    Saw them on one of their other anniversary tours at the Greek Theatre in LA.
    The Folksmen opened.
    I actually wrote about it:

    Kinda bummed that they never connected and toured with Sabbath (to the best of my knowledge...the webz didn't show anything, fwiw).
    That woulda been a sweet bill.

    Wow, I didn't know they had DOUBLY Stereo(TM) in that venue!

    "7. THE FILM HIT TOO CLOSE TO HOME FOR MANY FAMOUS MUSICIANS.

    “We do love that, the musicians who have said, ‘Man, I can't watch Spinal Tap, it’s too much like my life,’” Harry Shearer said in John Kenneth Muir’s book, Best in Show: The Films of Christopher Guest and Company. “That's the highest compliment of all. It beats all the Oscar nominations we never got.” It’s a compliment the movie’s cast and crew hear quite often. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen, Eddie Vedder, and Dee Snider are just a few of the musicians who have referenced similarities between their own lives and the movie’s plot."
