Spinal Tap-ped Again (Where Are They Now)

1984, 1992 and now 2024(ish) will see Spinal Tap back on the stage. 

Michael McKean (David St Hubbins), Harry Shearer (Derek Smalls) and Christopher Guest (Nigel Tufnel) will be joined by Rob Reiner (Marty DiBergi) and this time around Garth Brooks, Paul McCartney and Elton John will be along for the ride.  38 years later I wonder if they're still big in Japan. A true cult classic makes it's way back for a new (and old) generation. Hope they don't screw it up....

RIPCHAIN INTERVIEW

Buy Music here Ripchain is: David Ford: Vocals and guitar Bobzilla: Bass and backing vocals Mike Stanley: Lead guitar Tyler Johnson: Drums BOOTLEG METAL: So let’s get things started with the name. Who came up with the name and what’s behind it? RIPCHAIN: No inspired backstory on this one...I wanted a ‘2 syllable’ name, so I came up with it by writing two columns of single syllable words that sounded tough or intimidating in some way.

Who came up with the name and what’s behind it? HIGHWAY 4: Funny story, we actually decided on "Highway 4" after a few names.  "Crossing Waters" sounded a little too Christian Rock.. and let's face it. We already have enough "Creed's" in the world. HYEAHHH. (Scott Stapp) voice.

THE VERY END INTERVIEW:

The Very End is: Björn Goosses (voice), René Bogdanski (guitars), Alex Bartkowski (guitars), Marc Beste (bass), Lars Janosch (drums) Buy Music Here BOOTLEG METAL: So let’s get things started with the name. Who came up with the name and what’s behind it? THE VERY END: Not quite sure, maybe it was me cause I've been responsible for all lyrics ever since. But it may have been a bandmate just as well, can't remember to be honest. However, The Very End as a name is pretty obvious, I think.
