In case you missed it, Van Halen made an appearance on last night's South Park.
Well, sort of. The animated version of the band — complete with Wolfgang on bass — rocked a fictional world peace celebration in Jerusalem.
Three religious leaders, standing under the symbols of Islam, Judaism and Christianity, announce, "Today begins the new Israel. Today, we are all united as one. ... Now let us celebrate under one symbol!"
