This Is Spinal Tap (1984)


A musical mockumentary by Rob Reiner.
A fictional rock band goes on tour to support their new album and has stereotypical rock band problems.
My first piece of advice on this is to watch the ending credits. There is a very dry, Brittish sense of humor through the whole film. This documentary is also painfully accurate to to real problems faced by musicians. My favorite musical number is "Lick My Love Pump", performed by Nigel on solo piano. It shows musicianship that is not seen or heard in the rest of the film. I'm rating this awesome.
