'A Mighty Wind' ITV1 1135pm Monday 06/04/09

from the makers of 'This is Spinal Tap', which I love. Never seen this one but it comes highly recommended. I am at the folk club and it is a bit late but I will be recording it.

It is highly recommended.

Very funny and even funnier IMHO if you are a folky!

It must be true - I read today that the Folkmen are appearing with Spinal Tap on the London leg of that legendary rock band's (one gig) world tour in June.

Not very impressive, I got a few smiles out of it but the real thing was even more of a joke, Kingston Trio, New Christy Minstrels etc. they were much more funny.

The Film that true folkies laugh at and nouveau folkies and the "let's take this serious" brigade tut at...

Me and the band? There wasn't a dry seat in the house!

snork! Love that My Space site.

We recorded the film last night and I am watching it now. Some good laughs in yes. But not as good as Spinal Tap.

For anyone in the U.S. who sees this in the next few minutes, some of the people who created Spinal Tap and "A Mighty Wind" are about to be interviewed on Countdown on MSNBC.
