Here's a good example of how execution of a bit is key. This was not funny at all. It was pretty lame.

you know a group is getting desperate when they pull something like this...
the majority of their fan base probably doesn't even know what Spinal Tap is

Luckily that isn't available in Australia, so I don't have to suffer.

At least Harry didn't have to get stuck in the coccoon, I only caught the tail end of the tune so i missed the un-coccooning .

It's Conan , it was an inevitable re-enactment.
Hopefully anoither band will do it too.

Are these jokers even relevant anymore? And why did Derek shave his super-stache?

I couldn't watch much of it. I saw the caccoons and closed the window. Was it funny?

Haha, that was great. Love the Spinal Tap tribute. That FOB song is something I actually briefly was tempted to cover when I first heard it, though I decided it's still too rock and not poppy enough.

This is somewhat humorous. But I didn't think it was that funny in Spinal Tap, and I don't really think it's funny now. I do like that they seem to have the exact props from Spinal Tap, though.

That was the best Pete Wentz has ever sounded. In the cocoon that is.

What the f*** was all that about then? Was that really music or am I just old now?
