Bad News vs Spinal Tap

[Dan T]

A friend of mine swears that Spinal is better, and whilst there's no doubting the quality of the band getting lost backstage and Derek Smalls trapped in a coccon onstage.........to me Bad News is stupidly nearer the truth with all its 'Frilly Pink' and 'we're more than a Heavy Metal band' gags

Maybe its a British thing..........but Bad News is funnier - laughing my socks off watching it now

Tap all the way. I HATED Bad News. No subtlety at all.

But the best spoof metal band was "Iron Lung" from the old Pookiesnackenburger series on Channel 4 in the 80's. Not only was it the funniest but the songs were actually pretty great too . I'd kill to get my hands on a tape of that show.

ahh well..

To be honest I had a good luagh at BN and Bottom and the young ones are way cool, but I have to say that ST is way more fun... and better!:Spin:



btw, hey did you know that Saxon was one of the Sk "role modles" for the ST movie? ahha... so great! haha circus-pants and HM attitude!! ha ha ...

Cheers
when do we get an 'I' forum here then Dan?!!
Get a move on m8!
See ya in a bit!

Tap is definitely cleverer - more subtle I suppose - but I do think Bad News is closer to the way it is, all the 'creative differences' and egoism is something you see a lot in bands - and their appearance at Donington is hilarious, and actually the way the Darkness are heading if they ever get a spot on the festival, as they will surely we bottled to hell before a stage invasion ends with the slitting of the singer's throat........
