Wait! There was a This Is Spinal Tap week … ?!?

Just because a week of This Is Spinal Tap has come to an end over at CliqueClack Flicks doesn’t mean you missed out!

A few of our fearless Clackers put fingers to computer keys and riffed about Tap and Company. Here’s a synopsis of what happened when August went all the way up to eleven:

• Debbie gave us her thoughts on Christopher Guest (and how she swooned for him)
• Tara offered us some of the fine lines between clever and stupid with a bevy of Tap quotations
• Kim talked about Tap’s over-the-top albums, song lyrics and more
• Liz gave us a virgin diary look at the film
• And the host of this gig jawed about The Spinal Tap influence, Tap trivia, and riffed on the earworm period piece The Boys committed

Just because This Is Spinal Tap week concluded today doesn’t mean you get the business end of  Ian Faith‘s cricket bat. As David St. Hubbins so eloquently put it:

“Well, I don’t really think that the end can be assessed as of itself as being the end
because what does the end feel like?
It’s like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe,
you say, if the universe is indeed infinite, then how – what does that mean?
How far is all the way, and then if it stops,
what’s stopping it and what’s behind what’s stopping it?
So, what’s the end, you know, is my question to you.”
