A woman in work has just said the following:

“How awful for a band to loose so many drummers, the rest of the band must of been so upset”

Me staring open mouthed 😯

“Spinal Tap are a real band arent they?”

Cue much giggling and her getting a sour face and she is now grumbling at the other end of the Office. 😆

There is at least a weeks worth of pi55 take there

More of a real band than 90% of the stuff in the charts

She said ‘loose’ instead of ‘lose’, and ‘of’ instead of ‘have’. Hilarious! 😉

She said ‘loose’ instead of ‘lose’, and ‘of’ instead of ‘have’. Hilarious!

😀

I thought so so Flashy 😆 and I am quoting so don’t get all gramatical on me, spelling is inexcusable 😳

& O how they danced, the little people of pigface’s work.

this puts everything into perspective, too much **** perspective.

Deceased
John “Stumpy” Pepys (1964–1966) (Portrayed by Ed Begley, Jr. in the video “Gimme Some Money”) Died in a bizarre gardening accident, that the authorities said was “best left unsolved.”
Eric “Stumpy Joe” Childs (1966–1967) Choked on vomit of unknown origin, perhaps but not necessarily his own, because “you can’t really dust for vomit.”
Peter “James” Bond (1967–1977) (Portrayed by Russ Kunkel whose character was mistakenly credited as the name of the previous drummer) Spontaneously combusted on stage during a jazz festival on the Isle of Lucy.
Mick Shrimpton (1977–1982) (Portrayed by R. J. “Ric” Parnell) Exploded onstage.
Joe “Mama” Besser (1982) (Portrayed by Fred Asparagus). Claimed he “couldn’t take this 4/4 shit”; according to an MTV interview with Spinal Tap in November 1991, he disappeared along with the equipment during their Japanese tour. He is either dead or playing jazz. The name is a play on that of Joe Besser, who similarly had a short-lived and ill-fitted stint as a member of The Three Stooges.
Richard “Ric” Shrimpton (1982–1999) Allegedly sold his dialysis machine for drugs; presumed dead.
Sammy “Stumpy” Bateman (1999-2001) Died trying to jump over a tank full of sharks while on a tricycle in a freak show.
Scott “Skippy” Scuffleton (2001–2007) Fate unknown.
Chris “Poppa” Cadeau (2007–2008) Eaten by his pet python Cleopatra.
Plus 9 other drummers at various times (Probably between 1970 and 1981) all of whom are dead.

Tbf, this was funnier than the thread.

He is either dead or playing jazz

Brilliant!

I saw them live at Wembley a few years ago on their single date world tour, so she might not be entirely wrong.

It’s a very thin line between stupid & clever.

Almost as real as ‘Bad News’

I saw them too 😀 at the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert. We all thought they’d finish at 10 but they went up till 11!
