As long as he's their new drummer, I', fine with it.

There's a fine line between clever & stupid.

I was hoping "Lick My Love Pump" would be included

Saw them in Seattle just a bit ago, GREAT show. The funked-up version of Sex Farm was a real stunner. Hope this ones not in dubly.

Saw the show in Houston last weekend. Even better than expected.

They took some audience questions and one of the first was about Jeanine.

Thread over. You win.

Addendum:

I'm going to see them outside of Philadelphia next week, and I'm sitting in the...wait for it...11th row. I didn't even think of the significance of that until somebody pointed it out to me.

I have a recording of the show they did in Grand Prairie, TX last week. Good stuff. Interesting new arrangements.

Wow. Rarely is a thread truly at its apex at the first offering. But here, you have done it.

Best comment ever - at least in this thread.

Much like the key of Dminor, whenever Mayer is used in things I like I being weeping instantly.

Yes!

Will they hold another benefit concert in the Isle of Lucy?

Epic Win. And I can't wait to hear a reggae version of (Listen to the) Flower People.

Marty DiBergi: "This tasteless cover is a good indication of the lack of musical invention within. The musical growth of this band cannot even be charted. They are treading water in a sea of retarded sexuality and bad poetry."
Nigel Tufnel: That's just nitpicking, isn't it?

I envy them.

Oh, Jack, you're a saucy one.

You're a naughty one, Saucy Jack...

Mayer is a pretty good guitar player.

Singing and songwriting. . .not so much.

Keith Emerson? Cool!

They want to pull some birds, so Mayer is bringing the armadillo.

Little girls run screamin'...

This is Spinal Tap taught me one thing: Use Saran Wrap, not aluminum foil.

My friend Dave and I went and saw the movie way back when. Seven people were in the theater. Five got up and left halfway through. The two of us were rolling in the aisle laughing. Some people just didn't get it.

I was there, too. Absolutely even better than I'd imagined. I'd pay to go see the whole thing over again. If only the drunk farktards behind me would have shut up during "Wanderin'"...

I was at that show. Wouldja mind sharing? My emails in my profile.

Do they play "Stonehenge" live? I'd pay to see that...

/laughed at the mini-ruins and dancing midgets during the movie
//things were not as politically correct back then..

Yes, they played "Stonehenge", but so that I don't fark it up for folks that haven't seen the "Unwigged" tour yet, I won't spoil how they did it...hilarious...

Went to the Jacksonville show and it was a blast. Great selection of songs and everyone seemed to be having a good time. It was almost as good as corn wine.

Q&A Session:

Q: "What's the most recent question you've been asked?
Michael McKean: "I think it's that one."

I didn't think of it until afterwards but I should have asked "This question is for Mr. Green. Did you really go home and sleep with your wife?"

Anything John Mayer touches turns to shiat. Nice going, Spinal Tap.

I saw them at The Fox Theater in Atlanta last night. They gave one drunk guy from the audience 3D glasses and let him stand in front of the stage to appreciate their 3D effects (Shearer and McKean jumping forward and back) during a psychedelic number.

The drunk guy's name was "Witt". McKean said, "We'll be the judge of that" and Guest added "You're half right." Nice quick ad-libs. And during the number Witt turned around to wave at the audience and McKean inserted between lines of the song, "Witt, we're up here, asshole."

Brilliant concert, and you can buy Henge-on-a-rope soap. I didn't, but now wish I had.

However, anything Tap touches turns to pure black, so you wouldn't be able to see the shiat anyway.
