It is indeed an actual amp!
Limited Edition version
I have no need of this whatsoever, nor can I justify the expense, but I must have it!
That's very, very tempting. Presumably the amp could be used to plug an iPod into, that kind of thing...?

Tap and Bad News are polar opposite music satires though. Tap are a band that were massive and are now in decline, Bad News never really made it in the first place. Both brilliant.
Like it - is it a Play.com exclusive?Brilliant!It is indeed an actual amp!

Amazon say that the new DVD is one disc, which hopefully doesn't mean the extras are Blu-Ray exclusive. It would be a bit stupid to have the SD production The Return Of Spinal Tap only available on a HD format.
Hey, I've got one of those amps (but without the Spinal Tap logo)! I picked it up last year. It's a micro-amp with a belt clip on the back. It's quite neat and loud enough for practicing with. It's the proper Marshall brand though it's made in Korea or Vietnam or somewhere like that (will have to take a look). There was another slightly more expensive version that looked like a two amp stack.It is indeed an actual amp!

In the supporting interviews and press appearances it seems to me that these are all supposed to be seen as re-recordings, even the songs presented in their original arrangements.
Are the only bonus tracks I need to track down, Flower People, Saucy Jack and Sex Farm?
Don't think that's right - the report I read said three discs.
Still not quite sure what the limited edition has - it looks like it might have the DVD and the Blu Ray, as well as the soundtrack CD and other assorted sundries.

Yep - if you find a way to get Sex Farm 2009 without having to buy the entire LP on iTunes let me know! I think Flower People's still free on the UK Amazon MP3 (V0 file) and Saucy Jack's free on the official website (320kbps - not stingy!).
There's a Rock Band download EP too which contains all the previously unreleased 'new' songs except the Jazz Oddyssey sketches, and Saucy Jack, all playable on the game as well. How the latter works on it is beyond me though.
Interesting bit of trivia - the credits in the booklet strongly hint that they recorded Rock N Roll Nightmare back in 2000 when they recorded the Back From The Dead track. Presumably meant to be a B-side for a physical single that never happened?
Other interesting trivia about Back From The Dead - Parker Posey does the female screams on it! Guest was doing Best In Show at the time so it makes sense.
Watched the DVD a couple of days ago - some massive laughs in there, wonderful to see their creative cogs turning in harmony. Odd that there are two similar attempts included of them commenting Sex Farm though - I wonder if one is replacing an unused Saucy Jack commentary?
Managed to construct the packaging into the diorama - which hurt my head working it out - and it's quite amusing to see completed. Derek and Nigel are a bit floppy though.
Ahh, that makes more sense. Odd that it definitely seems to have every single promo video except Majesty Of Rock though. And the original running time for The Return Of is 117 mins - not 57. Could be a mistake though, especially given there's hardly anything else on disc 2.
Can't find it
Great appearance at Glastonbury yesterday, including a parade of Big Bottoms!
Wel the boys were on top form last night at Wembley Arena! They powered through 1 hour 40 min set of hit after hit - starting off with Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight and finally ending up with Heavy Duty
Plenty of quips about being back home in London (near Squatney), and Stonehenge was perhaps the highlight with a disastrous attempt at inflating a near-life size monument!
Great stuff, only improved by support from the Folksmen!

It was a great gig wasn't it! I'm a bit disappointed that my mate got a better view from the 5th row than I got from the 3rd!Wel the boys were on top form last night at Wembley Arena!

The Folksmen were brilliant, I think I was more excited about seeing them than the Tap!
