Anyone who worked in a record store in the 80s will instantly recognize the absolutely spot on performance of Paul Shaffer as Artie Fufkin.

RIP Ric / Mick
Should I ask if he…spontaneously combusted into a little green globule on his drum seat?

Things like that happen all the time. They’re just not widely reported

The authorities said best leave it unsolved.

SEQUEL!

The sequel will be in the style of Martin Scorsese’s “The Last Waltz,” the legendary concert documentary that followed the farewell tour of the Canadian American rock group The Band. “Spinal Tap 2” will also feature real-life musicians in the film. No names have been revealed yet, but it will likely depend on the artists’ touring schedules.

Bono? Boaby?

Honk like the wind?

I have very low expectations for this

It'll either be bone dry and hilarious, or suck so hard it'll drag the original down with it

"The Last Waltz" ripe for parody + Christopher Guest's wonderful tried-and-true lead-up to a big show at the end gives me hope for it.

I thought we already had a modern-day reboot with Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping?

The tour video they released after the 1992 shows already was a sequel, really, thanks to the various interstitial/where are they now bits.

Plus, the "directors commentary" on the original, massively recommended

Just wanted to thank you for the display name nod there, C. Grisso.
