Every performer who's ever been on the road has at least one bizarro story that could have been pulled straight from the iconic music mockumentary, This Is Spinal Tap. Co-hosts Allen Keller and Alex Hofmann delve deep into their guests’ harrowing, humbling, and hilarious Spinal Tap Moments uncovering universal truths along the way. (Although it would be as great as having armadillos in our trousers, this podcast is not affiliated with This Is Spinal Tap and no person or entity connected with the film has sponsored or endorsed its content.

Today We're Gonna Potty Like It's 1999!
We’ve had more stories than we care to mention about musicians having to jump through poops, we mean HOOPS, to answer nature’s call on the road. In this special TMEP Show episode, we dropped the kids off at the pool (cuz we had so much work to do) and went deep into the bowels of the TMEP Show archives to squeeze out the very best examples of potty humor — stories from Styx, Sleater-Kinney, Drive-By Truckers, OK Go, and more. So sit back, put down that 2009 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine you’ve read thousands of times while doing your business, and enjoy!

Quick Taps - Barf Flies
You may yawn during this episode — technicolor yawn, that is — when WeirDass’ Bob Dassie regurgitates a tale about the time he barfed on the road with Second City’s touring company and got shit for it; Dominique Fils Aime spews a story about her bassist triggering a child’s gag reflex during a gig; and Arsun confides why his nickname could be "upChuck Berry” after a ferry ride from to Ireland.

of Montreal’s Kevin Barnes - The Full Monty-Treal
Kevin bares all in this revealing chat about appearing on stage wearing nothing but a cummerbund; stripping off their identity and slipping into their alter ego, Georgie Fruit; but not pulling a Lady Godiva when they brought a horse into the act at the Roseland in New York.

I’ve listened to every episode. Alex and Alan have me laughing out loud every time. Great guests and incredible stories. I highly recommend this podcast.
Relatable!
I knew I would love hearing all the crazy behind the scenes stories from my favorite bands. What I didn’t know was that the stories would also entail such thoughtfulness about how perseverance, drive, happenstance and creativity helped them get from one place to the next. I love hanging out with all of them! Listen to one episode and you’ll be hooked, and even if you’re not familiar with the guests I guarantee you will be soon.
Exclusive insight and loads of fun!!!!! I ♥️ TMEP
“We were being original when that wasn’t a sin”
Keller and Hoffman’s podcast is a space for geeks to geek, and truths to truth. With DEVO’s very own Jerry Casale, they discuss the paradigm shift from substance to style in the 1980s music world, the value of collaboration, and commercialization in art. Getting these sentimental and hilarious spinal tap stories & musings from the horse’s mouth is so special, and so worth the listen.
