[edit] History

This is Spinal Tap was started on February 10, 2007 as a reincarnation of the guild The Aristocrats, a casual guild on the Zul'jin server. The Aristocrats was founded on January 1st of the same year, but most of the high-profile members opted for a transfer to leave the highly populated server for greener pastures, and the guild was subsequently disbanded. Four of the original members still remain: Sarane, Segovia (Wiggletooth), Jwagner, and Bigblackj. Both guilds started with the idea of small group of players helping each other navigating the ins and outs of WoW. Since then, the idea has remained the same, but the small group has evolved to a much larger collection of players.
