Spinal Tap?

David: I've always, I've always wanted to do a collection of my acoustic numbers with the London Philharmonic as you know.
Derek: We're lucky.
David: Yeah.
Derek: I mean people...people should be envying us, you know.
David: I envy us.
Derek: Yeah.
David: I do.
Derek: Me too.
 
"IAN?!?! You put a greased, naked woman on the cover, on all fours, with a man's arm, extended to here, shoving a glove into her face. You don't think that's sexist?"

"You should've seen what they originally wanted to shove in her face. It wasn't a glove....believe me!"
 
"David, look at us. We can't be continuing like this....we're 40 years old.... We can finally get back into all of those projects we've been putting off because of Tap"

"Like that musical on Jack the Ripper. You remember that, don't you?"

"Oh, yeah. Saucy Jack."

"You're a mean one....Saucy Jack."
 
i just watched it like five minutes ago and i gotta say the part that makes me laugh the hardest is when nigel is doing his big solo piece ..... one guitar on a stand that he plays with his shoe, his main axe in his hand and he rakes a violin across the strings of his main axe ..... the funniest part by far though is when you see him notice that something is 'off' and he tunes one of the strings on the violin :D
 
"I for one, don't think the problem that the band was down. I think the problem may have been that there was a Stonehenge monument on stage that was in danger of being crushed by a dwarf."
