Simpsons - Phish

Glide Magazine has written it best:

Page McConnell has been tapped to make a special appearance tomorrow in Springfield, Vermont for the premiere of the Simpsons Movie. The sleepy town in Vermont recently beat out 13 other Springfields to win the honors of hosting the “hometown” premiere.

The Chairman of the Boards will be performing as part of the yellow carpet/VIP gathering before the movie begins. I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought it just wouldn’t be a true Vermont affair without a member of the popular rock band Phish. What symbolizes the headiness of that state more than The Phish from Vermont? Perhaps Page can convince some of his former bandmates to join him. Groening and the movie’s director David Silverman will be among those flying in from the Simpsons’ main office in California for the event.
