What is with assholes (and of course Devoid is one) who need to tell people they were the only person who got that Spinal Tap was a spoof the first time around? That film came out when I was 19, summer after my freshman year; it had plenty of advance hype; and when I saw it in the suburban multiplex, of course we recognized Rob Reiner, Paul Shaffer and probably a ton of the others. Fuckhead.
As usual I have to share my experiencing Spinal Tap for the first time.
It was a sneak preview sponsored by the local rock station in Kansas City, KY-102. I knew it was a comedy by Rob Reiner - but apparently I was alone in that knowledge.
Everybody else in the theater seemed to think that it was a documentary about some fairly obscure rock band that they thought they knew.
I was in the second row, and shortly after the bit about the fates of the various drummers, I had to walk out of the theater auditorium in order to be able to get my breath back and not pass out.
[Guess he was a fat fuck back in 1984 even.]
The theater had a center aisle, and I was right on the aisle on the left side... and I literally fell out of my seat laughing, the only time I've ever experienced "having them rolling in the aisles."

”Hello. My name is Marty DiBergi”...
Hey look! It’s Meathead from All In The Family...!
If you can’t grasp that the movie’s fake within five seconds of its start, you’re an idiot.
