Incredibly, Cypress Hill have announced a gig at the Royal Albert Hall with the London Symphony Orchestra… following a 1996 prediction from The Simpsons.
In the episode Homerpalooza, the hip-hop legends booked a show with the LSO (“possibly while high”), and now almost 30 years on, it’s a collaboration that’s actually happening!
“We are thrilled to be performing with the London Symphony Orchestra in such a prestigious venue as the Royal Albert Hall,” say Cypress Hill. “It’s a dream come true, a collaboration only The Simpsons could have predicted.”
“After years of social media teasing it, many fans may have started to believe it would only be a pipedream,” adds managing director Kathryn McDowell DBE, “but the LSO is delighted to finally be joining Cypress Hill onstage and in person, and look forward to creating an unforgettable musical moment! Many thanks to the creators of The Simpsons for the idea and to AEG Artisitc and PolyArts for making it all happen.”
The gig is taking place on July 10, with tickets going on sale this Wednesday, March 27 at 10am.
