Tonight's entry is a clip from the brilliant "mockumentary" This Is Spinal Tap, which purports to chronicle the fall and redemption of a band of legendary British Rockers.
In this clip, the band talks about the sucession of drummers that the band has lost to freak accidents and bizarre happenings. I'm not sure what made Me think of Spinal Tap tonight, but I was delighted to find several clips from the movie on youtube.
If you haven't seen it, go rent This Is Spinal Tap right away. It does a tremendous job of hilariously lampooning the pomposity that was arena rock, yet ends up doing do with more than a little love. It's funny and ultimately poignant (well, almost).
