# Anyone seen the sequel
Return Of Spinal Tap? Top quality, though more of a gig than a comedy, but great songs and hillarious.

# Really?
That's pretty odd- is it like that for all bands or just because they're fictional?

# I wouldn't imagine Christopher Guest does either
... what with being Lord Christopher Haden-Guest and married to Jamie Lee Curtis.

Anyway, that's enough of my pish for one evening. I'm off.

# I have indeed
Christopher Guest has a new film coming out soon ... the three of them are in it playing members of some sort of folk band.

# You mean
like at the beginning end of The Return? Ace. Stupid question but do they really play the songs because they're fantastic ^_^

Off to bed, night all.

# nope
it's not a Tap film, but all the usual suspects are in it.

yes, they do play the music - as they do in this new one.
