Are you ready to rock? All together now: “Big bottom, big bottom, talk about bum cakes, my gal’s got ’em!” Yes, the majestic lyrics of Spinal Tap classic Big Bottom, a titter-ye-not, adolescent schoolboy highlight from 1984 “rocku-mockumentary” This is Spinal Tap.
Well, 41 years later and (much like the real world: see Guns N’ Roses, Oasis and every other group that ever existed) the band are back together. They’re still blasting out those bum cakes, although sensibly for more “progressive” times Spinal Tap have dropped the ickier, pervier Sex Farm from their setlist.
