I couldn't afford the post benefit tix either, so don't feel bad. Either way it's going to be a PHENOMENAL show, and I'm really looking forward to it.

I don't feel bad! Being in the presence of legends is nothing to feel bad about. :smile:

What is that video of Rowlf from, where he's wearing a watch? Anyone?

That's the video in one of the behind the scenes montages (Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson? Secrets of the Muppets?) where the camera pulls wide to reveal Jim performing! Wonder what the sketch is?

Warrick,

That was the pre-show to the old 'Here come the Muppets" show at Disney MGM studios. the show itself was a 15 min performance with walk-around Muppets (Kermit, PIggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Bean, and the EM band). But the presehow was this hilarious bit featuring Rowlf and Sam with Rowlf basically singing various songs (Lydia the Tattooed Lady, etc) and Sam interrupting and interjecting.

Anyway, if you look closely you can see Rowlf wearing a watch which he used to keep track of how much time was left before the show.

Oh I see! I have wondered for YEARS about where this clip came from, thanks!!

Now, I wonder if anyone ever recorded it on a camcorder?!
