- We are watching the legendary Spinal Tap! Two of us Alexander and Billy (from the left) has seen it and the brothers Peter and Markus is yet to be blessed by this wonderful movie. Join us on a journey of moderate to excessive drinking, armadillos in trousers, Elton John references, truckload of band name drops and more Elton John references.
"Venegence" on most platforms!
Take care

"Sorry for bad English, we are not drunk yet." Fantastic.😂
Haha! One can only be honest! Thanks for watching.
@@Venegence My Spanish class was easier if I had a couple of beers before class.
I'm not drunk yet either but y'all sound GREAT to lil ole me😂❤🎉
That line fits perfectly with the movie. And then to speak perfectly fluent English with only an accent... lol. It was fun watching
Fun fact: on IMDB people can rate all movies on a scale of 1 to 10. Except for This is Spinal Tap, where the rating scale goes to 11. Not a joke - they actually implemented that exception into the website.
Nothing better than seeing band guys react to a movie about band guys. May your amps forever go to 11.
Haha! Thank you so much for the kind words, always to 11.
The algorithm gods brought this video to my attention and I'm glad it did. Since this is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen and it never gets old I had a beer and watched it with you. You guys are fun. 🤘🎸🖤
Haha thank you algorithm gods! Truly a timeless classic and so glad to hear you enjoyed it with us, it was a laugh to do and great to hear that it came across!
Thank you for the kind words, it means the world to us. (Can’t go wrong with a cold one, we are experts in that field) Rock on 🤘🖤
This movie was so great. That afterwards the actors started touring as the band, Spinal Tap. ✌️
When he tunes the violin, lol I die laughing every time.
Haha! Absolutely one of the greatest moments in the movie.
@@VenegenceCame here to say the same. It’s so obvious you guys are musicians because you totally understood how absurd tuning the violin is. Awesome reaction, except for points deducted for referencing We Built This City, lol.
"You can't really dust for vomit" 🤣🤣🤣 Man . . . I'll never get tired of that line.
Fun fact about the tiny Stonehenge: that actually happened but in the other direction. Black Sabbath (I'm pretty sure it was) ordered stage-props of Stonehenge, but whereas in the movie, they mixed up feet and inches, in reality, they mixed up feet with metres, and the damn things were absolutely gigantic.
Haha what an image! Art imitates life! I buy it considering Black Sabbath has a song called ”Stonehenge”, can definitely see the Sabbath boys doing that. Thanks!
@@Venegence that's a deep cut! Proper sabbath fan I see 😅
Black Sabbath's Stonehenge was designed to fit through the enormous loading docks of arenas, but when, like Spinal Tap, they ended up playing smaller venues, the Stonehenge was too big to get into the venues.
Spinal Tap had the problem of the Stonehenge prop being too large as well, in the 1994 "Break Like The Wind" video.
I saw 'Spinal Tap' perform on the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury Festival a number of years ago. ( I used to work at the festival as a stage manager/compere, but only on one of the smaller stages). It was great. Thanks for sharing your reaction,
That is sick! The legends in action. Thank you for watching!
Only musicians laugh when he tunes his violin.
Totally agree, the perfect punchline for us musicians haha!
Good to see the boys all together doing the two things we all love:
Drinking and Elton John
The White Album did have something on the cover, something very important to sales. In large capital letters it said "THE BEATLES"
I enjoyed watching the band drink.
And we enjoy drinking! A win win situation so to say, thanks for watching!
You have to do more of these.
Please.
Tons of great scenes in this movie, especially if you are knowledgeable about music, guitar playing, Classic Rock and everything surrounding that era. IMHO the best of the best - according to me and my music/classic rock loving and devoted hobby musician buddies - is Nigel's "trademark" solo. Specifically, not the ridiculous cliched triplets and horrible bending early on, not playing a second guitar sitting on a stand with his foot, and not playing the strapped-on guitar WITH a violin (they probably had to resuscitate Jimmy Page when he saw that), though all of that was brilliant and hysterical). It's when he takes a moment to tune the violin. That killed me and my hobby musician buddies, and it got the biggest reaction from the guys in Venegence. I just don't get the references to Elton John - my first "musical love" - I graduated from early '70s pop crap to real music when I got his first Greatest Hits album in 1975 when I won a radio contest.
It is such a great moment the tuning part, we laughed even more about that then we showed! Haha. The timing and execution of all the clichés are flawless! It is making fun of and showing us why we love it at the same time, can’t get any better than that! I don’t think we even know why so many Elton references haha! But we love him, and you as well for watching so thanks!
The Stonehenge gag came from Black Sabbath, for their upcoming 1983 Born Again tour they ordered a Stonehenge set and used meters instead of feet, it was so massive they couldn't fit it on the stage and had to have a new set made from scratch.
I was going to see the Born Again tour with my dad in Vancouver, sometime about September, Ian Gillan's only album taking over from RJD, Quiet Riot was the opening band. They cancelled that show because Geezer had bronchitis, by the time the tour started up again they were scheduled for Vegas so my dad took his girlfriend and left me in Vancouver because of school. I never got to see Sabbath live but I saw Quiet Riot with Kickaxe and Whitesnake in October, 1984.
I almost spat out my coffee when David is pissed over that a midget... almost tripped over Stonehenge on stage!!
Fun fact: The bassist has been a regular voice actor on The Simpsons since the beginning of the show.
Harry Shearer was in movies long before that.
He was also involved with SNL. Writer and on screen.
Hopefully your drummer lives longer than theirs.
If you guys enjoyed "This is Spinal Tap", then you might like "A Mighty Wind". It's the same guys from the band, but it's a folk band this time. It's another mockumentary that captures the reunion of 1960s folk trio the "Folksmen" as they prepare for a show at The Town Hall to memorialize a recently deceased concert promoter.
Other cool things about the actors in the band:
-Harry Shearer (bass) provides many voices for "The Simpsons" such as Principal Skinner, Kent Brockman, Mr. Burns, Waylon Smithers, Ned Flanders, Reverend Lovejoy, formerly Dr. Hibbert until 2021, Lenny Leonard, Otto Mann, Rainier Wolfcastle, Scratchy, Kang, Dr. Marvin Monroe, and Judge Snyder, among others.
-Michael McKean (guitar and lead vox) was most recently in "Better Call Saul" as "Chuck" and was amazing in it.
-Christopher Guest (guitar) has been in many things as well, like "Stanley S. Squarepants" in SpongeBob, and an evil 6-fingered man in the 80's classic "The Princess Bride".
That was so much fun watching a band react to this movie! John Elton!
🤩 PS: Your music sounds great! Loved the track at the end of the video!
Thank you so much! Glad to hear you enjoyed the mayhem and the music haha!
Never realized how much Elton John is in this movie.
Haha! Right? But it is very much appreciated.
The Blonde girlfriend is depicted as being a "Yoko Ono" creating division amongst the Band members.
I don't think these guys got a lot of the jokes.
Eat a snickers
I miss that, hanging with my old band , getting buzzed and riffing. Keep playing music guys.
We will, thank you!
My favorite line, which wasn't shown here, was "As long as there's, you know, sex and drugs, I can do without the rock and roll."
So let's see... Mick Shrimpton exploded on stage, Joe "Mama" Besser "Got tired of this four-four shit" and went off and is presumed dead or playing jazz, RIC Shrimpton joined for the Break Like the Wind tour (Mick's twin brother that no one knew about, both portrayed by Ric Parnell who actually passed away of natural causes not too long ago), he allegedly sold his dialysis machine for drugs, no one knows what happened to Skippy Scuffleton, though as I recall he looks an awful lot like their current, most long living drummer, Greg Bissonnette (but I cannot find anything confirming that Greg played Skippy AND himself anywhere online)... and Viv allegedly got killed while visiting Mick's grave which exploded (of course) and was replaced by CJ Vanston (under his real name) from Break Like the Wind forward, so honestly you could say that the 2009-present lineup is the most stable Tap's ever been. Kind of like the Steve Morse versions of Deep Purple or the post-Bill Wyman, pre-Charlie Watts-death lineup (including touring/unofficial members like Daryl Jones) of the Stones. And like Deep Purple and the Stones it just feels WRONG somehow...
Haha yeah that’s crazy man
You guys are hilarious, reminds me of high school days watching this with my friends 🤟🏼
After not seeing this movies for many years, it was cool to see some of the stars:
Harry Shearer - Ned Flanders
Fran Drescher - The Nanny
Paul Shaffer - Letterman Show
Of course Elton John.
And the funny Billy Crystal scene..’Mime is money!’
Dana Carvey was also in this movie - see if you can spot him
@@philiproach2537 Along with Billy Crystal.
Michael McKean - Better Call Saul's elder brother
Bald guy with the glasses who was the band leader for Dave Letterman was Paul Shaffer, he was the keyboardist and musical director for Thin Lizzy when they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. They played along with a full orchestra and Paul wrote their parts.
The band leader for Conan O'Brien was Max Weinberg from Bruce Springsteen's E-Street Band, his son is Jay Weinberg, drummer for Slipknot.
♫ Elton John, what's that flower you've got on... ♫ You guys are the first reactors to notice that everyone was playing a bass, for Big Bottom. You were also the first to recognize Paul Shaffer. In addition, you caught that Hubbins was just playing chords, and the song was pretty flat, without Nigel's lead. This film is always a treat to watch, and I'm glad that even after all this time, it's still recognized as a parody. Perhaps, in ten more years or so, that might not be the case. There is a similar movie that deals with folk music, and stars the three main guys, in a folk band. It's called "A Mighty Wind". It's a documentary, if you will, a mockumentary of Folk Music. Another good film, with music as the topic is "Rock of Ages". It's a musical, and it's not quite as organic. It has Tom Cruise in it. It's kinda like a cross between Grease & Zoolander, except musically themed.
I think this is one of the best reactions to this movie because you guys got all the music and gear jokes.
This was excellent, boys. If this is your only journey into movie reactions, then it was definitely the best movie to end with.
We are definitely not stopping here, after much work and other stuff coming in the way we finally are getting it going again! Thank you for watching
Goa editing skillz, grejt kåntent! 🤘
hey lads this movie was mostly improvised. except for the songs of course which the group wrote. This was also the first time a backstage look at rock and roll life was shown and many bands of the day thought they had a spy amongst them that exposed how moronic and debauched they were...and they felt extremely THREATENED. lol
Would Nigel have used the "armadillos" reference, since those are only new world animals? That'd be like somebody from the US talking about hedgehogs.
sweet RED FANG shirt !
Thank you very much! Only absolute killer band t-shirts are allowed in our band! Haha.
Well shit. Came to watch you guys watch Spinal Tap and left a fan. I like the music. Def a Good Jam. Hope to see and hear more. Sorry it took so long to find you. 🤘😈🤟
Thank you! Wow 🙏 Really appreciate you giving us a listen. And to hear you enjoyed it is just fantastic! Better later then never haha! Rock on🤘🖤
Nice to see caught when they were about to crack up after the "...dust for vomit..." gag!
So a consensual femdom malesub cover for Smell The Glove is fine, but a consensual femsub cover isn't. Yeah, that actually is sexism.
That moment you realize that a made up, farcical band from the 1980s is better than most real bands today.
This is a classic,but Bad News takes it up to twelve!
5:59 Are there any other rock band that uses 4 bass guitars for one song? (Derek got a double bass neck just sayin') Peace Out
How are you in a band and you've never seen Spinal Tap? That's just unnatural. It's like a sunset that's not beautiful or a straight rainbow or like a really good bass player. Only kidding. Relax.
Only 3 parts of the movie are live. The rest are done in front a of a screen in a studio. Limitations in budget and tech.
Spinal Taps influence on Elton John cannot be overstated
Dales pale ale! ,,,, Brewed just down the street from me
Metallica actually got the inspiration for their Black Album from this lol
Swedish death metal is the greatest thing in the history of ever. I’m so happy I’ll dig this movie.
The movies "Bad News" and "More Bad News" are even better than Spinal Tap
Check them out
let me know when you play bavaria. i will be there
11 is great, but Stonehenge is over the top
The drummer is the voice of a large chunk of characters on The Simpsons and the main singer you would know from Better Call Saul (Not Saul)
Bassist, the drummer(s) die.
Love the shoutout to Red Fang!
1:48 Notice that the umlaut is over a consonant.
I think the football shirt is Shrewsbury Town, not Sweden. 🤘
Touché! We owe our drummer an apology! Haha, thanks for watching.
26:00 My solos are my trademark lol.
Skal
From New England
US and A's
( worse than ole England)
Had me crackin up
Haha! Skål!
You have to look at the video of Spinal Tap in concert with David Gilmour playing bass.
Will do! Thanks for watching, and the tip!
if you like this you have to check out the Rutles a brilliant sendup of the Beatles.
Thanks for the tip!
You know the legend- now you must learn the music! Start with "Big Bottom" 🎉❤
”Talk about bumcakes my girls got ’em!” Haha! Genuinly something we might do, thanks for the inspiration!
@@Venegence that would be awesome! Have you seen any of their reunion concerts from the 90s? They played a show somewhere in Europe, & did big bottom & every living legend bass & guitar player joined them on stage- all playing bass guitars! Hysterical!
@@markcatanzaro9699 Oh shoot! No but thank you for the tip! Some musician cameos with Spinal Tap sounds fantastic haha 🙏 Def going to check it out with the boys!
3 American comedians doing British accents. A lot of ad libs.
I wonder why they chose to be 'british' just because there are a lot of great british bands? And most I can think of are very intelligent so it was strange that they'd pick brits to be these very unintelligent comedy characters.
@@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerekit's called comedy I'm a brit and find it hilarious 😂
@dib000 I know I was just wondering why. It's quite random.
@@dib000 they are american and most hair metal bands are american
Spinal Tap Bassist Derek Smalls Returns With Barbie-Slamming Single, ‘Must Crush Barbie’
20:22 I believe this scene was film at the Airport in Fargo, ND. It is an international Airport and is used by dignitaries to the US without hubbub. If you listen to the background intercom, you'll hear of flight a flight coming in to Fargo, ND.
The original "THIS IS SPINAL TAP" was an incredible "tour de force" in the genre of SATIRE.. So many people did not get it.. I did.
Interesting that a reaction recognises Paul Schaefer. None of the American reactors I've watched seem to know who he is.
Thank Blues Brothers for that one haha!
Totally. I think I saw him first on Letterman, and then on snl/Blues Brothers. @@Venegence
Fun Fact: Spinal Tap was originally supposed to be a 50s rock band called Lenny & The Squigtones from the tv show Laverne & Shirley, they were already a fictional band with singles and an album and performed live shows as well as television appearances throughout the 70s and early 80s.
Lenny & The Squigtones was Squiggy (David L. Landers) the lead singer, Lenny Kosnowski (Michael McKean) guitar, Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest) guitar, Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer) on bass although Dwight Knight played bass on the album, Lars Svenki (Murphy Dunn) on keyboards (He was Murph, the keyboard player for The Blues Brothers too), and Ming The Merciless (Don Poncher) on drums. David L. Landers wasn't on board to make a movie so the rest of the band, minus Lars and Ming renamed themselves Spinal Tap and got a 80s metal image, Lenny also had to change his name to David St. Hubbins since Lenny Kosnowski was a trademarked name.
the electric bannana was a real place in pennsylvania
Hey nice fact thanks for that one! Just looked it up, legendary punk acts playing there. No joke!
Best reaction to this movie I've ever seen!
Wow thank you! We will take that with us. Thank you for watching!
You gotta do more!!
I suggest The Return of the Living Dead,Smoke 'em if you got 'em(Australian film) and Magma Trianon 2000.❤
In 1985 I saw Spinal Tp in concert in San Francisco They do play really good for a big band. They actually released an album with these tracks and it was called break like the wind Tour
Liked! Subscribed!
Very glad to hear that! Thank you for watching
Sorry for bad English we are not drunk yet is a line that should have been in the movie.
Reportedly, Aerosmith thought that the movie was based on them.
I did not know Elton John was so big in Sweden.
Elton John is god
@@Venegence He is a great artist and good guy but not one of my favorite musicians. More a Doors, Hendrix, Beatles, and Stones fan. Great reaction guys! Have a beer or two and enjoy your weekend.
The reactors probably had no idea how many famous American comedians showed up for this movie. Also fun fact, Paul Schaeffer was also the musical director for the movie "The Blues Brothers" His reputation goes much further than "David Letterman".
Oh yes! At least 1 of us did! Haha. From Dana Carvey, Rob Reiner to Billy Crystal. All legends! Blues Brothers is in 2 members of the bands top 10 list haha! Thanks for watching.
Please react to Some kind of Monster, Metallica.... It's ace. Great reaction guys. I also checked some of your tracks... Great stuff.
Thank you so much, appreciate it!
One of the best films ever made. Turn it up to 11!!
The first time I watched this movie, I thought it was pretty good. The second time I watched it, it became a permanent fixture in my top five.
Absolutely, we are definitely going to watch it again some day haha.
Spinal Tap actually released a second album called Break Like the Wind
...which was immortalized on The Simpsons in season 3 episode 22 while on their World Tour of London, Paris, Munich and Springfield.
*New Subscriber* : That was very fun. Great interaction and reactions from you all, and the video editing was superb ! More please. Just watched your song "Electric Giant" Lappland Woodstock 2018 - it's great ! More songs and videos please. I'll watch your back catalogue here. Greetings from this Irish guy living in Prague, CZ !
Irishman in Prague that’s sick! Haha. We have some news to share! Due to the insane and fantastic response to this video, we've been working hard on multiple projects. Including music and more like this!
But warm greetings to you for taking the time to check out our stuff.
It means the world sincerely!
(One project is released next month right here on TH-cam. Stay tuned for updates, and thank you again.)
@@Venegence I've "notifications on", so will look out for the new project. The Czechs would LOVE your music by the way. Come and tour here !
Right on. Thanks for sharing.
Probably coincidental that you reference tim and Eric but two spinal tap actors are in Tim and Eric the guy who plays stumpy Pete is ed begly jr and does the Cinco phone ad. And I just forgot his name rip but the air force guy making the jokes does the traggs trough bit
The Air Force guy was Fred Willard
Oh yeah! I remember those now! ”For those of you who travel by ship!” Haha! Great fact
Bästa Disneyfilmen någonsin! Kul att ni tyckte om dem. De turnerar fortfarande…
Hoppas på att man får se legenderna någon gång då! Tack för att du tittade.
Hello Cleveland!!
That might’ve been the best reaction to this movie I have ever seen.😂
Thank you so much, glad you liked our so called Trainwreck haha!
Is vengeance deliberately misspelled?
We prefer the term ”modification” haha, but yes i guess you can say that!
You should probably do another movie. You all were fun to watch!
Thank you so much! Who knows, maybe we will! *wink wink*
@@Venegence Maybe the Elton Johm biopic Rocketman ;)
Artie Fufkin is played by Paul Simon
Paul SHAFFER.
The fact that none of them knew how to play any instruments is just mind blowing
I love the fact you thought that might be a Tre Kronor shirt, which is understandable being as Ibra would've been great in this band, but it's Shrewsbury Town I'm afraid
