Clip of Jim Henson and Kermit in 1987 Parade

Over at www.x-entertainment.com Matt has a report on the 1987 Macy's Thanksgiving Parade. In it he has a short clip of Jim Henson and Kermit talking to Willard Scott (with the Kermit balloon behind them). Here's the link to the Parade report:

Neat site. I wish the "Starlight Express" clip showed more. I've got the music to it and want to know what the show was like.

OMG that was so cool, I think I actually remember that parade! Great to see a live performance by Jim w/Kermit. Funny how Willard Scott wasn't sure where to hold the microphone during Kermits' acceptance speech!

The Jim Henson/Kermit clip was awesome! What had me rolling though was the review of the Marvel float. It was hilarious! I read the review and then I watched the clip...very funny stuff.

Amazing how much Henson's real voice sounded like that of his signature character.

I kept yelling at my computer screen...IT'S KERMIT THAT'S TALKING YOU IDIOT!

That's unbelieveably awesome thanks for passing that along. I noticed they were playing Rainbow Connection instead of The Muppet Show Theme Song like they have been for the past few years.
