It was the battle we’ve all been looking forward to since they squared off (to a degree) in 1979’s The Muppet Movie. Banjo superstar and notoriously funny dud, Steve Martin plays “Dueling Banjos” with/against the swamp’s meanest twanger, Kermit the Frog, in this video from Funny Or Die. Did you know Kermie was a southpaw? Because, he is, apparently. Essentially, it’s the best video you’ll see today.
Love this!! Steve Martin is awesome and Kermit the frog was a childhood favorite!!
Was Kermit voiced by Woody Allen in this video?!
We cant forget about Animal & Buddy Rich’s epic drum battle way back when http://youtu.be/jHOej4eG9i0
Kermit wins, flippers down!
Funny “dud”?
Lilithschilde – you beat me to it! I grew up WISHING I was left handed like Floyd Pepper from the Electric Mayhem… that muppet could rock!
Surely the internet was made for glorious textual media objects such as this.
Most Muppets are left-handed. The puppeteer uses their right hand to control the head which leaves the left for movement. 🙂
