Giving the Earth a Spinal Tap


Here's something to give you a chuckle: New 15-minute short featuring the members of the fictional heavy metal band Spinal Tap, directed by Rob Reiner (in his guise as Marty DiBergi), in which the boys in the band get back together for the "Live Earth" concerts later on this year.

What's really terrifying is that this fictional heavy metal band has new actually been together for something like a quarter of a century (the movie This is Spinal Tap came out in the early 80s), so ironically they've been around longer than most bands in the genre they parodized. It blows the mind, it does.
