Tap into Global Warming!



NEW YORK - Spinal Tap is back, and this time the band wants to help save the world from global warming.

The heavy metal group immortalized in the 1984 documentary, "This is Spinal Tap," will reunite for a performance at Wembley Stadium in London as part of the Live Earth concerts scheduled worldwide for July 7.

The original members of Spinal Tap will be there: guitarist Nigel Tufnel, singer David St. Hubbins and bassist Derek Smalls. Marty DeBergi, who directed "This is Spinal Tap" will also be in attendance.

A new 15-minute film directed by DeBergi on the band's reunion will also play at the opening night of the Tribeca Film Festival in New York on Wednesday. The slate for the opening gala, to be hosted by Al Gore, was previously announced, excepting the DeBergi short.
