This is Spinal Tap

[MikeMike]

Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...
Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?
Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.
Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
Marty DiBergi: I don't know.
Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.
Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.


continue the discussion now.

If you put an amp on a treadmill and turned it to eleven...

 

[saahmed]

If you amped your meds up by 11 doses...

 

[DivideBYZero]

If you play Amped 11 times...

 

[pontifex]

that movie is great.

Marti: Is that you're new guitar.
Nigel: Yea, its my baby.
*Marti reaches out for it*
Nigel: Don't Touch It!!
Marti: I wasn't going to touch it.
Nigel: Yea you were, you can't touch it.
Marti: I was just looking at it.
Nigel: Don't look at it.
Marti: I can't even look at it?
Nigel: Lets carry on.

Or something like that. LOL

The Shark Sandwich reviews are the best...

 

[spacejamz]

the stonehenge stage prop was hiliarious...

 

[blackdogdeek]

i like when the bassist gets stuck in the pod until the end of the song when his pod finally opens.

 

[spacejamz]

or when they were walking from the dressing room to the stage and got lost in the basement...

 

[Illusions89]

Nigel: In ancient times, hundreds of years before the dawn of history, an ancient race of people... the Druids. No one knows who they were or what they were doing...

que dancing midget.

Marty DiBergi: It's very pretty.
Nigel Tufnel: Yeah, I've been fooling around with it for a few months.
Marty DiBergi: It's a bit of a departure from what you normally play.
Nigel Tufnel: It's part of a trilogy, a musical trilogy I'm working on in D minor which is the saddest of all keys, I find. People weep instantly when they hear it, and I don't know why.
Marty DiBergi: It's very nice.
Nigel Tufnel: You know, just simple lines intertwining, you know, very much like - I'm really influenced by Mozart and Bach, and it's sort of in between those, really. It's like a Mach piece, really. It's sort of...
Marty DiBergi: What do you call this?
Nigel Tufnel: Well, this piece is called "Lick My Love Pump".

Well now this one just says "Sh!t Sandwich."

Nigel Tufnel: It's like, how much more black could this be? and the answer is none. None more black.



Derek Smalls: We're very lucky in the band in that we have two visionaries, David and Nigel, they're like poets, like Shelley and Byron. They're two distinct types of visionaries, it's like fire and ice, basically. I feel my role in the band is to be somewhere in the middle of that, kind of like lukewarm water



Nigel Tufnel: We've got Armadillos in our trousers. It's really quite frightening.

LOVE that movie!

 

[MikeMike]

[JDrake]

Lots of quote threads today

 

[Homerboy]

HELLO CLEVELAND!

 

[nakedfrog]

Our stonehenge is in danger of being crushed by the dancing midget!

 

[mpitts]

It's such a fine line between stupid and clever..

 

[clamum]

I've heard good things about this movie, I suppose I'll have to see it.
