check out November's MOJO magazine for a 9-page spread. Original cast talk about the making of This is Spinal Tap. Cherie's scenes are mentioned along with a sweet little pic of our Currie Queen. here is what is said:

Christopher Guest: There was a very big sub-plot with a band that was supoed to be opening for us. Cherie Currie (from The Runaways) was the lead singer of this group called The Dose.

Harry Shearer: Ian's trying to see us on this band package and we go, 'Oh shit, what are you talking about? This is a stupid idea.' Then we see the girl and go, 'Whoah!'

Guest: When you cut to her she had this big herpes sore on her lip. And you would see us on the bus, periodically we'd each pop up with a sore.

Rob Reinder: Finally, there's a band meeting where four of the guys have herpes sors and they decide they want to drop The Dose from the tour. And the drummer, the only guy without a herpes sore, says, 'Why? I like them, they're good.' Because he obviously hasn't slept with her yet.

Gust: What remains is that scene where the camera pans across and you see us with these sores. A journalist said to me, 'I think it's interesting that one of the sub-plots is that Nigel and David are gay.'
