Christopher Guest, the guy who was Nigel in TISP will be performing with a huge ensemble of Berklee faculty and students tonight at the Berklee Performance Center. It's sold out, so if you know of anyone with extra tickets you should ask very nicely for them. It's going to be a great show. I won't say any more in case someone here is going.

will he do his violin/guitar solo?

Heh, no he didn't do that. But there were somewhere around 50 people playing bass.

The show was all music from his various movies. Most of the Spinal Tap stuff was done like the originals except with a string & horn section. There were also several pieces with new arrangements.

Pretty much everything at the BPC gets recorded, so it will probably wind up on youtube sooner or later.
