That doesn't surprise me.  I don't think I'd buy the album, though; I can get
all the mediocre heavy metal I want free just by turning on the radio!  BTW,
the latest Rolling Stone has an article about the Scorpions, comparing them
to Spinal Tap.  Actually, the Scorpions are an even better parody of heavy 
metal - only they don't know it!

BTW, Spinal Tap is touring... they'll be in Boston (the Channel) on 
7/7.  The ad reads "You saw the movie... can you take it LIVE?"

Christopher Guest and Harry Shearer will be among the regular cast on
Saturday Night Live this fall.  CG, of course, is a veteran of the
National Lampoon's "Lemmings", as were John Belushi and Chevy Chase.
Check out his work on the various Lampoon LP's.
