Corkus Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I love The Simpsons. I love Coldplay. It's too bad The Simpsons hasn't given a guest band appearance any proper justice since U2. The quality of the series has suffered since the late 90's, and even though they occasionally put out a great episode, I can't help but feel an appearance by Chris is gonna turn out tacked-on. Metallica, The White Stripes, R.E.M., Blink 182, The Rolling Stones, and The Dixie Chicks have all appeared recently, and their appearances all sucked (I suppose the Rolling Stones appearance wasn't terrible). If this seems pessimistic, make no mistake that if they do it right, I will be so, so happy. :D And I am looking forward to seeing him (and possibly the rest of the band) in yellow animated form (haha, he should sing "Yellow" just for irony). Damn yellow family can't get me to stop watching over a decade after its demise. :veryangry2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if R.E.M. has been in more than one episode, but the one I'm thinking of is hilarious. They play for Homer in his garage-bar and while they sing the verse of "End of the World As We Know It" Homer just sings random gibberish. Then when they found out the gig wasn't some charity benefit Michael Stipe almost stabbed Homer. :lol: Here's part of the appearance: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIrmr_KsP0E]YouTube - The simpsons - Homer the moe FUNNY[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to do something as funny as when they had Bono call out security to beat up Homer on the big screen while playing "Pride (In the Name of Love)".

They need to do something as funny as when they had Bono call out security to beat up Homer on the big screen while playing "Pride (In the Name of Love)". They had Glen Hansard in one episode. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH8R5evLJ3s]YouTube - Falling Slowly[/ame] Anyone who really knows Glen will get that and why it's funny. And that's from a real new episode.
