If you've seen any documentaries of actual rock bands, you'll find Spinal Tap even more funny.<br /><br />And there's definitely a lot of inspiration for subject matter out there. I'll share a little secret information: A few months ago I started working on a Police three-person card, using the 1980 Topps template. I didn't really like the way it was coming out, so I put it on the back burner. Maybe I'll revisit it soon, however, thanks to you! (Also, I had no idea about the fourth member of the band. Thanks for sharing that, Fuji!)gregoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17740439412693373442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1741867383463399828.post-73196146649242276972022-05-23T12:10:48.957-04:002022-05-23T12:10:48.957-04:00I had a few friends in college call me "Spina...I had a few friends in college call me "Spinal Tap" because at the time I had long hair and a few manchu like Derek Smalls.

Not sure what to make of that, but I did love that movie (I used to have both of their albums too, the thing I liked most about them is that they weren't just a band in a mocumentary, they were also a real band that made real songs)Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681778110046124243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1741867383463399828.post-9238984171856462922022-05-22T19:27:12.493-04:002022-05-22T19:27:12.493-04:00Harry Shearer also had an uncredited role in the 1...Harry Shearer also had an uncredited role in the 1977 blockbuster Star Wars.Bohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10955725607806692792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1741867383463399828.post-15283908998313648972022-05-22T13:09:16.907-04:002022-05-22T13:09:16.907-04:00No one knows who they were or what they were doing...No one knows who they were or what they were doing.Trevor Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09207010676916110937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1741867383463399828.post-9144677204762585372022-05-22T10:53:46.203-04:002022-05-22T10:53:46.203-04:00I've been known to reference "this one go...I've been known to reference "this one goes to 11" in a sports headline or two.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1741867383463399828.post-17413904426140391522022-05-22T10:42:34.271-04:002022-05-22T10:42:34.271-04:00I've had several readers recommend this movie ...I've had several readers recommend this movie to me over the years, but I still haven't seen it. The clip you shared was pretty entertaining, so maybe over summer break. Another awesome custom.<br /><br />Not sure if you're need inspiration for more customs, but I was recently informed that The Police originally had four members. I grew up thinking it was just Sting, Stewart Copeland, and Andy Summers. The fourth member (Henry Padovani) was actually there before Summers, but was eventually let go which resulted in the famous trio. Anyways... according to Wikipedia, The Police was formed in 1977... the same year Topps utilized the quartet style rookie cards. Bad Brains, Men Without Hats, and the Thompson Twins are other bands who appear to have been formed in 1977 and (based on my limited research) originally had 4 members.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.com
