Five times The Simpsons was right, as Cypress Hill confirm they’ll perform with the London Symphony Orchestra
Cypress Hill have confirmed they will perform alongside an orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall this summer, once more realising a joke made on The Simpsons.
The cartoon has become famous for gags which have become real-life events in the years that followed. And it appears the writers struck gold with 1996 episode Homerpalooza, where rap group Cypress Hill collaborate with the London Symphony Orchestra.
In the series seven episode, Homer finds his size makes him perfect cannon fodder – or, more accurately, he is large enough to take a hit from a cannonball and survive as part of a travelling music festival’s sideshow.
