|
|
Homer! Barney! Seymour! Apu! My favorite quartet! I knew you'd still be hanging out together at the barbershop!
|
|
What? We're not hanging out...are we?
|
|
We just happen to be getting haircuts at the same time.
|
|
*belches* Pure coincidence.
|
|
Yeah, and Mother thinks she's the only one who cuts my hair — so if anyone asks: I was never here.
|
|
Oh, well, I just assumed since the "Be Sharps" were a Barbershop Quartet and now all four of you are sitting here at a barbershop that—
|
|
Who the heck are you? A fan of ours or something?
|
|
*chuckles* No, it's me, Nigel! I was the "Be Sharps" manager, remember?!
|
|
Oh yeah! You're that Austrian guy!
|
|
*coughs* Australian. But I can be Austrian. I went on a "Sound of Music Tour" once. I even signed a Von Trapp Cover Choir.
|
|
Sure you did...
|
|
And now, I'm back to sign you guys for "The Be Sharps Reunion Tour"!
|
|
Forget it, Manager-I-Don't-Really-Remember! All the Be Sharps ever gave us was fame, fortune, and a bunch of platinum records that don't work when you put them in a record player.
|
|
And even if we did reunite, nobody wants to listen to a barbershop quartet anymore. It's so passé.
|
|
Well, there must be something you guys would be interested in singing.
|
|
I said "forget it!" Or at least I think I did — it was 3 or 4 taps ago...
|
|
Well, if you change your mind, you'll get a moderate signing bonus and your own tour bus with an operational air hockey table inside.
|
|
Well, I suppose I could mull it over...if I had a beer in my hand.
|
|
I, too, would like to reconsider...with a beer in my hand.
|
|
Oh, and my girlfriend will have a single plum, floating in perfume, served in a man's hat.
|
|
You're already back with Yoko?!
|
|
She inspires me.

|
Have you guys thought about singing sea shanties? Those are all the rage now!
|
|
SOON MAY THE SPRINGFIELDIAN COME / TO STEAL OUR SUGAR, TEA AND RUM
|
|
That's more in his wheelhouse.
|
|
What about hard-driving rock ballads?!
|
|
*sings* HOPIN' FOR A DRE-EAM! HOPIN'! / FOCUS LIKE A LASER BEAM / I'LL KEEP FIGHTING TILL I WANT SOMETHING GREAT
|
|
No? Okay. Your loss.
|
|
There must be some kind of old timey music that people are into now... Gregorian chants? Protest songs? 1950s commercial jingles?
|
|
Nigel, why are you so desperate to try to get the Be Sharps back together?
|
|
Yeah! Leave the past in the past!
|
|
Well, the truth is, I lost all my money in the Metaverse, and my only skills are managing and mismanaging musical groups...
|
|
But if you guys aren't interested, that's all right. I mean, how hard could it be to find the next big thing in little, ol' Springfield? Like Sea Captain for example...?
|
|
My only manager's the sea — and the sea's tellin' me to "regretfully pass".
