SDCC Friday: The Big Bang Theory Panel: Barnaked Ladies Appear LIVE
Row M is covering Comic Con this weekend in San Diego. The latest moment of fun happened just after noon on Friday, as Ballroom 20's sizeable crowd was treated to a surprise appearance by The Barenaked Ladies who appeared to open the "Big Bang Theory" panel by playing their popular theme song from the show, which they wrote and perform on the program. Lyric sheets were passed out to the audience, who were invited by panel moderator, Wil Wheaton (regular, not evil Wil Wheaton) to sing along to the longer three verse version of theme.
The panel is still underway as we post this article, but Row M's HD video of the sing-along theme will be posted to this item soon, so check back for a look at what it was like to be there in Row M, the best seat in the house!
