Oooooo!
Actors/Directors/Musicians and comedy icons Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer are doing something they have never done before; performing a six week, 30 city multi-media acoustic tour without wigs and electric instruments.UNWIGGED & UNPLUGGED are the guys behind Spinal Tap and The Folksmen (from A Mighty Wind) coming out from behind the hair, the facial hair, and the absence of hair, to perform as themselves songs from both films, and more, in a rare acoustic setting. You'll never hear Tap songs less loud!
UNWIGGED & UNPLUGGED will feature songs from the original soundtrack This Is Spinal Tap (1984), the studio album Break Like The Wind (1992), and A Mighty Wind (2003) along with some special surprises and rarities thrown in.

Just got tickets for that concert. SO pumped as This Is Spinal Tap is my favorite film of all time! Between DMB, Jason Mraz, & The Travoltas, it's going to be a busy summer of shows this year...and I'm not complaining.
Saw Watchmen last night at the midnight screening.
Believe the hype. It's really well done.
Now they're naturally going to be haters out there (regardless of if they actually enjoyed any part of it or not) as I'm sure it'll be the cool thing to bash the film because it's popular right now. To this vain attempt to gain some sort of 'cred' in between getting another piercing or tattoo so that you can stand out and be so different - just like everyone else - I offer the following: it's a popcorn blockbuster film & doesn't runaway or try to hide from that. Enjoy it for what it is or don't pay the money to go see it because you should know by now what you're getting into.
I'm not saying you're not entitled to your opinion, but those people that are already going in with the mindset that they're going to hate it and have already passed judgement (graphic novel purists and film snobs alike), your pre-bias is unwarranted and not needed.
