Entertainment News : The 23 Best 'Simpsons' Musician Cameos

When we heard 'The Simpsons' was on the verge of cancellation, we started reminiscing about all the rockers and rappers that have appeared on the show throughout its 23-season existence. With that in mind, we decided to compile this list of our favorite musician cameos, and here's hoping to many more now that the show has been renewed.

Homer Simpson is one of the cartoon world's greatest wannabe rockers, so when he lands himself in the Rolling Stones' Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy camp, he's naturally over the moon. Homer is put under the tutelage of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Elvis Costello, Lenny Kravitz, Tom Petty and Brian Setzer. His summer camp sessions pay off in the end, when he winds up setting Principal Skinner on fire. Rock 'n' roll, indeed.
