I was watching the Simpsons the other day and U2 were on it. And it made me think. After wasting what seems like thousands of hours watching it, how many of the guests had played Glastonbury. I can only think of Spinal Tap and the White Stripes. Anybody else?

1997 & 2010.

Lying about one....  

More importantly, how many Simpsons have you seen at Glasto?

Coldplay and Spinal Tap have both been in it.

Spinal Tap was obviously a huge strain!
