More Cowbell

The sketch itself, with the great writing, great acting (I particularly enjoy when Gene, played by the great Will Ferrell, says, ‘…and I’d be doing myself a disservice…’) and great set/costumes (after doing the sketch in dress rehearsal with a normal size shirt, Ferrell decided to wear the too-small shirt before the live taping) indeed never gets old.

However, saying “mOre cOwBeLl!!”,  like shouting “FrEeBiRd!!”, got very, very, very old a long, long time ago.

Cowbell is not (c)rap.

Laughter is an involuntary protest to the absurd, ridiculous.  

That's why this is still funny after all these years.

It never gets old. I saw BOC 5 or 6 times in the 70's, they needed more cowbell.

These peoples certainly liked it: 

Interesting.

No Hilarity?!!!

I dunno - I've been a BOC fan since 1972 and I never found this at all amusing.  The band seems to like it, though; saw them once when a band called Covers Girls opened for them, and when they did 'Born to Be Wild', Buck Dharma came running out on stage banging a cowbell....
