I feel especially honoured by that fantastic group. In 2009,  when doing the 
Triumph Trans AmeriCan charity drive, ISOA put on an incredible event when I 
visited Joe PAWLAK and his team of busted knuckles who had previously rebuilt 
the Stag I was driving. The group was very much in evidence and sang an adapted 
song from its repertoire called â??Johnnys got a brand new Stagâ??. Brought a 
CD home and played it to a bunch of TR Register arrogant, PITA stuffshirts here 
in the U.K. who claimed the material was sacrilegious to Triumph etc etc. I 
applaud the Spinal Tappets, as did many other *older* members of other U.K. 
clubs have heard and enjoyed that same CD. Too many younger ones just donâ??t 
get it / see the songs as mickey taking and especially so if they own a car of 
the same model. Vive les Spinal Tappets even though I believe theyâ??ve 
disbanded. Sad, they were great.
