Spinal Tap Auditioned Mick (Mockumentary)
Classic interview: Spinal Tap's Nigel Tufnel
Guitarist magazine's April 1992 cover feature in full Eddie Allen (Guitarist) The following interview was first published in Guitarist magazine in April 1992. http://www.musicradar.com/news/guita...-tufnel-599724 Yes, well, moving on… Obviously the curse (Spinal Tap's skinsmen have all met bizarre and untimely ends) means the band has a reputation for getting through drummers. I just want to touch on the fact that you tried a few well-known people recently, who unfortunately didn't work out. One of those was Sheila E. And you also tried Mick Fleetwood and ex-Monkee Mickey Dolenz… "Yes, well, look, Mick Fleetwood… this was back in the States when we were doing auditions. Mick arrived in an asbestos suit, thinking that he could cheat the curse. You can't cheat the curse. What the suit did was, it slowed down his time, so in his hope that he would be able to resurrect a dwindling career, as nice a chap as he is, his time was off because he couldn't move in the suit. He was awful. But a lot of famous drummers came down, and I think Sigmund Freud would say they were scared of death, so they didn't play well, because at the back of their minds they didn't really want the job." |

I remember seeing Mick play with Spinal Tap on that VH-1 talk show The List back in about 2000 or thereabouts.
EDIT: Just looked it up...on the episode that originally aired September 6, 2000.
