Is that The Simpsons episode where Phish got a mention?  I don't remember them being in it..., I remember something about smoking joints..., I understood the joke, because I knew who Phish were, but none of my friends understood it.

Not prog, but can you class Barbara Streisand in South Park too?

Also in the Simpsons- Sonic Youth, The Smashing Pumpkins, Cypress Hill, Lenny Kravitz, and Tom Petty. In the "Homerpalooza" episode it was great when Peter Frampton says, "You're damn right I'm going to be pissed off! I bought that pig at Pink Floyd's yard sale!"

Also Ronnie James Dio appeared in South Park, playing Holy Diver in their school. It was pretty funny to see the kids dancing at the rythm of this song.

Les Claypool also did the theme song for "Robot Chicken"

and I'm surprised no one mentioned Radiohead's appearance on "South Park"!

I am glad South Park made fun of Phil collins. I got his solo greatest hits as
a Christmas gift, and I hated every song on it. To this day, I am still mad at
Phil Collins for creating my crappy christmas gift.

Rush are mentioned in many different toons:

Check down the list posted on Power Windows Rush Site(most recent at bottom) Rush References In Popular Culture

They must be the most cited Rock band around.

 

Thanks to Power Windows Rush Website

During the South Park episode with Phil Collins they had him sing "You'll be in me" instead of "You'll be in my heart"

It would be great and funny...

I saw Phish too in that episode, U2, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sting and Rolling Stones ...

Phish is the only prog band i think...

But imagine Roger Waters or Phil Collins, or Dream Theater in a Simpson episode... it would be great

Phil Collins appeared in South Park. They made quite a lot of fun of him

 

I Haven´t seen that episode
