Spinal Tap at Live Earth

| | comments (0)

Spinal Tap do “Stoneghenge,” complete with monoliths in danger of being toppled by a dwarf, and “Big Bottom,” featuring every damn bass player in the U.K.:

Looks like they didn’t play “Warmer Than Hell,” and now I’m wondering if it’s really a real song at all, or just another joke. The only taste we may get of “Warmer Than Hell” is, I suspect, in the 15-minute film documentarian Marty DeBergi debuted back in the spring, in which he details his attempts to get the band back together for Live Earth. (See the film from the link midpage here.) A snippet of a rehearsal of “Warmer Than Hell” features the lyrics “The devil went to Devon, it felt like the fourth degree / He said, ‘Is it hot in here, or is it only me?’”

I guess my Tapgirl dreams of a resurgence of the Tap will go unfulfilled...
