:53,502
- They became...
- The Regulars.

70
00:04:53,668 --> 00:04:55,712
They changed their name and we thought,

71
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:58,673
we could go back to The Originals,
but what's the point?

72
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:01,176
We became The Thamesmen
at that point.

Your first drummer was...

82
00:05:36,795 --> 00:05:38,195
- The Peeper.
- John Stumpy Pepys...

83
00:05:38,338 --> 00:05:40,090
- Yeah.
- Great, great, uh...

84
00:05:40,757 --> 00:05:43,426
tall, blond geek with glasses.

85
00:05:43,593 --> 00:05:46,388
- Yeah. Good drummer.
- Great look. Good drummer.

86
00:05:46,555 --> 00:05:47,639
Fine drummer.

87
00:05:47,806 --> 00:05:50,016
- What happened to him?
- He died.

88
00:05:50,183 --> 00:05:54,187
He died in a bizarre gardening accident
some years back.

89
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:57,399
It's really one of those things,
it was, you know,

90
00:05:57,566 --> 00:05:59,734
the authorities said,
you know, "Best leave it."

91
00:05:59,901 --> 00:06:02,737
- Yeah.
- Unsolved, really, you know?

92
00:06:02,904 --> 00:06:04,489
And he was replaced by, uh...

93
00:06:04,656 --> 00:06:06,700
Stumpy Joe. Eric Stumpy Joe.

94
00:06:06,867 --> 00:06:08,994
What happened to Stumpy Joe?

95
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,495
Well, uh,

96
00:06:10,662 --> 00:06:13,081
it's not a very pleasant story, but, uh...

97
00:06:13,248 --> 00:06:15,375
- He's passed on.
- He died, uh...

98
00:06:15,542 --> 00:06:17,419
He choked on...

99
00:06:17,586 --> 00:06:21,381
The official explanation
was he choked on vomit.

100
00:06:22,257 --> 00:06:23,508
So he's passed away.

101
00:06:23,675 --> 00:06:26,052
It was actually
someone else's vomit.

102
00:06:26,219 --> 00:06:27,345
- It's not...
- It's ugly.

103
00:06:27,512 --> 00:06:29,014
There's no real...

104
00:06:29,180 --> 00:06:31,224
Well, they can't prove whose vomit it was.

105
00:06:31,391 --> 00:06:33,602
They don't have the facilities
at Scotland Yard...

106
00:06:33,768 --> 00:06:36,021
There's no way
to print a spectra-photograph.

107
00:06:36,187 --> 00:06:37,439
You can't dust for vomit.

108
00:06:38,565 --> 00:06:40,650
Here we go.

109
00:06:40,817 --> 00:06:42,110
Soho, they call this place.

110
00:06:42,277 --> 00:06:44,362
- It's the band!
- "So" what?

111
00:06:44,529 --> 00:06:46,448
{\an8}Soho.

112
00:06:50,619 --> 00:06:53,830
- How are you?
- Nice to see you!

113
00:06:53,997 --> 00:06:57,250
- Ian! Hi, fellas.
- Yes.

114
00:06:57,417 --> 00:07:00,128
How are you doing? Come over here.

115
00:07:00,295 --> 00:07:02,255
- Who is that?
- Bobbi Flekman.

116
00:07:02,422 --> 00:07:04,382
- Who's that?
- Bobbi Flekman. Bobbi Flekman.

117
00:07:04,549 --> 00:07:07,093
- With the record company?
- Come over here, everybody.

118
00:07:07,260 --> 00:07:09,220
So, yes, Bobbi Flekman...

119
00:07:09,387 --> 00:07:12,182
- Bobbi, of course, how are you?
- The hostess with the mostest.

120
00:07:12,349 --> 00:07:13,589
- We know.
- You know, you know.

121
00:07:13,725 --> 00:07:16,686
{\an8}Hi, handsome. How you doing?

122
00:07:16,853 --> 00:07:19,731
{\an8}All right, listen, I want you all
to meet Sir Denis Eton-Hogg.

123
00:07:19,898 --> 00:07:21,900
- He's the head of Polymer.
- We know.

124
00:07:22,067 --> 00:07:24,277
You don't talk so much,
just smile and look smart.

125
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:27,322
- Oh, she knows.
- Denis, come here! Come here.

126
00:07:27,489 --> 00:07:29,991
I want you to meet Spinal Tap,
our guests of honor.

127
00:07:30,158 --> 00:07:32,953
{\an8}- How very nice to meet you.
- Kids, this is Sir Denis Eton-Hogg.

128
00:07:33,119 --> 00:07:34,663
{\an8}- Hello.
- This is Nigel.

129
00:07:34,829 --> 00:07:37,624
- Oh, so this is Nigel.
- Thanks a lot for letting us...

130
00:07:37,791 --> 00:07:41,586
Yeah. Let's go over here
and take a picture together.

131
00:07:41,753 --> 00:07:44,047
Where's Christine?
Where's my photographer?

132
00:07:44,214 --> 00:07:46,466
Come over here, honey.
What's your name? Christine?

133
00:07:47,342 --> 00:07:49,344
Okay, right over here.

134
00:07:49,511 --> 00:07:51,763
Good. Good!

135
00:07:55,725 --> 00:07:58,645
Guys, you look great.
I mean, you look fantastic.

136
00:07:58,812 --> 00:08:00,522
You would never know you're almost 40.

137
00:08:00,689 --> 00:08:03,441
If I looked this good from the stage too,
it's amazing, you know.

138
00:08:03,608 --> 00:08:05,694
- I did the bird.
- Do the dead bird, change this.

139
00:08:05,860 --> 00:08:07,988
- Get the dwarf cannolis.
- I did the bird.

140
00:08:08,154 --> 00:08:10,532
Come on, don't talk back, huh?
Mime is money, let's go!

141
00:08:10,699 --> 00:08:13,243
- Come on, move it!
- Now, we here at Polymer.

142
00:08:13,410 --> 00:08:18,623
We're all looking forward to a long
and fruitful relationship with Spinal Tap.

143
00:08:18,790 --> 00:08:22,794
We wish them great success
on their North American tour,

144
00:08:22,961 --> 00:08:24,921
and so say all of us:

145
00:08:25,088 --> 00:08:27,882
Tap into America!

146
00:08:28,049 --> 00:08:30,051
Yeah!

147
00:08:33,138 --> 00:08:36,224
Excuse me.
Are you reading <i>Yes, I Can?</i>

148
00:08:36,891 --> 00:08:39,602
- Yeah. Have you read it?
- Yeah, by Sammy Davis Jr.?

149
00:08:39,769 --> 00:08:40,769
Yeah.

150
00:08:40,854 --> 00:08:42,897
You know what the title
of that book should be?

151
00:08:43,064 --> 00:08:44,941
<i>Yes, I Can,</i>

152
00:08:45,108 --> 00:08:47,569
<i>if Frank Sinatra Says It's Okay.</i>

153
00:08:47,736 --> 00:08:50,030
'Cause Frank calls the shots
for all of those guys.

154
00:08:50,196 --> 00:08:54,284
Did you get to the part yet
where Sammy's coming out of the Copa

155
00:08:54,451 --> 00:08:57,954
and it's about 3 o'clock in the morning
and he sees Frank?

156
00:08:58,705 --> 00:09:00,832
Frank's walking down Broadway
by himself...

157
00:09:04,085 --> 00:09:05,253
Fuckin' limeys.

158
00:09:06,254 --> 00:09:07,964
Well, you know, they're not, uh...

159
00:09:08,131 --> 00:09:09,775
- Yeah, yeah.
- They're not used to that world.

160
00:09:09,799 --> 00:09:11,426
Frank Sinatra. It's a different world.

161
00:09:12,177 --> 00:09:14,721
You know, it's just people like this...

162
00:09:16,222 --> 00:09:19,434
You know, they get all they want,
so they don't really understand,

163
00:09:19,601 --> 00:09:21,041
you know, about a life like Frank's.

164
00:09:21,144 --> 00:09:24,397
I mean, when you've loved
and lost the way Frank has,

165
00:09:24,564 --> 00:09:26,858
then you know what life's about.

166
00:09:27,025 --> 00:09:28,318
{\an8}The <i>Times</i> may even do something.

167
00:09:28,485 --> 00:09:30,070
{\an8}- Really?
<i>- New York Times?</i>

168
00:09:30,236 --> 00:09:32,036
{\an8}That's a minor bump
we've got to iron out here

169
00:09:32,155 --> 00:09:33,907
is when do we get the album released.

170
00:09:34,074 --> 00:09:36,659
It doesn't matter how good the press is
or what the stringers...

171
00:09:36,826 --> 00:09:38,828
As I explained last night, you know,

172
00:09:38,995 --> 00:09:41,372
we're not gonna saturate
the New York market.

173
00:09:41,539 --> 00:09:43,374
Now, Philly,
that's a real rock 'n' roll town.

174
00:09:43,541 --> 00:09:44,541
Great town.

175
00:09:44,626 --> 00:09:47,003
Be assured
that the album will be available

176
00:09:47,170 --> 00:09:49,506
all through the Philadelphia
metropolitan area.

177
00:09:49,672 --> 00:09:51,257
So you are hitting that market,

178
00:09:51,424 --> 00:09:53,301
regardless of how we're selling
in New York?

179
00:09:53,468 --> 00:09:55,512
We're certainly doing...
I'm doing everything I can.

180
00:09:55,678 --> 00:09:57,722
We're not blaming you. You know that.

181
00:09:57,889 --> 00:10:00,892
But you don't feel these guys have
an effect on an audience?

182
00:10:01,059 --> 00:10:03,144
Kids go to their concert.
They have a great time.

183
00:10:03,311 --> 00:10:06,439
But it's a passing thing, it's, uh...

184
00:10:07,690 --> 00:10:10,193
I mean, I would never tell them this,
but this is, uh...

185
00:10:11,611 --> 00:10:12,987
This is a fad.

00:12:13,483 --> 00:12:16,069
Let's talk about your reviews
a little bit.

207
00:12:16,236 --> 00:12:17,737
Regarding <i>Intravenus de Milo.</i>

208
00:12:17,904 --> 00:12:20,156
"This tasteless cover is a good indication

209
00:12:20,323 --> 00:12:22,367
of the lack of musical invention within.

210
00:12:22,951 --> 00:12:26,329
The musical growth rate of this band
cannot even be charted.

211
00:12:26,496 --> 00:12:30,208
They are treading water in a sea
of retarded sexuality and bad poetry."

212
00:12:30,375 --> 00:12:31,626
That's nit-picking, isn't it?

213
00:12:31,793 --> 00:12:33,962
<i>The Gospel
According to Spinal Tap.</i>

214
00:12:34,462 --> 00:12:37,966
"This pretentious, ponderous collection
of religious rock psalms

215
00:12:38,132 --> 00:12:40,051
is enough to prompt the question:

216
00:12:40,218 --> 00:12:43,137
'What day did the Lord create Spinal Tap,

217
00:12:43,304 --> 00:12:45,640
and couldn't he have rested
on that day too?"'

218
00:12:46,307 --> 00:12:47,642
Never heard that one.

219
00:12:47,809 --> 00:12:49,018
That's a good one.

220
00:12:49,185 --> 00:12:50,770
The review you had
on <i>Shark Sandwich,</i>

221
00:12:50,937 --> 00:12:53,815
which was merely a two-word review,

222
00:12:53,982 --> 00:12:56,693
just said, "Shit sandwich."

223
00:12:56,859 --> 00:12:58,278
Where'd they print that?

224
00:12:58,444 --> 00:12:59,821
Where did that appear?

225
00:12:59,988 --> 00:13:01,908
- That's not real, is it?
- You can't print that.

226
00:13:02,657 --> 00:13:05,243
{\an8}<i>All those arguments
about touring or not touring</i>

227
00:13:05,410 --> 00:13:08,246
{\an8}<i>and all that, it's obvious
we belong on tour, you know...</i>

228
00:13:08,413 --> 00:13:10,832
{\an8}<i>Agree. All that stuff
about you being too old</i>

229
00:13:10,999 --> 00:13:12,792
{\an8}<i>- and you being too white.
- Yeah.</i>

230
00:13:12,959 --> 00:13:14,669
But what about the album, Ian?

231
00:13:14,836 --> 00:13:17,797
- Well, that's the real problem.
- Yeah.

232
00:13:17,964 --> 00:13:20,925
There's no way to promote something
that doesn't exist.

233
00:13:21,092 --> 00:13:24,595
It's a very unimportant reason,
it's just they're experimenting

234
00:13:24,762 --> 00:13:27,765
with some new, uh, packaging materials.

235
00:13:27,932 --> 00:13:29,618
- Let me get the door.
- What kind of experimenting?

236
00:13:29,642 --> 00:13:31,144
Monkeys opening it or what?

237
00:13:31,311 --> 00:13:34,105
The other thing is that the Boston gig
has been canceled.

238
00:13:34,272 --> 00:13:36,190
- What?
- I wouldn't worry about it.

239
00:13:36,357 --> 00:13:37,734
It's not a big college town.

240
00:13:40,695 --> 00:13:43,197
I heard you boys got an album coming out.

241
00:13:43,364 --> 00:13:45,783
Yeah, it's called <i>Smell the Glove.</i>
It should be out now.

242
00:13:45,950 --> 00:13:48,244
<i>- Smell the Glove?</i>
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

243
00:13:48,411 --> 00:13:50,163
It's a provocative title.

244
00:13:50,330 --> 00:13:52,332
Wait till you see the cover.

245
00:13:52,498 --> 00:13:54,208
- Very provocative indeed.
- Bobbi.

246
00:13:54,375 --> 00:13:56,794
Can I tear you away from all of this?

247
00:13:56,961 --> 00:13:59,047
No. Do you have a drink?

248
00:13:59,213 --> 00:14:01,632
- Everything okay?
- No, I don't really need one.

249
00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:04,093
Listen, I really do have to talk
to you a bit

250
00:14:04,260 --> 00:14:06,179
- about this, uh...
- Ian, just tell me

251
00:14:06,346 --> 00:14:07,555
whatever is on your mind.

252
00:14:07,722 --> 00:14:10,099
- The issue of the cover.
- Yeah.

253
00:14:10,266 --> 00:14:11,768
Um, we...

254
00:14:11,934 --> 00:14:15,396
I mean, we feel,
and it seems to be facts that, uh,

255
00:14:15,563 --> 00:14:17,843
the company is rather down on the cover.
Is that the case?

256
00:14:17,982 --> 00:14:19,692
- Yes.
- You can give it to me straight.

257
00:14:19,859 --> 00:14:21,861
Listen, um, they don't like the cover.

258
00:14:22,028 --> 00:14:23,529
Well, that's certainly straight.

259
00:14:23,696 --> 00:14:26,157
They find it very offensive
and very sexist.

260
00:14:26,324 --> 00:14:27,950
But what exactly do you find offensive?

261
00:14:28,117 --> 00:14:32,080
Ian, you put a greased naked woman

262
00:14:32,246 --> 00:14:36,209
on all fours with a dog collar
around her neck, and a leash.

263
00:14:36,376 --> 00:14:38,211
- And a leash...
- And a man's arm

264
00:14:38,378 --> 00:14:41,422
extended out up to here,
holding on to the leash

265
00:14:41,589 --> 00:14:45,301
and pushing a black glove
in her face to sniff it.

266
00:14:45,468 --> 00:14:46,928
You don't find that offensive?

267
00:14:47,095 --> 00:14:49,597
- You don't find that sexist?
- No, I don't. This is 1982.

268
00:14:49,764 --> 00:14:51,974
That's right, it's 1982.
Get out of the '60s.

269
00:14:52,141 --> 00:14:53,810
We don't have this mentality anymore.

270
00:14:53,976 --> 00:14:55,896
You should have seen
the cover they wanted to do.

271
00:14:55,937 --> 00:14:57,647
- I don't care.
- It wasn't a glove.

272
00:14:57,814 --> 00:15:00,108
This is something you have
to talk to your boys about.

273
00:15:00,274 --> 00:15:02,777
- We're not laying down...
- And I don't think a sexy cover

274
00:15:02,944 --> 00:15:05,279
is the answer for why an album sells
or doesn't sell

275
00:15:05,446 --> 00:15:08,449
because you tell me,
the <i>White Album,</i> what was that?

276
00:15:08,616 --> 00:15:10,451
There was nothing on that goddamn cover.

277
00:15:10,618 --> 00:15:12,578
Excuse me, the phone's ringing.

278
00:15:12,745 --> 00:15:15,123
- Ian, we'll talk about that.
- Okay, bye-bye.

279
00:15:15,289 --> 00:15:16,541
Hello?

280
00:15:16,707 --> 00:15:17,834
Oh, hi, Denis.

281
00:15:19,210 --> 00:15:21,254
Uh-oh. Okay.

282
00:15:21,421 --> 00:15:22,964
Why don't you tell him?

283
00:15:23,131 --> 00:15:24,632
Okay, hold on one minute.

284
00:15:24,799 --> 00:15:27,802
Ian? It's Eton-Hogg.
He wants to talk to you.

285
00:15:27,969 --> 00:15:30,638
- Okay. Thank you, darling.
- You're welcome, dear.

286
00:15:32,098 --> 00:15:33,349
Hello, Sir Denis.

287
00:15:34,308 --> 00:15:36,352
Hi, how are you?

288
00:15:39,021 --> 00:15:40,022
Oh.

289
00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:42,984
Fucking old poofter!

290
00:15:44,318 --> 00:15:47,405
But... But it's really
not that offensive, Sir Denis. Come on.

291
00:15:49,282 --> 00:15:51,784
Okay, I'll call you absolutely
first thing in the morning.

292
00:15:54,620 --> 00:15:56,664
Ah, shit.

293
00:15:56,831 --> 00:15:58,624
They are not gonna release the album

294
00:15:58,791 --> 00:16:02,044
because they have decided
that the cover is sexist.

295
00:16:02,587 --> 00:16:05,465
Well, so what?
What's wrong with being sexy?

296
00:16:05,631 --> 00:16:07,758
- I mean, there's no...
- "Sexist."

297
00:16:07,925 --> 00:16:09,719
Okay, listen, I wanted to tell you this,

298
00:16:09,886 --> 00:16:11,846
and I was holding back
because I didn't know

299
00:16:12,013 --> 00:16:13,848
what Denis's decision was going to be.

300
00:16:14,015 --> 00:16:17,226
At this point, both Sears
and K-Mart stores have refused

301
00:16:17,393 --> 00:16:18,393
to handle the album.

302
00:16:18,519 --> 00:16:21,063
They're boycotting the album only
because of the cover.

303
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:24,817
If the company is behind the album,
it can shove it down their throats.

304
00:16:24,984 --> 00:16:27,695
Money talks and bullshit walks.

305
00:16:27,862 --> 00:16:31,115
If the first album was a hit,
then we could have pressed on them,

306
00:16:31,282 --> 00:16:32,825
then we could have told them, yes...

307
00:16:32,992 --> 00:16:35,703
- Every cut on this album is a hit.
- I don't give a shit.

308
00:16:35,870 --> 00:16:38,331
It's a matter of compromise.
We made a joke a long time ago.

309
00:16:38,498 --> 00:16:40,184
- They're making it a big deal.
- That's it.

310
00:16:40,208 --> 00:16:41,488
If we we're serious and we said:

311
00:16:41,584 --> 00:16:44,253
"Yes, she should be forced
to smell the glove,"

312
00:16:44,420 --> 00:16:47,298
then you'd have a point,
but it's all a joke, isn't it?

313
00:16:47,465 --> 00:16:50,760
It is and it isn't.
She should be made to smell it.

314
00:16:50,927 --> 00:16:52,970
But not, you know,
over and over again.

315
00:16:53,137 --> 00:16:55,389
Listen, we can probably
work something out.

316
00:16:55,556 --> 00:16:58,809
I'll talk to Denis and maybe
we can come up with a compromise.

317
00:16:58,976 --> 00:17:01,145
A new design concept
that we can all live with.

318
00:17:01,312 --> 00:17:03,231
- You guys were schoolmates?
- We...

319
00:17:03,397 --> 00:17:06,234
We don't... We...
We're not university material.

320
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,200
- What's that on your finger?
- That's my gum.

321
00:17:08,361 --> 00:17:09,838
What are you doing with it on your finger?

322
00:17:09,862 --> 00:17:11,239
I might need it later.

323
00:17:11,405 --> 00:17:13,866
- Put it on the table. That's terrible.
- No.

324
00:17:14,033 --> 00:17:15,743
I might forget it on the table.

325
00:17:15,910 --> 00:17:18,746
- You can't take him anywhere.
- How old were you guys when you met?

326
00:17:19,664 --> 00:17:21,874
Eight years old. Eight or nine.

327
00:17:22,041 --> 00:17:24,627
You were eight and I was seven.

328
00:17:24,794 --> 00:17:26,003
That's right, yeah.

329
00:17:26,170 --> 00:17:29,090
Do you remember the first song
that you guys ever wrote together?

330
00:17:29,924 --> 00:17:31,425
"All the Way Home," probably.

331
00:17:31,592 --> 00:17:33,261
- "All the Way Home"?
- Yeah.

332
00:17:33,427 --> 00:17:36,347
Can you remember
a little bit of it? I'd love to hear it.

333
00:17:36,514 --> 00:17:38,015
Christ.

334
00:17:38,182 --> 00:17:39,767
Some black coffee, maybe we could.

335
00:17:39,934 --> 00:17:42,562

348
00:18:13,092 --> 00:18:14,635
- Yeah.
- Fairly simple.

349
00:18:14,802 --> 00:18:17,930
Six words in the whole song.
Just repeat them over and over.

350
00:18:18,097 --> 00:18:20,057
Let's talk about your music today. Um...

351
00:18:20,224 --> 00:18:23,686
One thing that puzzles me, um...

352
00:18:23,853 --> 00:18:26,522
is the makeup
of your audience seems to be,

353
00:18:26,689 --> 00:18:30,192
uh, predominately young boys.

354
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,079
Well, it's a sexual thing,
really, isn't it?

355
00:18:32,236 --> 00:18:34,864
Aside from the identifying
the boys do with us,

356
00:18:35,031 --> 00:18:38,075
there's also a reaction to the female...

357
00:18:38,242 --> 00:18:39,869
Of the female to our music.

358
00:18:40,036 --> 00:18:42,204
- Really, they're quite fearful.
- Yeah.

359
00:18:42,371 --> 00:18:43,414
It was my theory.

360
00:18:43,581 --> 00:18:46,250
They see us on-stage with tight trousers.

361
00:18:46,417 --> 00:18:49,045
We've got, you know,
armadillos in our trousers.

362
00:18:49,211 --> 00:18:51,756
- It's really quite frightening, the size.
- Yeah.

363
00:18:51,922 --> 00:18:54,258
And they run screaming.

364
00:18:59,221 --> 00:19:01,557
Ian, can I have a word
with you for a minute?

365
00:19:01,724 --> 00:19:03,768
- Yes, of course.
- Listen, um...

366
00:19:04,477 --> 00:19:06,562
A couple of problems with the...

367
00:19:06,729 --> 00:19:08,814
- What?
- ...arrangements backstage.

368
00:19:08,981 --> 00:19:10,608
- What exactly?
- Well, uh...

369
00:19:10,775 --> 00:19:12,735
Well, no, there's some problems here.

370
00:19:12,902 --> 00:19:14,945
I don't even know
where to start, all right?

371
00:19:15,112 --> 00:19:17,573
- Soundcheck? What's wrong?
- No, this...

372
00:19:17,740 --> 00:19:20,493
Look, look, there's
a little problem with the, uh...

373
00:19:20,660 --> 00:19:23,496
Look, this miniature bread. It's like...

374
00:19:23,663 --> 00:19:26,582
I've been working with this now
for about half an hour.

375
00:19:26,749 --> 00:19:27,833
I can't figure it out.

376
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,544
Let's say I want a bite, right?
You've got this...

377
00:19:30,711 --> 00:19:33,255
- You'd like bigger bread?
- Exactly. I don't understand...

378
00:19:33,422 --> 00:19:34,924
You could fold this, though.

379
00:19:35,091 --> 00:19:36,634
Well, no, then it's half the size.

380
00:19:36,801 --> 00:19:38,552
Not the bread. You could fold the meat.

381
00:19:38,719 --> 00:19:40,888
Yeah, but then it breaks apart.

382
00:19:41,055 --> 00:19:43,182
No, put it
on the bread like this, see?

383
00:19:43,349 --> 00:19:45,851
But if you keep folding it,
it keeps breaking.

384
00:19:46,018 --> 00:19:48,738
- Why do you keep folding it?
- And then everything has to be folded.

385
00:19:49,313 --> 00:19:51,649
And then it's this, and I don't want this.

386
00:19:51,816 --> 00:19:55,486
I want large bread,
so that I can put this...

387
00:19:55,653 --> 00:19:57,988
- Right.
- So then it's like this.

388
00:19:58,155 --> 00:20:00,574
This doesn't work because then it's all...

389
00:20:00,741 --> 00:20:02,660
- 'Cause it hangs out like that?
- Look!

390
00:20:02,827 --> 00:20:04,370
- Yeah.
- Would you be holding this?

391
00:20:04,537 --> 00:20:06,257
No, I wouldn't want
to put that in my mouth.

392
00:20:06,414 --> 00:20:08,374
- All right, exhibit "A."
- You're right.

393
00:20:08,541 --> 00:20:11,085
Now we move on to this.
Look, look, who's in here?

394
00:20:11,252 --> 00:20:14,463
No one. And then in here
there's a little guy, look.

395
00:20:14,630 --> 00:20:16,382
So it's a complete catastrophe.

396
00:20:16,549 --> 00:20:18,926
- You're right, Nigel. Calm down.
- I mean, I don't...

397
00:20:19,093 --> 00:20:22,138
- Not a big deal. It's a joke.
- I'm sorry, you know.

398
00:20:22,304 --> 00:20:24,265
It's just some crappy university,
you know.

399
00:20:24,432 --> 00:20:25,933
Yeah, right, it's a joke.

400
00:20:26,100 --> 00:20:28,018
I don't want it
to affect your performance.

401
00:20:28,185 --> 00:20:29,185
It's not going to.

402
00:20:29,270 --> 00:20:30,855
- Don't worry about it.
- Okay.

403
00:20:31,021 --> 00:20:33,482
- I hate it. It does disturb me.
- It won't happen again.

404
00:20:33,649 --> 00:20:35,901
- Disgusting.
- I'll rise above it. I'm a professional.

Do you play all...? I mean,
do you actually play all these, or...?

411
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,400
Well, I play them and I cherish them.

412

This is the top of the heap right here.

413
00:22:00,736 --> 00:22:03,697
There's no question about it.
Look at the flame on that one.

414
00:22:03,864 --> 00:22:06,826
I mean, it's just...
It's quite unbelievable.

415

416
00:22:11,580 --> 00:22:13,457
You know, just... You can... Listen.

417
00:22:13,624 --> 00:22:15,626
- How much is it?
- Just listen for a minute.

418
00:22:15,793 --> 00:22:18,379
- The sustain. Listen to it.
- I'm not hearing anything.

419
00:22:19,588 --> 00:22:21,257
You would, though, if it were playing

420
00:22:21,423 --> 00:22:24,009
because it really...
It's famous for its sustain.

421
00:22:24,176 --> 00:22:26,416
- I mean, you can just hold it.
- I mean, so you don't...

422
00:22:28,013 --> 00:22:30,391
You could go and have a bite...

423
00:22:30,558 --> 00:22:31,838
You'd still be hearing that one.

424
00:22:31,892 --> 00:22:33,519
- Could you hold this a sec?
- Sure.

425
00:22:33,686 --> 00:22:34,937
This one...

426
00:22:35,104 --> 00:22:37,857
This is a custom three-pickup Paul.

427
00:22:38,023 --> 00:22:39,900
This is my radio unit.

428
00:22:40,067 --> 00:22:42,528
- Oh, I see.
- So I strap this piece on,

429
00:22:42,695 --> 00:22:45,030
you know, right down in here
when I'm on-stage...

430
00:22:45,197 --> 00:22:47,491
- It's a wireless.
- Wireless, exactly.

431
00:22:47,658 --> 00:22:49,535
And I can play without all the mucky-muck.

432
00:22:49,702 --> 00:22:51,787
- You can run anywhere on-stage with that.
- Exactly.

433
00:22:51,954 --> 00:22:53,622
This is special too, it's a...

434
00:22:53,789 --> 00:22:56,417
Look, see, still got the old tagger on it.

435
00:22:56,584 --> 00:22:57,918
Never even played it.

436
00:22:58,085 --> 00:23:00,254
- You just bought it and...
- Don't touch it.

437
00:23:00,421 --> 00:23:02,298
- I wasn't gonna touch it.
- No.

438
00:23:02,464 --> 00:23:04,508
- I was just pointing at it.
- Don't point, even.

439
00:23:04,675 --> 00:23:05,801
- Don't even point?
- No.

440
00:23:05,968 --> 00:23:07,928
It can't be played, never. I mean, I...

441
00:23:08,095 --> 00:23:09,388
- Can I look at it?
- No.

442
00:23:09,555 --> 00:23:10,806
You've seen enough of that one.

443
00:23:10,973 --> 00:23:13,225
This is a top to what we use on-stage,

444
00:23:13,392 --> 00:23:16,395
but it's very, very special
because if you can see...

445
00:23:16,562 --> 00:23:20,190
- Yeah.
- The numbers all go to 11.

446
00:23:20,357 --> 00:23:22,067
Look, right across the board.

447
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:24,111
- Ah, I see.
- Eleven, 11...

448
00:23:24,278 --> 00:23:26,322
And most of these amps
go up to ten.

449
00:23:26,488 --> 00:23:29,408
- Exactly.
- Does that mean it's louder?

450
00:23:29,575 --> 00:23:31,660
Well, it's one louder, isn't it?

451
00:23:31,827 --> 00:23:32,995
It's not ten.

452
00:23:33,162 --> 00:23:35,789
You see,
most blokes will be playing at ten.

453
00:23:35,956 --> 00:23:37,875
You're on ten here, all the way up.

454
00:23:38,042 --> 00:23:40,419
- Yeah.
- You're on ten on your guitar.

455
00:23:40,586 --> 00:23:42,504
Where can you go from there? Where?

456
00:23:43,172 --> 00:23:44,882
- I don't know.
- Nowhere. Exactly.

457
00:23:45,049 --> 00:23:48,427
What we do is, if we need
that extra push over the cliff,

458
00:23:48,594 --> 00:23:50,429
- you know what we do?
- Put it up to 11.

459
00:23:50,596 --> 00:23:52,222
Eleven. Exactly. One louder.

460
00:23:52,389 --> 00:23:53,933
Why don't you just make ten louder

461
00:23:54,099 --> 00:23:57,436
and make ten be the top number
and make that a little louder?

462
00:24:00,856 --> 00:24:02,191
These go to 11.

463
00:24:02,358 --> 00:24:04,443
Are you Spinal Tap?

464
00:24:04,610 --> 00:24:06,278
- Spinal Tap.
- Tap, Tap, Tap, Tap.

465
00:24:06,445 --> 00:24:09,156
Welcome to Memphis. We have
a slight problem with your reservation.

466
00:24:09,323 --> 00:24:11,043
- Nothing serious, I'm afraid.
- How slight?

467
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,786
- You wanted seven suites.
- Seven suites.

468
00:24:13,953 --> 00:24:17,039
Yes, he mistakenly put you
on the seventh floor with one suite...

469
00:24:17,206 --> 00:24:19,625
That's considerably more than minor.

470
00:24:19,792 --> 00:24:21,460
It's a good-sized room, sir.

471
00:24:21,627 --> 00:24:23,420
It's a "King Leisure." We can get you a...

472
00:24:23,587 --> 00:24:26,215
How are we going to get 14 people
in a King Leisure bed?

473
00:24:26,382 --> 00:24:28,717
- Don't tempt me, sir.
- Have a good time.

474
00:24:28,884 --> 00:24:30,052
I'll take care of it.

475
00:24:30,219 --> 00:24:32,554
Welcome, gentlemen.
Very attractive, they are, too.

476
00:24:32,721 --> 00:24:34,223
- Listen to me!
- Yes, sir.

477
00:24:34,390 --> 00:24:36,600
We want these suites now.
These people are tired...

478
00:24:36,767 --> 00:24:38,102
Yes, sir. We can help you.

479
00:24:38,268 --> 00:24:41,105
- Reba, give me a hand, please.
- What's the problem, sir?

480
00:24:41,271 --> 00:24:42,523
I'll tell you.

481
00:24:42,690 --> 00:24:46,610
This twisted, old fruit here tells me
you've not got my reservations.

482
00:24:46,777 --> 00:24:48,237
I'm just as God made me, sir.

483
00:24:48,404 --> 00:24:50,572
What's the difference
between golf and miniature golf?

484
00:24:50,739 --> 00:24:52,616
I think the balls.

485
00:24:52,783 --> 00:24:54,702
Uh-oh, look out, here they come...

486
00:24:54,868 --> 00:24:56,161
Duke! Duke!

487
00:24:58,330 --> 00:25:00,499
- Can I have your autograph?
- It's Duke.

488
00:25:00,666 --> 00:25:02,918
- Get your hands back.
- It's okay, we know him.

489
00:25:03,085 --> 00:25:04,545
- It's Spinal Tap.
- Sure.

490
00:25:04,712 --> 00:25:06,380
- David St. Hubbins.
- How you doing?

491
00:25:06,547 --> 00:25:08,090
Derek Smalls, Spinal Tap.

492
00:25:08,257 --> 00:25:10,759
- We gotta get going here.
- Where you playing in town?

493
00:25:10,926 --> 00:25:12,636
- You playing here?
- We're doin' the, uh,

494
00:25:12,803 --> 00:25:15,305
Enormo Dome, whatever it is.
It's terrific, a good house.

495
00:25:15,472 --> 00:25:17,272
- Big place outside of town.
- We sold it out.

496
00:25:17,307 --> 00:25:19,518
That's a big place. You sold it out.

497
00:25:19,685 --> 00:25:22,521
- We really should run.
- Good heavens!

498
00:25:22,688 --> 00:25:25,065
How are you, laddie?
Great to see you, Ter!

499
00:25:25,232 --> 00:25:27,109
- Terrific to see you.
- Um, Liam!

500
00:25:27,276 --> 00:25:29,445
- Ian. Ian.
- Ian. Yeah.

501
00:25:29,611 --> 00:25:33,657
We'd love to stand around and chat,
but we've gotta sit and wait for the limo.

502
00:25:33,824 --> 00:25:35,075
- Okay.
- Okay. Great.

503
00:25:35,242 --> 00:25:37,327
We'll catch up with you
on the road.

504
00:25:37,494 --> 00:25:40,372
Cheers.

505
00:25:40,539 --> 00:25:42,291
Great to see you. See you.

506
00:25:42,458 --> 00:25:44,334
- See you, Duke.
- Good days.

507
00:25:44,501 --> 00:25:46,754
- Fucking wanker.
- What a wanker.

508
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,505
- What a wanker.
- Total no-talent sod.

509
00:25:48,672 --> 00:25:51,383
- He's got this much talent.
- We carried him.

510
00:25:51,550 --> 00:25:54,136
- We had to apologize for him with our set.
- That's right.

511
00:25:54,303 --> 00:25:56,063
People were still booing him
when we were on.

512
00:25:56,180 --> 00:25:58,098
- It's all hype.
- It's all bought.

513
00:25:58,265 --> 00:26:01,643
- We got our rooms.
- Let me ask you something.

514
00:26:01,810 --> 00:26:04,354
Have you seen
Duke Fame's current album?

515
00:26:05,272 --> 00:26:07,858
- Um... Yes, yes.
- Have you seen the cover?

516
00:26:08,025 --> 00:26:09,693
Um... no, no, I don't think I have.

517
00:26:09,860 --> 00:26:11,403
It's a rather lurid cover.

518
00:26:11,570 --> 00:26:13,906
It's like naked women, and, uh...

519
00:26:14,073 --> 00:26:16,033
He's tied down to this table,

520
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,410
and he's got these whips,
and they're all semi-nude.

521
00:26:18,577 --> 00:26:21,121
- Knocking on him. It's much worse...
- What's the point?

522
00:26:21,288 --> 00:26:24,166
The point is, it's much worse
than <i>Smell the Glove.</i>

523
00:26:24,333 --> 00:26:27,086
- He releases that and he's number three.
- Because he's the victim.

524
00:26:27,252 --> 00:26:30,506
Their objections were
that she was the victim. You see.

525
00:26:30,672 --> 00:26:33,026
That's all right. If the singer's
the victim, it's different.

526
00:26:33,050 --> 00:26:35,636
- It's not sexist.
- He did a twist on it.

527
00:26:35,803 --> 00:26:38,472
We should have thought of that.
If we had all you guys tied up,

528
00:26:38,639 --> 00:26:40,265
that probably would have been fine.

529
00:26:40,432 --> 00:26:41,892
But it's still a stupid cover.

530
00:26:42,059 --> 00:26:44,770
It's such a fine line
between stupid and clever.

531
00:26:44,937 --> 00:26:46,563
Just that little turnabout...

532
00:26:46,730 --> 00:26:49,066
I have a small piece of bad news.

533
00:26:49,233 --> 00:26:52,986
Although it may not be that bad.
We're canceled here.

534
00:26:53,153 --> 00:26:54,905
- At the hotel?
- No, we're canceled...

535
00:26:55,072 --> 00:26:56,281
The gig is canceled.

536
00:26:57,032 --> 00:26:58,033
Fuck.

537
00:26:58,659 --> 00:27:03,497
Uh, it says, "Memphis show canceled
due to lack of advertising funds."

538
00:27:03,664 --> 00:27:06,291
The last time Tap toured America,
they were,

539
00:27:06,959 --> 00:27:09,753
uh, booked into 10,000-seat arenas,

540
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,505
and 15,000-seat venues,

541
00:27:12,089 --> 00:27:14,550
and it seems that now,
on the current tour,

542
00:27:14,716 --> 00:27:17,803
they're being booked
into 1200-seat arenas,

543
00:27:17,970 --> 00:27:20,472
1500-seat arenas,
and I was just wondering,

544
00:27:20,639 --> 00:27:23,600
does this mean the popularity
of the group is waning?

545
00:27:23,767 --> 00:27:26,520
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

546
00:27:26,687 --> 00:27:28,105
No, no, no, no. Not at all.

547
00:27:28,272 --> 00:27:29,690
I just think that the, uh,

548
00:27:29,857 --> 00:27:32,067
their appeal is becoming more selective.

549
00:27:32,234 --> 00:27:33,527
Ah.

550
00:27:33,694 --> 00:27:36,071
I notice this,
you got this cricket bat.

551
00:27:36,238 --> 00:27:37,531
- Yes.
- Do you play?

552
00:27:37,698 --> 00:27:40,242
No, I carry this partly out of, uh,

553
00:27:40,409 --> 00:27:42,035
I don't know, sort of, uh...

554
00:27:42,703 --> 00:27:45,914
Uh, I suppose... What's the word, uh...?

555
00:27:46,081 --> 00:27:47,624
- Affectation?
- Yes.

556
00:27:47,791 --> 00:27:50,252
I mean, it's a kind
of totemistic thing, you know.

557
00:27:50,419 --> 00:27:52,254
But to be quite frank with you,

558
00:27:52,421 --> 00:27:54,423
it's come in useful
in a couple of situations.

559
00:27:54,590 --> 00:27:57,259
<i>Certainly, in the topsy-turvy world
of heavy rock,</i>

560
00:27:57,426 --> 00:27:59,720
<i>having a good, solid piece
of wood in your hand</i>

561
00:27:59,887 --> 00:28:01,430
is quite often...

562
00:28:01,597 --> 00:28:02,723
- useful.
- Uh-huh.

563
00:28:02,890 --> 00:28:04,975
Oh, I miss you too, darling.

564
00:28:05,142 --> 00:28:07,477
Um, not too well, actually.

565
00:28:07,644 --> 00:28:09,484
Well, we've got some cancellations,
that's all.

566
00:28:09,646 --> 00:28:11,690
We got to Memphis,
and there's no gig in Memphis,

567
00:28:11,857 --> 00:28:14,443
and we find out
this promoter in the Midwest,

568
00:28:14,610 --> 00:28:18,322
uh, has pulled out St. Louis
and Kansas City,

569
00:28:18,488 --> 00:28:22,618
and, um... oh, Des Moines.

570
00:28:22,784 --> 00:28:24,703
I don't know,
it's in Indiana or something.

571
00:28:27,122 --> 00:28:28,123
I thought...

572
00:28:29,666 --> 00:28:31,210
Oh, don't tease me.

573
00:28:31,376 --> 00:28:33,795
That's not until April, great!

574
00:28:33,962 --> 00:28:36,632
We'll do it. Oh, fucking great, we'll...

575
00:28:37,257 --> 00:28:38,467
Milwaukee.

576
00:28:38,634 --> 00:28:40,302
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

577
00:28:40,802 --> 00:28:41,887
I have no idea.

578
00:28:42,054 --> 00:28:46,350
You might have to take a plane to New York
and then go to Milwaukee from there.

579
00:28:48,101 --> 00:28:51,438
Oh, good, I love you too. Okay, bye.

580
00:28:54,316 --> 00:28:55,943
Well, my problems are solved, mate.

581
00:28:56,109 --> 00:28:57,402
- Who's that?
- Jeanine.

582
00:28:57,569 --> 00:28:58,612
She's gonna come meet us.

583
00:28:58,779 --> 00:29:03,825
She was supposed to do this, uh,
window layout for Neil Kite's Boutique.

584
00:29:03,992 --> 00:29:06,870
- But it's not till April...
- She's coming to drop some stuff off?

585
00:29:07,037 --> 00:29:08,580
No, she's coming on the road.

586
00:29:08,747 --> 00:29:11,250
She's gonna travel with us,
gonna go on the road with us.

587
00:29:11,416 --> 00:29:13,460
- Turn it up!
- She says she can hear

588
00:29:13,627 --> 00:29:15,347
that I'm eating too much sugar
on the phone.

589
00:29:15,462 --> 00:29:17,172
She says my larynx is fat.

590
00:29:18,006 --> 00:29:19,841
You, uh, might want to come next door.

591
00:29:20,008 --> 00:29:22,094
The radio's playing a bit of your past.

592
00:29:24,304 --> 00:29:25,681
You happy for me?

593
00:29:30,394 --> 00:29:32,354
I don't believe it!

594
00:29:32,521 --> 00:29:33,689

And, also, we had the world's ear

00:31:41,191 --> 00:31:43,276
an enormous-selling single:

We toured the world, we toured the States.

644

During the "Flower People" period,
who was your drummer?

653
00:32:45,797 --> 00:32:47,966
Stumpy's replacement, Peter James Bond.

654
00:32:48,133 --> 00:32:51,136
He also died in mysterious circumstances.

655
00:32:51,303 --> 00:32:53,138
- We were playing a...
- Festival.

656
00:32:53,305 --> 00:32:55,974
- Jazz-blues festival, where was that?
- Blues-jazz, really.

657
00:32:56,141 --> 00:32:59,394
- Blues-jazz festival.
- It was in the Isle...

658
00:32:59,561 --> 00:33:01,771
- Isle of Lucy!
- Isle of Lucy.

659
00:33:01,938 --> 00:33:04,399
- Jazz-blues festival.
- It was tragic, really.

660
00:33:04,566 --> 00:33:06,359
He exploded on-stage.

661
00:33:07,611 --> 00:33:09,362
- Just like that.
- He just went up.

662
00:33:09,529 --> 00:33:11,781
He just was like a flash of green light.

663
00:33:13,366 --> 00:33:15,202
And that was it. Nothing was left.

664
00:33:15,368 --> 00:33:17,120
- Look at his face.
- There was...

665
00:33:17,287 --> 00:33:18,330
This really did happen.

666
00:33:18,497 --> 00:33:20,665
There was a little green globule
on his drum seat.

667
00:33:20,832 --> 00:33:22,042
Like a stain, really.

668
00:33:22,209 --> 00:33:24,127
More of a stain
than a globule, actually.

669
00:33:24,294 --> 00:33:26,254
You know, several...
You know, dozens of people

670

spontaneously combust each year.

671
00:33:28,882 --> 00:33:32,135

- Right.

Oh, it feels good.

695

Oh, I've been wanting to do that

I'm gonna carry you about with me.

00:34:54,259 --> 00:34:55,844
- All right?
- What? They're filming?

698
00:34:56,011 --> 00:34:57,846
That's the film crew I told you about.

699
00:34:58,013 --> 00:35:00,140
It's the film crew. Martin.

700
00:35:00,307 --> 00:35:01,547
- Hi, Martin.
- This is Jeanine.

701
00:35:01,641 --> 00:35:02,809
- Hello.
- Hello.

702
00:35:03,935 --> 00:35:05,729
- Here it is!
- Visitors' Day, isn't it?

703
00:35:05,895 --> 00:35:07,689
- Here it is, lads.

704
00:35:07,856 --> 00:35:09,691
<i>Smell the Glove,</i> me old beauties.

705
00:35:09,858 --> 00:35:12,444
- Oh, really?
- Gather round. Where's David?

706
00:35:12,611 --> 00:35:14,446
David, David, get up here.

707
00:35:15,238 --> 00:35:17,490
David, <i>Smell the Glove</i> is here.

708
00:35:17,657 --> 00:35:20,285
- Hello, Jeanine.
- The moment we've been waiting for.

709
00:35:20,452 --> 00:35:21,870
I thought I'd never...

710
00:35:22,037 --> 00:35:24,331
- I never thought I'd live to see the day.
- Here we go.

711
00:35:24,497 --> 00:35:25,874
Plenty for everybody.

712
00:35:27,125 --> 00:35:29,419
- What do you think?
- Is this the test pressing?

713
00:35:29,586 --> 00:35:31,087
No, this is it. Yes, that's right.

714
00:35:31,254 --> 00:35:32,839
This is <i>Smell the Glove</i> by Spinal Tap?

715
00:35:33,006 --> 00:35:36,092
That's <i>Smell the Glove.</i>
That's the jacket cover

716
00:35:36,259 --> 00:35:38,011
that's going out across the country...

717
00:35:38,178 --> 00:35:39,554
This is the compromise you made?

718
00:35:39,721 --> 00:35:41,765
Is it going to say anything here?

719
00:35:41,931 --> 00:35:44,768
- It's not gonna say anything.
- It's just gonna be all black?

720
00:35:44,934 --> 00:35:47,228
Simple, beautiful, classic.

721
00:35:47,395 --> 00:35:49,147
It does look like black leather.

722
00:35:49,314 --> 00:35:51,232
You can see yourself in both sides.

723
00:35:51,399 --> 00:35:52,942
I wouldn't feel so bad...

724
00:35:53,109 --> 00:35:54,653
It's like a black mirror.

725
00:35:54,819 --> 00:35:56,613
I think it looks like death.

726
00:35:56,780 --> 00:35:58,281
It looks like mourning.

727
00:35:58,448 --> 00:36:01,326
Every movie in every cinema
is about death.

728
00:36:01,493 --> 00:36:02,619
Death sells.

729
00:36:02,786 --> 00:36:05,580
I think he's right.
There is something about this

730
00:36:05,747 --> 00:36:08,875
that's so black, it's like,
"How much more black could this be?"

731
00:36:09,042 --> 00:36:12,545
And the answer is,
"None, none more black."

732
00:36:12,712 --> 00:36:14,923
I think you're rationalizing
this whole thing

733
00:36:15,090 --> 00:36:17,884
into something that you did on purpose.

734
00:36:18,051 --> 00:36:20,428
I think we're stuck
with a very, very stupid

735
00:36:20,595 --> 00:36:22,639
and a very dismal-looking album.

736
00:36:22,806 --> 00:36:25,392
This is depressing. This is something
you wear around your arm.

737
00:36:25,558 --> 00:36:28,520
- You don't put this on your turntable.
- David, it's a choice.

738
00:36:28,687 --> 00:36:32,482
I think this is the turning point, okay?
I think this is... We're on our way now.

739
00:36:32,649 --> 00:36:34,901
- I agree, I agree.
- It's time to kick ass!

00:39:24,779 --> 00:39:27,031
When I did join,
you know, they did tell me,

761
00:39:27,198 --> 00:39:30,034
they kind of took me aside
and said "Well, Mick, ah,

762
00:39:30,201 --> 00:39:31,411
you know, it's like this."

763
00:39:32,161 --> 00:39:34,539
<i>And it did kind of freak me out a bit.</i>

764
00:39:34,706 --> 00:39:36,082
<i>But it can't</i>

765
00:39:36,249 --> 00:39:37,750
always happen...

766
00:39:37,917 --> 00:39:39,836
- Right. Right.
- ...to every... Can it?

767
00:39:40,003 --> 00:39:42,422
The law of averages says
you will survive.

768
00:39:42,589 --> 00:39:43,589
Yeah.

769
00:39:47,135 --> 00:39:49,137
Oh, quite exciting.

770
00:39:50,221 --> 00:39:52,932
Quite exciting, this computer magic.

771
00:39:53,099 --> 00:39:54,517
Whee!

772
00:39:54,684 --> 00:39:56,895
How many planets
have you destroyed?

773
00:39:57,061 --> 00:39:59,063
Well, fourth or fifth time around,
I think.

774
00:39:59,230 --> 00:40:02,358
We're doing really fine.
A few galaxies gone, you know.

775
00:40:04,819 --> 00:40:06,863
This is Cindy's first mustache.

776
00:40:07,030 --> 00:40:09,657
Is it?

777
00:40:09,824 --> 00:40:12,452
- Can I take it off now?
- Why? Too hot in here?

778
00:40:12,619 --> 00:40:14,203
No, it's, um...

779
00:40:14,370 --> 00:40:17,373
I thought I might go back to see
what they're up to back there.

780
00:40:17,540 --> 00:40:20,752
I don't think they need to see this
until you're finished with it, you know.

781
00:40:20,919 --> 00:40:22,712
You were reading. You can read here.

782
00:40:22,879 --> 00:40:24,964
- Here you go.
- Yeah, but...

783
00:40:25,131 --> 00:40:26,633
They've got a game back there,

784
00:40:26,799 --> 00:40:30,219
I thought I'd maybe have
a look at the new game.

785
00:40:30,386 --> 00:40:31,804
It's like a submarine thing.

786
00:40:31,971 --> 00:40:34,349
You've got all stuff over you again.

787
00:40:34,515 --> 00:40:37,644
<i>Before I met Jeanine,
my life was cosmically a shambles.</i>

788
00:40:37,810 --> 00:40:40,063
<i>It was, uh...
I was using bits and pieces</i>

789
00:40:40,229 --> 00:40:43,316
<i>of whatever Eastern philosophies
happened to drift through my transom.</i>

790
00:40:44,067 --> 00:40:46,402
And, uh, she sort of sorted it out for me,

791
00:40:46,569 --> 00:40:48,655
straightened it out for me,
gave me a path.

792
00:40:48,821 --> 00:40:49,864
A path to follow.

793
00:40:50,031 --> 00:40:52,241
I wonder
if you have as much influence

794
00:40:52,408 --> 00:40:54,369
- over his musical expression?
- Oh, yeah.

795
00:40:54,535 --> 00:40:57,080
I mean, I listen to him
when he's experimenting

796
00:40:57,246 --> 00:40:59,082
and things like that, don't I?

797
00:40:59,248 --> 00:41:03,378
He's, uh... He plays things to me
sometimes when he's worked up.

798
00:41:03,544 --> 00:41:06,214
He's got a new bit
that he wants to tell me about.

799
00:41:06,381 --> 00:41:08,508
You know, and I say "that's good,"
or "that's bad,"

800
00:41:08,675 --> 00:41:11,302
or "that's shit," or whatever, you know.

801
00:41:11,469 --> 00:41:14,555
Yes, she's very honest.
She's brutally frank.

802
00:41:14,722 --> 00:41:17,684
How does that go over
with the other band members?

803
00:41:17,850 --> 00:41:20,520
Well, what happens is,
she gives me the brutally frank version,

804
00:41:20,687 --> 00:41:22,480
and I sort of tart it up for them.

805
00:41:22,647 --> 00:41:24,148
- Yeah.
- And, of course,

806
00:41:24,315 --> 00:41:28,695
it's so strange because Nigel
and Jeanine are so similar

807
00:41:28,861 --> 00:41:31,155
in so many ways, but they just can't...

808
00:41:32,031 --> 00:41:33,700
They don't dislike each other at all.

809
00:41:33,866 --> 00:41:35,868
There's great love
between the two of them.

810
00:41:36,035 --> 00:41:39,163
But there's some sort of communication
that's just not...

811
00:41:39,330 --> 00:41:40,623
It's just blocked or something.

812
00:41:56,889 --> 00:41:59,183
- It's pretty.
- Yeah, I like it.

813
00:41:59,767 --> 00:42:01,894
Just been fooling about with it
for a few months now.

814
00:42:02,895 --> 00:42:03,938
Very delicate.

815
00:42:04,564 --> 00:42:06,816
It's a bit of a departure

816
00:42:06,983 --> 00:42:09,610
from the kind of thing you normally play.

817
00:42:09,777 --> 00:42:12,405
Yeah, well,
it's part of a trilogy, really.

818
00:42:12,572 --> 00:42:14,323
A musical trilogy that I'm doing...

819
00:42:15,324 --> 00:42:16,909
in D minor,

820
00:42:17,076 --> 00:42:21,080
which I always find is really
the saddest of all keys, really.

821
00:42:21,247 --> 00:42:24,042
I don't know why, but it makes
people weep instantly, you play:

822
00:42:27,462 --> 00:42:28,838
- It's a horn part.
- Mm.

823
00:42:29,005 --> 00:42:31,174
It's very pretty.

824
00:42:33,009 --> 00:42:36,179
Yeah, just simple lines intertwining,

825
00:42:36,345 --> 00:42:39,849
you know, very much like,
I'm really influenced by Mozart and Bach,

826
00:42:40,016 --> 00:42:41,601
and it's sort of in between those.

827
00:42:41,768 --> 00:42:43,227
It's like a "Mach" piece, really.

828
00:42:43,394 --> 00:42:44,854
What do you call this?

829
00:42:45,021 --> 00:42:47,356
Well, this piece is called
"Lick My Love Pump."

830
00:42:53,362 --> 00:42:54,906
Excuse me, sir,

831
00:42:55,073 --> 00:42:56,753
do you have metal objects in your pockets?

832
00:42:56,824 --> 00:42:58,824
- Yeah.
- Take them out and put them in the bucket.

833
00:43:00,286 --> 00:43:01,871
Coins, keys.

834
00:43:06,042 --> 00:43:07,376
Tuning fork.

835
00:43:08,044 --> 00:43:11,255
Musician, I like to stay in tune,
you know. There you go.

836
00:43:12,381 --> 00:43:13,716
Be a moment.

837
00:43:13,883 --> 00:43:15,468
Oh, okay.

838
00:43:15,635 --> 00:43:16,844
One more.

839
00:43:17,011 --> 00:43:18,679
Can you take this jacket off, please?

840
00:43:18,846 --> 00:43:21,557
Oh, it's the zipper setting off
the machine.

841
00:43:21,724 --> 00:43:24,018
Let's go, then.
Let's go, hurry up.

842
00:43:25,853 --> 00:43:27,396
What?

843
00:43:27,563 --> 00:43:29,482
Step over here, please.

844
00:43:29,649 --> 00:43:31,359
- Troublemaker.
- Raise your arms.

845
00:43:51,796 --> 00:43:54,048
Do you have any artificial plates
or limbs?

846
00:43:54,590 --> 00:43:55,633
Not really, no.

847
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,511
Um, would you, um...

848
00:43:58,678 --> 00:43:59,720
Yeah. Do it.

849
00:43:59,887 --> 00:44:01,722

{\an8}<i>Hi, Artie Fufkin.</i>

862
00:45:39,570 --> 00:45:41,322
{\an8}<i>Polymer Records, how are you?</i>

863
00:45:41,489 --> 00:45:44,242
- Hey, how are you? You are?
- Derek.

864
00:45:44,408 --> 00:45:46,369
Artie Fufkin, Polymer Records.
How are you?

865
00:45:46,535 --> 00:45:48,415
- I'm your promo man in Chicago.
- Hello, Artie.

866
00:45:48,579 --> 00:45:49,789
- I love you guys.
- Yeah.

867
00:45:49,956 --> 00:45:51,707
- And, of course, Nigel.
- Nigel.

868
00:45:51,874 --> 00:45:53,209
I love you, Nigel Tufnel.

869
00:45:53,376 --> 00:45:54,502
- Right.
- I love your stuff.

870
00:45:54,669 --> 00:45:56,462
I go back with you guys. Boy, do I.

871
00:45:56,629 --> 00:45:59,340
Artie Fufkin, Polymer Records.
I love you. And who are you?

872
00:45:59,507 --> 00:46:01,342
Oh, this is my special new friend, Cindy.

873
00:46:01,509 --> 00:46:03,177
- Hello, Cindy.
- And this is Belinda.

874
00:46:03,344 --> 00:46:05,680
- Hello, Belinda.
- Artie Fufkin, Polymer Records.

875
00:46:05,846 --> 00:46:08,766
Promo. And I...
Oh, what's going on here? Hi.

876
00:46:08,933 --> 00:46:11,185
Hi, guys. Artie Fufkin, Polymer Records.

877
00:46:11,352 --> 00:46:13,521
{\an8}Nice to see you. And where is David?

878
00:46:13,688 --> 00:46:17,233
{\an8}Oh, David. Hi, Artie Fufkin, how are you?

879
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,944
We've got something
exciting happening tomorrow.

880
00:46:20,111 --> 00:46:21,946
- The food!
- Yay!

881
00:46:22,113 --> 00:46:25,157
- The food!
- Oh, thank God! Civilization!

882
00:46:25,324 --> 00:46:26,324
Where do I put this?

883
00:46:52,727 --> 00:46:54,854
- What are you doing to me here?
- Nothing.

884
00:46:55,021 --> 00:46:57,398
I thought we had a relationship.
I don't know what happened.

885
00:46:57,565 --> 00:47:00,026
Business is terrible, Artie.
What can I tell you?

886
00:47:00,192 --> 00:47:02,486
I know, but what happens
with the record store,

887
00:47:02,653 --> 00:47:04,613
with the promotion,
and no one shows up?

888
00:47:04,780 --> 00:47:06,866
This isn't a personal thing.
Nobody's coming.

889
00:47:07,033 --> 00:47:09,285
Forget personal.
We had a relationship.

890
00:47:09,452 --> 00:47:10,828
What about a relationship?

891
00:47:12,663 --> 00:47:13,914
I feel like a schlub.

892
00:47:14,081 --> 00:47:15,875
And I don't know what's happening.

893
00:47:16,042 --> 00:47:17,585
It's me. That's what is happening.

894
00:47:17,752 --> 00:47:19,420
It's me. I did it.

895
00:47:19,587 --> 00:47:20,796
It's my fault. I know.

896
00:47:20,963 --> 00:47:22,798
We were told massive radio support.

897
00:47:22,965 --> 00:47:24,884
- We did. We did massive.
- Vast radio support.

898
00:47:25,051 --> 00:47:27,887
- We saturated. We oversaturated.
- Vast radio support.

899
00:47:28,054 --> 00:47:31,474
It's me. I did it. I fucked up.
I fucked up the timing.

900
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:34,268
I fucked up the timing,
I've got no timing, no timing.

901
00:47:34,435 --> 00:47:36,437
Will you do something for me?

902
00:47:36,604 --> 00:47:38,314
- What?
- Do me a favor.

903
00:47:38,481 --> 00:47:40,232
Just kick my ass, okay?

904
00:47:40,399 --> 00:47:43,235
Kick this ass for a man.
That's all. Kick my ass.

905
00:47:43,402 --> 00:47:44,695
- No.
- Enjoy.

906
00:47:44,862 --> 00:47:47,573
I'm not asking.
I'm telling with this. Kick my ass.

907
00:47:50,117 --> 00:47:54,163
{\an8}<i>Tap! Tap! Tap!</i>

908
00:48:00,002 --> 00:48:02,630
We've kept 'em waiting
long enough. Let's do it to 'em.

909
00:48:03,422 --> 00:48:05,758
Come on, Mick!

910
00:48:05,925 --> 00:48:07,635
Let's go, Mr. Shrimpton!

911
00:48:07,802 --> 00:48:09,303
Rock 'n' roll!

912
00:48:13,641 --> 00:48:15,601
Let's hear some rock 'n' roll!

913
00:48:15,768 --> 00:48:17,770
- Rock 'n' roll!
- Let's go then!

914
00:48:17,937 --> 00:48:19,563
Yeah.

915
00:48:19,730 --> 00:48:22,024
Yeah, mate.

916
00:48:22,191 --> 00:48:23,818
Gonna be a hot one, isn't it?

917
00:48:23,984 --> 00:48:26,737
- Gonna be a great show.
- No, it's not an exit.

918
00:48:26,904 --> 00:48:29,073
- We don't want an exit.
- Try this way.

919
00:48:29,240 --> 00:48:30,408
I hope so.

920
00:48:30,574 --> 00:48:32,410
- Yeah, this way.
- Yeah. Let's go.

921
00:48:36,580 --> 00:48:38,499
Um... Wait.

922
00:48:38,666 --> 00:48:40,668
- This looks familiar, though.
- Listen.

923
00:48:41,919 --> 00:48:44,672
<i>Tap! Tap! Tap!</i>

924
00:48:45,756 --> 00:48:46,841
Shit!

925
00:48:49,635 --> 00:48:51,804
Let's not lose it, though!
Let's not lose it!

926
00:48:51,971 --> 00:48:53,973
Where the fuck is Ian? He should be here.

927
00:48:54,140 --> 00:48:56,892
<i>Tap! Tap! Tap!</i>

928
00:48:57,059 --> 00:48:58,936
We got to get to it some way.

929
00:48:59,103 --> 00:49:00,771
We've been on-stage, right?

930
00:49:03,023 --> 00:49:06,068
We're in the group
that's playing tonight.

931
00:49:06,235 --> 00:49:08,237
You go right straight
through this door here,

932
00:49:08,404 --> 00:49:11,198
- down the hall, turn right.
- Yeah. Yeah.

933
00:49:11,365 --> 00:49:14,493
And then there's a little jog there,
about 30 feet.

934
00:49:14,660 --> 00:49:16,471
- Jog to the left.
- We don't have time for that.

935
00:49:16,495 --> 00:49:18,706
- Go straight ahead.
- We trust you.

936
00:49:18,873 --> 00:49:21,292
Turn right,
the next two corners,

937
00:49:21,459 --> 00:49:24,628
and the first door, the sign
"Authorized Personnel Only,"

938
00:49:24,795 --> 00:49:25,838
open that door.

939
00:49:26,005 --> 00:49:27,465
- That's the stage.
- You think so?

940
00:49:27,631 --> 00:49:29,925
You're authorized.
You're musicians, aren't you?

941
00:49:30,092 --> 00:49:31,969
All right, thank you. Thank you very much.

942
00:49:32,136 --> 00:49:33,262
Rock 'n' roll!

943
00:49:34,180 --> 00:49:35,514
Rock 'n' roll!

944
00:49:35,681 --> 00:49:37,308
- Let's get it!
- Hey!

945
00:49:37,475 --> 00:49:38,559
This way?

946
00:49:38,726 --> 00:49:40,519
- No, this way.
- I see, this way.

947
00:49:40,686 --> 00:49:42,521
Straight through. Rock 'n' roll!

948
00:49:42,688 --> 00:49:46,108
Hello, Cleveland! Hello, Cleveland!

949
00:49:46,275 --> 00:49:48,360
- Let's go!
- Fuck!

950
00:49:50,196 --> 00:49:51,447
You must've made a wrong turn.

951
00:49:51,614 --> 00:49:54,909
- We gotta go another way.
- Other way.

952
00:49:55,075 --> 00:49:57,161
Other way. Other way.

953
00:49:57,703 --> 00:49:59,371
<i>I hate to keep harping on this,</i>

954
00:49:59,538 --> 00:50:02,458
<i>but the notion of a black album
has really cursed us, in a way.</i>

955
00:50:02,625 --> 00:50:04,960
<i>We're getting
substantial reports of airplay.</i>

956
00:50:05,127 --> 00:50:07,046
I don't think we have to worry about that.

957
00:50:07,213 --> 00:50:11,342
It might have been better
if the, uh, album had been mixed right.

958
00:50:11,509 --> 00:50:14,136
I suppose you could cry about that.
Of course, it's true.

959
00:50:14,303 --> 00:50:16,013
- I mean, it's true.
- It wasn't...

960
00:50:16,180 --> 00:50:17,848
It was mixed all wrong, wasn't it?

961
00:50:18,015 --> 00:50:19,725
It was mixed wrong? Were you there?

962
00:50:19,892 --> 00:50:22,520
But she's heard the record.

963
00:50:22,686 --> 00:50:24,897
So your judgment is, it was mixed wrong.

964
00:50:25,064 --> 00:50:26,774
You couldn't hear the lyrics.

965
00:50:26,941 --> 00:50:28,651
You don't agree
you can't hear the vocals?

966
00:50:28,817 --> 00:50:30,319
No, I do not agree.

967
00:50:30,486 --> 00:50:31,922
- I think maybe...
- It's interesting

968
00:50:31,946 --> 00:50:33,364
she's bringing it up.

969
00:50:33,531 --> 00:50:36,534
- She'd like to hear the vocals.
- It's like me saying, you know,

970
00:50:36,700 --> 00:50:39,286
you're using the wrong conditioner
for your hair.

971
00:50:39,453 --> 00:50:41,539
- Don't be stupid.
- It looks sort of frizzy.

972
00:50:41,705 --> 00:50:44,291
You don't do heavy metal
in dobly, you know.

973
00:50:44,458 --> 00:50:46,377
- I mean, it's...
- In what? In what?

974
00:50:46,544 --> 00:50:48,504
- What?
- "Dobly."

975
00:50:48,671 --> 00:50:51,507
- In dobly, I mean, you can't...
- In dobly? What's that?

976
00:50:51,674 --> 00:50:53,968
She means Dolby.
You know perfectly well.

977
00:50:55,052 --> 00:50:57,596
We shan't recover from this one.

978
00:50:57,763 --> 00:50:58,763
Oh, come on.

979
00:50:58,889 --> 00:51:00,933
Can I have the floor for just one moment

980
00:51:01,100 --> 00:51:04,061
because I've got something
I'd like to show you.

981
00:51:04,228 --> 00:51:07,064
These, uh... Jeanine's been working
on these very hard.

982
00:51:07,231 --> 00:51:08,440
These are a new direction...

983
00:51:08,607 --> 00:51:10,693
Got a new idea
for a new presentation.

984
00:51:10,859 --> 00:51:14,572
A stage look of the band fashioned
after the signs of the zodiac.

985
00:51:14,738 --> 00:51:17,658
- We needed a new presence.
- This is a look for Viv. He's a Libra.

986
00:51:17,825 --> 00:51:19,743
There's sort of the yin-yang...

987
00:51:19,910 --> 00:51:22,162
- Yin and the yang.
- ...sort of look.

988
00:51:22,329 --> 00:51:25,291
This is Nigel. He's a Capricorn.

989
00:51:25,457 --> 00:51:27,751
- Sort of a goat look.
- I've given you a little bib.

990
00:51:27,918 --> 00:51:30,087
- Is this a joke?
- This is...

991
00:51:30,254 --> 00:51:31,755
Excuse me, is this a joke?

992
00:51:31,922 --> 00:51:33,924
Just bear with us for one moment.

993
00:51:34,091 --> 00:51:36,885
This. I love this.
I wish I were Cancer the Crab.

994
00:51:37,052 --> 00:51:39,597
- Oh, that's attractive.
- This is your crab face.

995
00:51:39,763 --> 00:51:41,682
Give it a chance. Give it a chance.

996
00:51:41,849 --> 00:51:43,267
- And this is...
- David's a lion.

997
00:51:43,434 --> 00:51:45,394
Wait, please, wait a minute.

998
00:51:45,561 --> 00:51:48,439
Have you any idea what it will cost...

999
00:51:49,607 --> 00:51:51,191
to dress up the band as animals?

1000
00:51:51,358 --> 00:51:53,044
- It don't cost nothing.
- They're not animals.

1001
00:51:53,068 --> 00:51:54,236
They're signs of the zodiac.

1002
00:51:54,403 --> 00:51:57,656
It's a way to fight the drabs.
You know, we've got the drabs.

1003
00:51:57,823 --> 00:52:00,659
Well, that's true. I think mine
would look better in "dobly."

1004
00:52:00,826 --> 00:52:02,411
If it was done in dobly.

1005
00:52:02,578 --> 00:52:04,913
- Oh, shut up.
- I knew it wouldn't be easy.

1006
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,875
- I'm quite open-minded.
- David. No, no, David.

1007
00:52:08,042 --> 00:52:10,919
There are solutions to our problems.
We know what they are.

1008
00:52:11,086 --> 00:52:14,173
- I've yet to hear them.
- Well, it'll be a week...

1009
00:52:14,340 --> 00:52:17,176
We can take a rational approach,
and we can say...

1010
00:52:17,343 --> 00:52:19,845
- May I make a suggestion?
- Well, let's hear yours.

1011
00:52:20,012 --> 00:52:23,307
- Let's hear your suggestion.
- Stonehenge. Stonehenge.

1012
00:52:23,891 --> 00:52:26,051
It's the best production value
we've ever had on-stage.

1013
00:52:26,143 --> 00:52:28,562
We haven't got the equipment.
We haven't got Stonehenge.

1014
00:52:28,729 --> 00:52:31,565
Not yet, we don't. Let's start...
Please, just a moment.

1015
00:52:31,732 --> 00:52:33,817
- Musically, we all know it.
- We know it works.

1016
00:52:33,984 --> 00:52:35,819
I don't think it's a bad idea.

1017
00:52:35,986 --> 00:52:37,488
No problems musically.

1018
00:52:37,655 --> 00:52:40,324
We go right on-stage.
And it's quite simple.

1019
00:52:40,491 --> 00:52:43,369
This is, you know,
Ian can take care of this, it's...

1020
00:52:43,535 --> 00:52:45,375
I know what
the Stonehenge monument looks like.

1021
00:52:45,412 --> 00:52:47,132
We don't have
that piece of scenery anymore.

1022
00:52:47,289 --> 00:52:48,957
So we build a new one.

1023
00:52:50,417 --> 00:52:53,629
- And this is it, look.
- Consider... Consider it done.

1024
00:52:54,421 --> 00:52:56,191
So you're gonna
just take care of it like that?

1025
00:52:56,215 --> 00:52:59,009
You'll find someone to design it
using that as a plan?

1026
00:52:59,176 --> 00:53:00,886
If you can do it, I'll do the number.

1027
00:53:01,053 --> 00:53:04,306
Do you feel that,
in collaboration with David,

1028
00:53:04,473 --> 00:53:06,892
that you are afforded the opportunity

1029
00:53:07,059 --> 00:53:10,145
to express yourself musically
the way you would like to?

1030
00:53:10,312 --> 00:53:12,481
Well, I think I do, you know, in my solos.

1031
00:53:12,648 --> 00:53:14,191
- Yeah.
- My solos are my trademark.

1032
00:54:00,028 --> 00:54:03,490
This looks absolutely perfect.
It's the right proportion.

1033
00:54:03,657 --> 00:54:04,867
It'll be this color, right?

1034
00:54:05,033 --> 00:54:06,033
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

1035
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:07,453
- Yeah.
- That's just terrific.

1036
00:54:07,619 --> 00:54:09,413
It almost looks like the real thing.

1037
00:54:09,580 --> 00:54:11,081
- Got it.
- Yeah.

1038
00:54:11,248 --> 00:54:15,294
When we get the actual, uh, set,
it'll follow exactly these specifications.

1039
00:54:15,461 --> 00:54:17,045
Even these contours and everything.

1040
00:54:17,212 --> 00:54:18,839
Um, I'm not understanding.

1041
00:54:19,006 --> 00:54:20,883
Uh, what do you mean, "the actual piece"?

1042
00:54:21,049 --> 00:54:23,218
Well, I mean,
when you build the actual piece.

1043
00:54:23,385 --> 00:54:25,721
But this is what you asked for, isn't it?

1044
00:54:25,888 --> 00:54:26,888
What?

1045
00:54:27,514 --> 00:54:28,640
Well, this is the piece.

1046
00:54:28,807 --> 00:54:30,768
- This is the piece?
- Yes.

1047
00:54:30,934 --> 00:54:33,270
Are you telling me that this is it?

1048
00:54:33,979 --> 00:54:35,105
This is scenery?

1049
00:54:35,898 --> 00:54:37,649
Have you ever been to Stonehenge?

1050
00:54:37,816 --> 00:54:40,819
- No, I haven't been to Stonehenge.
- The triptychs are 20 feet high.

1051
00:54:40,986 --> 00:54:43,322
- You can stand four men up them.
- Ian, I was...

1052
00:54:43,489 --> 00:54:45,824
This is insane!
This isn't a piece of scenery.

1053
00:54:45,991 --> 00:54:48,952
Look, look, this is what
I was asked to build.

1054
00:54:49,119 --> 00:54:52,164
Eighteen inches. Right here,
it specifies 18 inches.

1055
00:54:52,915 --> 00:54:54,625
I was given this napkin. I mean...

1056
00:54:54,792 --> 00:54:56,418
Forget this! Fuck the napkin!

1057
00:55:01,548 --> 00:55:03,759
In ancient times,

1058
00:55:05,636 --> 00:55:09,389
hundreds of years
before the dawn of history,

1059
00:55:11,225 --> 00:55:13,894
lived an ancient race of people...

1060
00:55:16,772 --> 00:55:17,940
the Druids.

1061
00:55:28,158 --> 00:55:30,953
No one knows who they were...

1062
00:55:32,538 --> 00:55:35,916
or what they were doing.

1063
00:55:38,502 --> 00:55:40,712
But their legacy remains,

1064
00:55:42,464 --> 00:55:46,635
hewn into the living rock

1065
00:55:47,845 --> 00:55:49,263

And, oh, how they danced,

1080
00:57:07,841 --> 00:57:10,260
the little children of Stonehenge,

1081
00:57:11,678 --> 00:57:14,723
beneath the haunted moon,

1082
00:57:15,641 --> 00:57:22,189
for fear that daybreak
might come too soon.

1083
00:57:44,211 --> 00:57:47,089
I do not, for one, think the problem was
that the band was down.

1084
00:57:47,255 --> 00:57:48,840
I think that the problem may have been

1085
00:57:49,007 --> 00:57:51,343
that there was a Stonehenge monument
on the stage

1086
00:57:51,510 --> 00:57:54,554
that was in danger
of being crushed by a dwarf.

1087
00:57:54,721 --> 00:57:58,558
All right? That tended to understate
the hugeness of the object.

1088
00:57:58,725 --> 00:58:01,269
I really think you're making
much too big thing out of it.

1089
00:58:01,436 --> 00:58:03,689
Making a big thing out of
it would've been good.

1090
00:58:03,855 --> 00:58:06,400
Nigel gave me a drawing
that said 18 inches.

1091
00:58:06,566 --> 00:58:07,566
I know he did...

1092
00:58:07,651 --> 00:58:09,671
Whether he knows the difference
between feet and inches

1093
00:58:09,695 --> 00:58:10,821
is not my problem.

1094
00:58:10,988 --> 00:58:11,988
I do what I'm told.

1095
00:58:12,114 --> 00:58:14,116
But you're not as confused as him,
are you?

1096
00:58:14,282 --> 00:58:16,618
I mean, it's not your job
to be as confused as Nigel.

1097
00:58:16,785 --> 00:58:20,122
It's my job to do what I'm asked
by the creative element of this band.

1098
00:58:20,288 --> 00:58:22,958
- And that's what I did.
- The audience were laughing.

1099
00:58:23,125 --> 00:58:26,128
- So it became a comedy number...
- Yes, it fucking well did!

1100
00:58:26,294 --> 00:58:29,047
And it was not pleasant to be part
of the comedy on-stage.

1101
00:58:29,214 --> 00:58:31,383
Backstage, perhaps, it was very amusing.

1102
00:58:31,550 --> 00:58:33,468
Maybe we just fix
the choreography.

1103
00:58:33,635 --> 00:58:34,720
Keep the dwarf clear.

1104
00:58:35,721 --> 00:58:38,181
- What do you mean?
- So he won't trod upon it.

1105
00:58:38,348 --> 00:58:39,933
I don't think that's the issue.

1106
00:58:40,100 --> 00:58:44,062
I think it's symptomatic that maybe
you're taking on more than you can, uh,

1107
00:58:44,229 --> 00:58:45,272
uh, handle.

1108
00:58:45,856 --> 00:58:48,900
It's not exactly the first time
you've messed things up, is it?

1109
00:58:49,067 --> 00:58:51,445
I mean, there's been
some, uh, gaping holes

1110
00:58:51,611 --> 00:58:53,780
in the business end of this...

1111
00:58:53,947 --> 00:58:56,158
Excuse me.
This is a band meeting, right?

1112
00:58:56,825 --> 00:58:58,970
- Are you here for some reason?
- Don't worry about it.

1113
00:58:58,994 --> 00:58:59,745
She's with me.

1114
00:58:59,911 --> 00:59:02,330
No, but is she now in the band?
Is she singing backup?

1115
00:59:02,497 --> 00:59:04,416
I care what happens to the band.

1116
00:59:04,583 --> 00:59:08,003
David, whenever a single bump or
a ruffle comes into this little fantasy,

1117
00:59:08,170 --> 00:59:11,465
adolescent fantasy world
you guys have built around yourselves,

1118
00:59:11,631 --> 00:59:14,801
you start screaming like
a bunch of poncy hairdressers.

1119
00:59:14,968 --> 00:59:17,304
I mean, it's just a problem, you know.

1120
00:59:17,471 --> 00:59:19,389
- It gets solved.
- It doesn't.

1121
00:59:19,556 --> 00:59:20,766
You can't live in a bubble.

1122
00:59:20,932 --> 00:59:22,726
If it got solved,
that would be all right.

1123
00:59:22,893 --> 00:59:25,604
But it doesn't get solved.
What do you think happened out there?

1124
00:59:25,771 --> 00:59:28,482
- What got solved tonight?
- For one thing that goes wrong,

1125
00:59:28,648 --> 00:59:31,234
one thing that goes wrong,
a hundred things go right.

1126
00:59:31,401 --> 00:59:33,278
Do you know what I spend my time doing?

1127
00:59:33,445 --> 00:59:35,530
I sleep two or three hours a night.

1128
00:59:35,697 --> 00:59:37,449
There's no sex and drugs for Ian, David.

1129
00:59:37,616 --> 00:59:39,493
You know what I do? I find lost luggage.

1130
00:59:39,659 --> 00:59:41,495
- Yes.
- I locate mandolin strings

1131
00:59:41,661 --> 00:59:43,205
in the middle of Austin!

1132
00:59:43,371 --> 00:59:45,248
I prize the rent out of the local Hebrews.

1133
00:59:45,415 --> 00:59:48,001
Maybe get someone else
to find the lost luggage,

1134
00:59:48,168 --> 00:59:50,754
and you should concentrate
on what's going on on-stage.

1135
00:59:50,921 --> 00:59:53,066
- That's what we're talking about.
- Like the road manager?

1136
00:59:53,090 --> 00:59:55,383
No! All bad, but...

1137
00:59:55,550 --> 00:59:57,552
What Dave is trying to say,

1138
00:59:57,719 --> 01:00:00,305
if you'd let him get a word through, is...

1139
01:00:00,472 --> 01:00:03,058
you could maybe do with some help.

1140
01:00:03,934 --> 01:00:05,435
- Some help?
- Managing the band.

1141
01:00:05,602 --> 01:00:07,187
- It's very simple.
- It's that clear.

1142
01:00:07,354 --> 01:00:09,689
Maybe there's someone already
in the organization.

1143
01:00:09,856 --> 01:00:12,818
We don't have to pay insurance,
pay extra room, et cetera.

1144
01:00:12,984 --> 01:00:16,446
Since she's already here, she's already
among us, and uh, she can...

1145
01:00:16,613 --> 01:00:19,699
- She is perfectly capable of taking over
-"She"? Wait a minute!

1146
01:00:19,866 --> 01:00:21,743
Who do you think
I'm talking about?

1147
01:00:21,910 --> 01:00:24,246
I would have never dreamed
in a million years it was her

1148
01:00:24,412 --> 01:00:25,412
you were talking about.

1149
01:00:25,539 --> 01:00:27,916
- Why not?
- I am offering to help out here.

1150
01:00:28,083 --> 01:00:30,794
No, you're offering
to co-manage the band with me.

1151
01:00:30,961 --> 01:00:32,754
- Yes!
- Let's get it straight.

1152
01:00:32,921 --> 01:00:34,464
That is exactly it.

1153
01:00:34,631 --> 01:00:37,968
I'm not gonna co-manage with some girl
because she's your girlfriend.

1154
01:00:38,135 --> 01:00:39,886
Don't call her my girlfriend!

1155
01:00:40,053 --> 01:00:43,098
You couldn't manage a classroom
full of kids, let alone a band.

1156
01:00:43,265 --> 01:00:44,850
- Why don't we just...
- Oh, shut up!

1157
01:00:45,016 --> 01:00:47,602
Look, I... I... This is...
This is my position, okay?

1158
01:00:47,769 --> 01:00:49,938
I am not managing it with you
or any other woman,

1159
01:00:50,105 --> 01:00:52,774
especially one that dresses
like an Australian's nightmare.

1160
01:00:52,941 --> 01:00:54,234
- So fuck you.
- Fuck you too!

1161
01:00:54,401 --> 01:00:56,194
And fuck all of you because I quit.

1162
01:00:56,361 --> 01:00:58,196
All right? That's it. Good night.

1163
01:01:08,248 --> 01:01:10,500
Can I raise
a practical question at this point?

1164
01:01:10,667 --> 01:01:11,918
Yeah.

1165
01:01:12,085 --> 01:01:13,962
We gonna do Stonehenge tomorrow?

1166
01:01:14,129 --> 01:01:16,798
No, we're not gonna
fucking do Stonehenge!

1167
01:01:17,549 --> 01:01:19,467
Okay, we're all set. Thank you.

1168
01:01:20,635 --> 01:01:22,470
All right, fellas, I got the tickets.

1169
01:01:22,637 --> 01:01:26,600
We're on the 3:10 flight,
Gate 24, all right?

1170
01:01:26,766 --> 01:01:28,935
And it arrives at 4:00 in Colorado.

1171
01:01:29,102 --> 01:01:31,563
Then we've got a limo
to take us to the lodge.

1172
01:01:31,730 --> 01:01:34,274
That's about a hundred yards
from Rainbow Trout Studio.

1173
01:01:34,441 --> 01:01:38,486
Uh, what I've done is, uh,
to arrange a whole load of charts.

1174
01:01:38,653 --> 01:01:40,530
Wait till you see this. This is so great.

1175
01:01:40,697 --> 01:01:44,034
And we know that the band's sign is Virgo.

1176
01:01:44,201 --> 01:01:47,078
And we see it's Saturn in the third house.

1177
01:01:47,245 --> 01:01:50,332
All right? And it's a bit rocky,
but because Virgo

1178
01:01:50,498 --> 01:01:55,170
is one of the most highly
intelligent signs of the zodiac,

1179
01:01:55,337 --> 01:01:57,672
we're gonna pull through this
with great aplomb.

1180
01:01:57,839 --> 01:02:00,008
- Yeah.
- It's so clear...

1181
01:02:00,175 --> 01:02:01,927
Nigel hasn't got one.

1182
01:02:02,093 --> 01:02:05,847
Nigel, Nigel, we've got pages
for you here.

1183
01:02:06,014 --> 01:02:07,599
He's got one, he's got it.

1184
01:02:07,766 --> 01:02:09,309
If you have a look...

1185
01:02:09,476 --> 01:02:11,269
Think about what jumble
a tour usually is.

1186
01:02:11,436 --> 01:02:13,605
- No. He's got one, he's got one.
- Oh, he's got one.

1187
01:02:13,772 --> 01:02:17,734
Now, what I want to explain
to you here is that Denver...

1188
01:02:17,901 --> 01:02:19,861
How would you characterize
your relationship

1189
01:02:20,028 --> 01:02:21,780
with David over the years?

1190
01:02:21,947 --> 01:02:23,907
Has it changed in any way?

1191
01:02:24,074 --> 01:02:27,369
Not really, I mean, you know,
they go... We've grown up.

1192
01:02:28,828 --> 01:02:31,790
But, really, it's not... No, not really.

1193
01:02:32,415 --> 01:02:36,211
We feel like children much of the time,
even when we're playing.

1194
01:02:36,836 --> 01:02:38,421
We're closer than brothers.

1195
01:02:40,382 --> 01:02:41,758
Brothers always fight.

1196
01:02:42,550 --> 01:02:44,803
Sort of disagreements, and all that.

1197
01:02:45,762 --> 01:02:49,933
We really have a relationship
that's way, way past that.

1198
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:53,645
Ah!

1199
01:02:56,147 --> 01:02:58,942
- He can't play the guitar anymore.
- You know the part.

1200
01:02:59,109 --> 01:03:02,279
If he knew the fucking part,
he'd play it, wouldn't he?

1201
01:03:02,445 --> 01:03:04,114
- Are you walking out?
- Fuck!

1202
01:03:04,281 --> 01:03:05,740
- Are you walking out?
- Great.

1203
01:03:05,907 --> 01:03:08,034
Just tell me
what I'm supposed to do, all right?

1204
01:03:08,201 --> 01:03:10,036
We're supposed to play the fucking thing!

1205
01:03:10,203 --> 01:03:12,181
We have no choice,
we've spent an hour and a half...

1206
01:03:12,205 --> 01:03:13,205
I'm doing my part.

1207
01:03:13,290 --> 01:03:17,002
You know what would make this simpler?
I hate to cut right to it.

1208
01:03:17,168 --> 01:03:18,837
Why don't you play this alone,

1209
01:03:19,004 --> 01:03:20,940
without some fucking angel
hanging over your head,

1210
01:03:20,964 --> 01:03:22,090
you know what I mean?

1211
01:03:22,257 --> 01:03:24,884
Jesus Christ.
This is fucking all we need.

1212
01:03:25,051 --> 01:03:27,762
You can't fucking concentrate
because of your fucking wife.

1213
01:03:27,929 --> 01:03:30,140
Simple as that, all right?
It's your fucking wife!

1214
01:03:30,307 --> 01:03:32,851
- She's not my wife.
- Whatever the fuck she is.

1215
01:03:33,018 --> 01:03:35,437
You can't concentrate.
We can't fucking do the track.

1216
01:03:35,603 --> 01:03:38,523
- This is unbelievable!
- No, it's not unbelievable.

1217
01:03:38,690 --> 01:03:41,443
- It all leads up to this.
- Am I losing my fucking mind?

1218
01:03:41,609 --> 01:03:43,778
Can you check me on this?
Am I losing my mind?

1219
01:03:43,945 --> 01:03:46,281
I don't understand
what this has to do with anything!

1220
01:03:46,448 --> 01:03:47,991
We're very lucky in the sense

1221
01:03:48,158 --> 01:03:51,494
that we've got two visionaries
in the band.

1222
01:03:51,661 --> 01:03:53,955
- Right.
- David and Nigel are both like,

1223
01:03:54,122 --> 01:03:56,249
uh... Like poets, you know.

1224
01:03:56,416 --> 01:03:58,710
Like Shelley or Byron,
or people like that.

1225
01:03:58,877 --> 01:04:01,588
The two totally distinct types
of visionaries.

1226
01:04:01,755 --> 01:04:04,132
It's like fire and ice, basically,
you see.

1227
01:04:04,299 --> 01:04:07,719
And I feel my role in the band
is to be kind of in the middle.

1228
01:04:07,886 --> 01:04:10,221
Kind of like lukewarm water, in a sense.

1229
01:04:18,355 --> 01:04:20,482
I don't think we've got time
to go to the hotel.

1230
01:04:20,648 --> 01:04:22,233
We'd better go straight to the base.

1231
01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:23,818
- To the what?
- Base?

1232
01:04:23,985 --> 01:04:26,863
- The gig.
- To the Civic Arena? Right?

1233
01:04:27,030 --> 01:04:28,448
- No, it fell through.
- No.

1234
01:04:28,615 --> 01:04:29,783
What do you mean?

1235
01:04:29,949 --> 01:04:31,368
Wait a sec, hold it!

1236
01:04:31,534 --> 01:04:34,537
Do you know about this,
and we don't know about this?

1237
01:04:34,704 --> 01:04:36,331
We are going
to the Air Force base.

1238
01:04:36,498 --> 01:04:38,249
Why are we going
to an Air Force base?

1239
01:04:38,416 --> 01:04:40,668
'Cause the original gig fell through.

1240
01:04:45,465 --> 01:04:47,801
- Ah!
- Oh, Lieutenant Hookstratten.

1241
01:04:47,967 --> 01:04:49,302
You are Spinal Tarp?

1242
01:04:49,469 --> 01:04:52,222
I'm Jeanine Pettibone,
and this is Spinal Tap.

1243
01:04:52,389 --> 01:04:54,891
Spinal Tap, my mistake,
I'm Lieutenant Bob Hookstratten.

1244
01:04:55,058 --> 01:04:57,185
Welcome to the Lindbergh Air Force Base.

1245
01:04:57,352 --> 01:05:00,021
This is your gentlemen's first visit
to a military facility?

1246
01:05:00,188 --> 01:05:01,628
- Yeah.
- Fine, may I start by saying

1247
01:05:01,773 --> 01:05:03,316
how thrilled we are to have you.

1248
01:05:03,483 --> 01:05:06,694
We are such fans of your music
and all of your records.

1249
01:05:06,861 --> 01:05:08,341
I'm not speaking of yours personally,

1250
01:05:08,488 --> 01:05:10,281
but the whole genre
of the rock 'n' roll,

1251
01:05:10,448 --> 01:05:12,742
and so many exciting things
happening in music today.

1252
01:05:12,909 --> 01:05:14,749
And let me explain a bit
about what's going on.

1253
01:05:14,869 --> 01:05:17,789
This is our monthly "at-ease" weekend.

1254
01:05:17,956 --> 01:05:19,749
Gives us the chance to let down our hair,

1255
01:05:19,916 --> 01:05:22,419
although I see you all have
a head start.

1256
01:05:22,585 --> 01:05:25,130
These haircuts wouldn't pass
military muster, believe me.

1257
01:05:25,296 --> 01:05:27,715
Although I shouldn't talk.
My hair's getting shaggy too.

1258
01:05:27,882 --> 01:05:30,162
Better not get too close,
they'll think I'm with the band.

1259
01:05:30,260 --> 01:05:32,387
I'm joking, of course. Shall we go in?

1260
01:05:33,304 --> 01:05:35,765
Walk this way, please. Right through here.

1261
01:05:35,932 --> 01:05:38,726
Did you ever run into a musical group
works out of Kansas City,

1262
01:05:38,893 --> 01:05:40,895
calls themselves "Four Jacks and a Jill"?

1263
01:05:41,062 --> 01:05:42,856
They've been at a Ramada Inn
about 18 months.

1264
01:05:43,022 --> 01:05:45,692
If you're ever in Kansas City
and want to hear good music,

1265
01:05:45,859 --> 01:05:47,652
you might want to drop by.

1266
01:05:47,819 --> 01:05:52,073
I would like to get the playing
on about 1900 hours,

1267
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:53,450
if that's satisfactory?

1268
01:05:53,616 --> 01:05:57,579
- When will that be?
- It's about 1830 hours.

1269
01:05:57,745 --> 01:06:00,498
- So that's what? Fifty hours?
- A hundred and twenty hours?

1270
01:06:00,665 --> 01:06:02,375
That's actually about 30 minutes.

1271
01:06:02,542 --> 01:06:04,252
About a half hour, give or take.

1272
01:06:04,419 --> 01:06:07,839
I don't want to rush you. The idea is,
we get it on and over with.

1273
01:06:08,006 --> 01:06:09,132
And I have just one request:

1274
01:06:09,299 --> 01:06:11,676
would you play a couple
of slow numbers, so I can dance?

1275

He totally ruined the gig there.

1289
01:07:29,712 --> 01:07:31,172
He walks off and, I mean,

1290
01:07:31,339 --> 01:07:33,758
he can't be expected
to sit home and get money,

1291
01:07:33,925 --> 01:07:35,718
so we've got to get
someone else in there.

1292
01:07:35,885 --> 01:07:37,605
Has he ever done this before?
Has he ever...

1293
01:07:37,679 --> 01:07:39,389
- Well, no.
- ...quit the band before?

1294
01:07:39,556 --> 01:07:41,432
No, but you've got to understand that,

1295
01:07:41,599 --> 01:07:43,434
like, in the world of rock 'n' roll,

1296
01:07:43,601 --> 01:07:46,980
there are certain changes
that sometimes occur.

1297
01:07:47,146 --> 01:07:49,649
And you've just got to sort of roll
with them, you know.

1298
01:07:49,816 --> 01:07:51,734
I mean, you've read... You read that...

1299
01:07:51,901 --> 01:07:54,571
You saw exactly how many people
have been in this band.

1300
01:07:54,737 --> 01:07:57,782
Thirty-seven people have been
in this band over the years.

1301
01:07:57,949 --> 01:08:00,118
I mean, it's like, you know,
six months from now,

1302
01:08:00,285 --> 01:08:03,955
I can't see myself missing Nigel
more than I might miss, uh,

1303
01:08:04,122 --> 01:08:06,541
Ross McLochness, or Ronnie
Pudding, or Danny Upham,

1304
01:08:06,708 --> 01:08:09,085
or, uh, Little Danny Schindler,
or any of those.

1305
01:08:09,252 --> 01:08:10,837
I can't believe it.

1306
01:08:11,004 --> 01:08:15,091
I can't believe that, you know,
you're lumping Nigel in

1307
01:08:15,258 --> 01:08:17,302
with, uh, you know, these people

1308
01:08:17,468 --> 01:08:19,345
you've played with
for a short period of time.

1309
01:08:19,512 --> 01:08:22,640
Well, I'm sure I'd feel much worse
if I weren't under such heavy sedation,

1310
01:08:22,807 --> 01:08:25,268
but still in all, I mean,
you've got to be realistic

1311
01:08:25,435 --> 01:08:27,478
about this sort of thing, you know.

1312
01:08:27,645 --> 01:08:29,272
So, what happens to the band now?

1313
01:08:30,523 --> 01:08:33,026
- What do you mean?
- He's not coming back?

1314
01:08:33,192 --> 01:08:35,194
No, we shan't work together again.

1315
01:08:44,454 --> 01:08:46,080
- Oh, no.
- Great.

1316
01:08:46,247 --> 01:08:49,876
If I told them once,
I told them a hundred times

1317
01:08:50,043 --> 01:08:53,504
to put "Spinal Tap" first
and "puppet show" last.

1318
01:08:53,671 --> 01:08:55,214
It's a morale builder, isn't it?

1319
01:08:55,923 --> 01:08:57,550
We've got a big dressing room, though.

1320
01:08:57,717 --> 01:08:59,510
- What?
- Got a big dressing room here.

1321
01:08:59,677 --> 01:09:02,555
We've got a bigger dressing room
than the puppets? Refreshing.

1322
01:09:02,722 --> 01:09:04,932
I've got some
of this Mendocino rocket fuel

1323
01:09:05,099 --> 01:09:06,559
that's supposed to be really...

1324
01:09:06,726 --> 01:09:10,355
Can you play, uh...
Viv, can you play a bass line,

1325
01:09:10,521 --> 01:09:12,774
uh, like Nigel used to on "Big Bottom"?

1326
01:09:12,940 --> 01:09:15,735
Can you double that?
You recall the lines in fifths?

1327
01:09:15,902 --> 01:09:18,321
Oh, yeah. I've got two hands. I can do it.

1328
01:09:18,488 --> 01:09:20,615
So that's good
if we can play that one.

1329
01:09:20,782 --> 01:09:23,242
- "Hole" is out, "Heavy" is out...
- "Heavy-Hole."

1330
01:09:23,409 --> 01:09:26,204
- Right. "America" is out.
- "America" we can't do.

1331
01:09:26,371 --> 01:09:28,039
That's Nigel's tune, not mine.

1332
01:09:28,206 --> 01:09:31,042
That's a nice little set.
That's a cozy ten minutes.

1333
01:09:31,209 --> 01:09:33,089
What are we gonna do?
We've got nothing to play.

1334
01:09:33,127 --> 01:09:35,254
I'll tell you what we have to do.

1335
01:09:35,421 --> 01:09:38,174
- What?
- "Jazz Odyssey."

1336
01:09:38,341 --> 01:09:41,094
We're not going about
to do a free-form jazz,

1337
01:09:41,260 --> 01:09:44,597
uh, exploration in front
of a festival crowd.

1338
01:09:45,682 --> 01:09:48,518
You are witnesses at the new birth

1339
01:09:49,143 --> 01:09:51,729
of Spinal Tap Mark II.

1340
01:09:53,981 --> 01:09:55,900
Hope you enjoy
our new direction.

1341
01:10:16,838 --> 01:10:21,175
On the bass, Derek Smalls.
He wrote this.

1342
01:10:30,101 --> 01:10:31,686
{\an8}So tonight's
the last show of the tour.

1343
01:10:31,853 --> 01:10:34,355
{\an8}How's that feel?
You know, is this your last waltz?

1344
01:10:34,522 --> 01:10:36,190
Are we talking the end of Spinal Tap,

1345
01:10:36,357 --> 01:10:39,318
or are you gonna try to milk it
for a few more years in Europe?

1346
01:10:39,485 --> 01:10:42,572
Well, I don't...
I don't really think that the end

1347
01:10:42,739 --> 01:10:44,782
can be assessed,

1348
01:10:44,949 --> 01:10:47,744
uh, as of itself as being the end

1349
01:10:47,910 --> 01:10:49,746
because what does the end feel like?

1350
01:10:49,912 --> 01:10:53,332
It's like saying when you try
to extrapolate the end of the universe.

1351
01:10:53,499 --> 01:10:56,586
You say
if the universe is indeed infinite,

1352
01:10:56,753 --> 01:11:00,047
then what does that mean?
How far is all the way?

1353
01:11:00,214 --> 01:11:03,426
And then if it stops, what's stopping it
and what's behind what's stopping it?

1354
01:11:03,593 --> 01:11:07,472
So what's the end, you know,
is my question to you.

1355
01:11:07,638 --> 01:11:09,265
Good crowd. Good crowd.

1356
01:11:09,432 --> 01:11:11,100
- It is, isn't it?
- Yeah, it really is.

1357
01:11:11,267 --> 01:11:13,311
I mean, some of these things
don't mean much.

1358
01:11:13,478 --> 01:11:15,229
It was hard to get at the last minute.

1359
01:11:15,396 --> 01:11:17,940
You can't arrange it all overnight.

1360
01:11:18,107 --> 01:11:20,526
David,
we had a 15-year ride, mate.

1361
01:11:20,693 --> 01:11:23,279
Who wants to be
a fucking 45-year-old rock 'n' roller

1362
01:11:23,446 --> 01:11:26,616
farting around in front of people
less than half their age,

1363
01:11:26,783 --> 01:11:30,119
cranking out some kind of
mediocre head-banging bullshit

1364
01:11:30,286 --> 01:11:31,621
that we've forgotten...?

1365
01:11:31,788 --> 01:11:33,456
-It's beneath us,
-That's right.

1366
01:11:33,623 --> 01:11:35,416
- Who wants to see that?
- Absolutely right.

1367
01:11:35,583 --> 01:11:38,544
We can take those projects
that we thought we didn't have time for.

1368
01:11:38,711 --> 01:11:39,711
There's dozens.

1369
01:11:39,796 --> 01:11:42,131
You know, we didn't have time
for them because of Tap,

1370
01:11:42,298 --> 01:11:43,883
and bring them back to life.

1371
01:11:44,050 --> 01:11:46,636
- Do you remember what we were...?
- At the Luton Palace.

1372
01:11:46,803 --> 01:11:49,096
We were talking about a rock musical

1373
01:11:49,263 --> 01:11:51,140
based on the life of Jack the Ripper.

1374
01:11:51,307 --> 01:11:53,518
- Yeah, <i>Saucy Jack.</i>
- Now's the time to do that.

1375
01:11:53,684 --> 01:11:55,102
♪ <i>You're a naughty one</i> ♪

1376
01:11:55,269 --> 01:11:56,604
♪ <i>Saucy Jack</i> ♪

1377
01:11:56,771 --> 01:11:58,815
♪ <i>You're a haughty one
Saucy Jack</i> ♪

1378
01:11:58,981 --> 01:12:01,859
Right. It's a freeing up, innit?
It's all this free time.

1379
01:12:02,026 --> 01:12:05,154
- Suddenly, time is so elastic.
- It's a gift of freedom.

1380
01:12:05,321 --> 01:12:07,490
I've always wanted to do a collection

1381
01:12:07,657 --> 01:12:10,701
of my acoustic numbers
with the London Philharmonic,

1382
01:12:10,868 --> 01:12:11,869
as you know.

1383
01:12:12,036 --> 01:12:13,204
- We're lucky.
- Yeah.

1384
01:12:13,371 --> 01:12:15,665
I mean, people should be
envying us, you know.

1385
01:12:15,832 --> 01:12:18,709
- I envy us.
- Yeah. Me too.

1386
01:12:26,467 --> 01:12:27,969
It's gonna be fine.

1387
01:12:30,012 --> 01:12:32,557
- We'll make them miss us.
- Last stop.

1388
01:12:35,184 --> 01:12:38,354
I'm in. I'm in tune.

1389
01:12:38,521 --> 01:12:42,024
- Last tuning.
- I think we should go, huh?

1390
01:12:42,191 --> 01:12:43,359
I think it's time to go.

1391
01:12:44,861 --> 01:12:47,655
- Are you good?
- Yeah.

1392
01:12:47,822 --> 01:12:50,908
We're gonna do a good show.
We'll do a dynamite show.

1393
01:13:07,049 --> 01:13:08,384
Come to see the show?

1394
01:13:09,510 --> 01:13:10,511
Yeah.

1395
01:13:11,262 --> 01:13:12,889
- Hi, Mick.
- Nige.

1396
01:13:17,602 --> 01:13:19,937
So did you just come here
to hang around backstage

1397
01:13:20,104 --> 01:13:22,264
like a real rock 'n' roller,
is that what you're doing?

1398
01:13:22,398 --> 01:13:23,900
I'm really a messenger.

1399
01:13:24,609 --> 01:13:26,193
- A messenger.
- Yeah.

1400
01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:29,071
- I bumped into Ian, and, uh...
- Ian?

1401
01:13:29,822 --> 01:13:31,657
Oh, the other dead man, yeah.

1402
01:13:32,116 --> 01:13:36,621
Seems that "Sex Farm" is
on the charts in Japan.

1403
01:13:37,163 --> 01:13:39,332
Spinal Tap's recording
of "Sex Farm."

1404
01:13:39,498 --> 01:13:42,543
It's number five,
last week, actually.

1405
01:13:42,710 --> 01:13:45,212
So, he, um...

1406
01:13:45,379 --> 01:13:46,422
He asked me...

1407
01:13:47,381 --> 01:13:49,008
to ask you,

1408
01:13:49,175 --> 01:13:50,175
Tap,

1409
01:13:50,968 --> 01:13:54,722
if you'd be interested
in reforming and, uh,

1410
01:13:55,348 --> 01:13:57,600
doing a tour in Japan.

1411
01:13:58,100 --> 01:14:00,978
So you've come back to replug
our life-support systems in?

1412
01:14:01,145 --> 01:14:03,648
Is that it? By the grace of your, uh...

1413
01:14:03,814 --> 01:14:05,494
By the stroke of your hand,
you're gonna...

1414
01:14:05,608 --> 01:14:07,944
Is that what you're gonna do?
Bring us back to life?

1415
01:14:08,110 --> 01:14:10,655
- Is that what you've come for?
- No, I've come...

1416
01:14:10,821 --> 01:14:11,821
The fucking...

1417
01:14:12,907 --> 01:14:15,868
- nerve that you display...
- No, that's not...

1418
01:14:16,035 --> 01:14:18,371
Just passing on the information, really.

1419
01:14:19,497 --> 01:14:23,459
Yeah, well, I think it's time to go in.
We haven't got time to discuss this now.

1420
01:14:28,255 --> 01:14:29,382
Are you all right?

1421
01:14:51,487 --> 01:14:52,488
David.

1422
01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:55,616
Do a good show, all right?

1423
01:14:57,451 --> 01:14:58,452
Yeah, okay.

Do you feel
that playing rock 'n' roll music

1448
01:17:46,745 --> 01:17:48,455
keeps you a child?

1449
01:17:48,622 --> 01:17:51,709
That is, keeps you in a state
of arrested development?

1450
01:17:51,876 --> 01:17:53,210
{\an8}No, no, no.

1451
01:17:53,377 --> 01:17:55,504
{\an8}I feel, it's like, it's more like going...

1452
01:17:55,671 --> 01:17:57,798
{\an8}Going to a national park or something,

1453
01:17:57,965 --> 01:18:00,467
and there's, you know,
they preserve the moose,

1454
01:18:00,634 --> 01:18:04,555
and that's my childhood up there on-stage
is that moose, you know, and...

1455
01:18:04,722 --> 01:18:07,892
So when you're playing,
you feel like a preserved moose on-stage?

1456
01:18:08,058 --> 01:18:12,771
Been listening to the classics.
I belong to a great series. Uh...

1457
01:18:12,938 --> 01:18:15,524
It's called the "Namesake Series"
of cassettes.

1458
01:18:15,691 --> 01:18:17,610
And they send you
the works of famous authors,

1459
01:18:17,776 --> 01:18:20,696
done by actors with the same last name.

1460
01:18:20,863 --> 01:18:24,283
So I've got Denholm Elliott
reading T.S. Eliot on this one.

1461
01:18:24,450 --> 01:18:25,868
- Well, that's interesting.
- Yes.

1462
01:18:26,035 --> 01:18:27,411
I've got Danny Thomas doing

1463
01:18:27,578 --> 01:18:30,039
<i>A Child's Christmas in Wales</i>
by Dylan Thomas.

1464
01:18:30,206 --> 01:18:35,544
And next month, it's McLean Stevenson
reads Robert Louis Stevenson.

1465
01:18:35,711 --> 01:18:37,004
<i>Treasure Island,</i> I believe.

1466
01:18:37,171 --> 01:18:38,964
That's interesting. That's fascinating.

1467
01:18:39,131 --> 01:18:42,593
There's also something...
Shorter works of Washington Irving,

1468
01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:44,803
read by someone called Dr. ♪.

1469
01:18:44,970 --> 01:18:46,680
Oh, that's Julius Irving.

1470
01:18:46,847 --> 01:18:48,724
- Oh, Julius Irving.
- The basketball player.

1471
01:18:48,891 --> 01:18:50,891
In keeping with the series, yeah.
Didn't know that.

1472
01:18:50,935 --> 01:18:51,685
You like this?

1473
01:18:51,852 --> 01:18:53,562
It's very nice.
It looks like Halloween.

1474
01:18:53,729 --> 01:18:57,358
This is my exact inner structure
done in a T-shirt.

1475
01:18:58,067 --> 01:19:00,444
Exactly medically accurate, see?

1476
01:19:01,028 --> 01:19:04,323
So, in other words, if we were
to take all your flesh and blood...

1477
01:19:04,490 --> 01:19:06,951
Take them off, this is what you'd see.

1478
01:19:07,117 --> 01:19:09,995
- It wouldn't be green, though.
- It is green.

1479
01:19:10,162 --> 01:19:12,623
You know, see how your blood looks blue?

1480
01:19:12,790 --> 01:19:15,542
Yeah, well, that's just
the color of the vein.

1481
01:19:15,709 --> 01:19:18,462
- The blood is actually red.
- Oh, maybe it's not green.

1482
01:19:18,629 --> 01:19:20,756
Anyway, this is what
I sleep in sometimes.

1483
01:19:20,923 --> 01:19:24,093
Denis Eton-Hogg,
the president of Polymer Records,

1484
01:19:24,260 --> 01:19:26,303
uh, was recently knighted.

1485
01:19:26,470 --> 01:19:29,390
What were the circumstances
surrounding his knighthood?

1486
01:19:29,556 --> 01:19:32,434
The specific reason why
he was knighted was, uh,

1487
01:19:32,601 --> 01:19:34,436
for the founding of Hoggwood,

1488
01:19:34,603 --> 01:19:37,940
which is, um, a summer camp
for pale young boys.

1489
01:19:38,107 --> 01:19:39,108
Ah.

1490
01:19:40,442 --> 01:19:41,860
David St. Hubbins,

1491
01:19:42,027 --> 01:19:44,405
I must admit I've never heard
anybody with that name.

1492
01:19:44,571 --> 01:19:46,991
It's an unusual name.
He was an unusual saint.

1493
01:19:47,157 --> 01:19:48,659
He's not a very well-known saint.

1494
01:19:48,826 --> 01:19:51,203
Oh, there actually is...?
There was a Saint Hubbins?

1495
01:19:51,370 --> 01:19:53,455
- That's right, yes.
- What was he the saint of?

1496
01:19:53,622 --> 01:19:55,916
He was the patron saint
of quality footwear.

1497
01:19:56,083 --> 01:20:01,338
You play to predominantly, uh...
Predominantly, a white audience.

1498
01:20:01,505 --> 01:20:03,841
You feel your music is racist in any way?

1499
01:20:04,008 --> 01:20:05,884
- No, no, of course not.
- No.

1500
01:20:06,051 --> 01:20:08,637
You know, we say,
we say, "love your brother."

1501
01:20:08,804 --> 01:20:11,223
- We don't say it really, but...
- We don't literally say it.

1502
01:20:11,390 --> 01:20:13,410
- No, we don't say it at all.
- But we're not racists.

1503
01:20:13,434 --> 01:20:15,060
No, we don't believe it either,

1504
01:20:15,227 --> 01:20:17,438
but that message
should be clear anyway.

1505
01:20:17,604 --> 01:20:18,897
We're anything but racists.

1506
01:20:19,064 --> 01:20:20,441
We've grown musically.

1507
01:20:20,607 --> 01:20:23,777
Listen to some of the rubbish
we did early on, it was stupid.

1508
01:20:23,944 --> 01:20:26,488
You know, now, I mean,
a song like "Sex Farm,"

1509
01:20:26,655 --> 01:20:31,744
we're taking a sophisticated view
of the idea of sex,

1510
01:20:31,910 --> 01:20:33,245
you know, and music...

1511
01:20:33,412 --> 01:20:34,955
- Putting it on a farm.
- Yeah.

1512
01:20:35,122 --> 01:20:37,958
If I were to ask you
what your philosophy of life

1513
01:20:38,125 --> 01:20:40,461
or your creed, what would that be?

1514
01:20:41,295 --> 01:20:46,717
"Have a good time all the time."

1515
01:20:48,260 --> 01:20:50,179
That's my philosophy, Marty.

1516
01:20:50,346 --> 01:20:52,723
I believe virtually everything I read.

1517
01:20:52,890 --> 01:20:57,144
And I think that is what makes me
more of a selective human

1518
01:20:57,311 --> 01:20:59,063
than someone
who doesn't believe anything.

1519
01:20:59,229 --> 01:21:02,691
Do you have a philosophy
or a creed that you live by?

1520
01:21:02,858 --> 01:21:06,195
Well, like, personally,
I like to think about sex

1521
01:21:06,362 --> 01:21:08,739
and drugs and rock 'n' roll,
you know, that's my life.

1522
01:21:08,906 --> 01:21:12,076
If you were to have
something written as your epitaph...

1523
01:21:13,702 --> 01:21:16,413
"Here lies David St. Hubbins...

1524
01:21:18,707 --> 01:21:19,833
and why not?"

1525
01:21:22,586 --> 01:21:24,630
You feel that sums up your life?

1526
01:21:24,797 --> 01:21:26,673
No, it's the first thing I could think of.

1527
01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:28,884
- It doesn't sum up anything, really.
- Yeah.

1528
01:21:29,051 --> 01:21:32,221
I'm a real fish nut. I really like fish.

1529
01:21:32,388 --> 01:21:33,639
What kind of fish?

1530
01:21:34,348 --> 01:21:36,809
Well, in the United States, you have cod.

1531
01:21:36,975 --> 01:21:39,561
I like cod. And I love tuna.

1532
01:21:39,728 --> 01:21:42,147
Those little cans you've got here.
Tuna fish.

1533
01:21:42,314 --> 01:21:44,316
- Yeah.
- No bones.

1534
01:21:44,483 --> 01:21:45,818
Yeah.

1535
01:21:47,069 --> 01:21:49,321
If you could not
play rock 'n' roll,

1536
01:21:49,488 --> 01:21:52,241
- what would you do?
- I'd be a full-time dreamer.

1537
01:21:52,408 --> 01:21:54,368
I'd probably get a bit stupid

1538
01:21:54,535 --> 01:21:56,620
and start to make
a fool of myself in public,

1539
01:21:56,787 --> 01:21:58,455
'cause there wouldn't be
a stage to go on.

1540
01:21:59,039 --> 01:22:00,582
Probably work with children.

1541
01:22:01,875 --> 01:22:04,753
As long as there is, you know,
sex and drugs,

1542
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:06,320
I can do without the rock 'n' roll.

1543
01:22:07,965 --> 01:22:10,968
Well, I suppose I could, uh,
work in a shop of some kind

1544
01:22:11,135 --> 01:22:16,932
or do, uh, freelance selling
of some sort of, uh, product.

1545
01:22:17,433 --> 01:22:18,559
A salesmen, you think...

1546
01:22:18,725 --> 01:22:21,186
A salesman, like,
maybe in a haberdasher,

1547
01:22:21,353 --> 01:22:23,814
or maybe like a, um...

1548
01:22:24,565 --> 01:22:26,233
a chapeau shop, or something.

1549
01:22:26,942 --> 01:22:29,820
You know, like,
"What size do you wear, sir?"

1550
01:22:30,571 --> 01:22:33,240
- And then you answer me.
- Uh, 7 and a quarter.

1551
01:22:33,407 --> 01:22:34,741
"I think we have that."

1552
01:22:35,325 --> 01:22:37,453
- Something like that I could do.
- Yeah.

1553
01:22:37,619 --> 01:22:39,097
Do you think
you'd be happy doing that?

1554
01:22:39,121 --> 01:22:41,498
"No, we're all out. Do you wear black?"

1555
01:22:41,665 --> 01:22:44,543
See, that sort of thing
I think I could probably muster up.

1556
01:22:44,710 --> 01:22:46,587
Do you think you'd be happy doing that?

1557
01:22:47,754 --> 01:22:50,132
Well, I don't know. What are the hours?
