Spinal Tap 'play one-night world tour'

Spinal Tap have announced a unique world tour made up of just one night when they take to the stage at Wembley Arena in London on June 30.

The performance marks the the 25th anniversary of the classic mock-rock-documentary This Is Spinal Tap and follows on the back of the band's out-of-character 'Unwigged' US tour.

Guitarist Nigel Tufnel, played by Christopher Guest, said: "If we're going to do a world tour on only one night, at least it's this world."

Bassist Derek Smalls, aka Harry Shearer, added: "One night is not enough, and it's way too much."

Support at the concert will come from Tap's alter-egos The Folksmen, who starred in their own movie A Mighty Wind.
