The highly anticipated sequel to 1984’s seminal comedy sees the band reunite for a farewell show with appearances from Elton John, Questlove and Paul McCartney.
‘Spinal Tap II’ reunites Marty DiBergi, Nigel Tufnel, David St Hubbins and Derek Smalls (played by Rob Reiner, Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer) as they get together for a final concert, more than 40 years after the 1984 mockumentary that made their name. In between, Spinal Tap released the album ‘Break Like the Wind’ in 1992, appeared on ‘The Simpsons’, played the ‘Live Earth’ charity concert in 2007 and Glastonbury in 2009. U2’s the Edge said of the first film that it was so close to reality that it made him weep, while Ozzy Osbourne quipped “Seen it? I’ve lived it!”. Enjoy the ride!
