If the Hip ever appeared on The Muppet Show... - Stephen Dame - 06-18-2004

I'm tired, and before I go to bed, I figured I'd post what we're all thinking: If the Hip had been on the Muppet Show in the late 70's, early 80's, which Muppet would you have wished to see them perform with?

In a skit, the answer is of course Fozzy Bear. As Fozzy was, and remains, the greatest Muppet there ever was. Fozzy gives us so much: He's a cuddly bear, he's got a really cool old school press fedora, and he's a stand-up comic. If Fozzy were a politician, I'd vote for him twice.

As for musical performance: Animal might give Johhny a run for his money, and that guy with the sax kinda looks like Bobby...

Here's a crazy thought....

What about the two old guys in the balcony? I can't remember their names. One was Waldorf. (The other Astoria.....?)

:lol:

Ah... One of the GREAT bar trivia questions of all time. I'll let it simmer as I hit the hay...

Now don't cheat... NO GOOGLE!

Who can name the other Old Guy?

Since Animal was modelled after Keith Moon, I'd have to give him the nod!

Personally I'd love to see them play "The Wherewithal" with Animal on the drums. Johnny would have to make do with a tambourine.
