Sixties-Something error?

Sixties-Something error?

Post by zmster »

Although I've heard it..a dozen times or more, I just noticed that Bart call's The Electric Palace The Electric Castle.
Was it an error or did he call it that at other times before they settled into TEP?

...but what would be the point of renaming it Castle over Palace due to the 60's? :-k

Because he's selling guitars and amplifiers so he renamed the store Rathbone's Electric Castle and Rock n' Roll Instruments of Destruction. That Bart, he's good with names.

(BTW-this means there's an error on Odysseyscoop.com in the FAQs.)

This still doesn't explain replacing Palace with Castle. :noway:

I'm certain they did it on purpose, even if it doesn't make complete sense.

I was always pretty sure that it was a mistake, because it was the first episode after if was built, and all throughout the episode it's referred to as The Electric Castle.

I was powering my two-wheeler along this concrete pathway, when your personnage suddenly appeared directly in front of me blocking my course. My reflexes immediately sprang to life in an attempt to navigate an evasive manouveur around you while still maintaining course and speed, but I evidently over-compensated, and my Schwinn careened off the hardened path, taking me with it, and up-ended us both in this shrub, a Rhododendron of the heath family I believe, deducing from the leathery evergreen leaves, as distinguished from the deciduous Azalea, which as we all know is..."
Isaac-"You mean, you crashed into this bush cause I got in your way."

LM, the reason it's reffered to as the electric castle is because, as Steve said it is a shortened version of The Rathbone's Electric Castle and Rock n' Roll Instruments of Destruction. He renamed it.

I always thought they got the Electric Palace and Blackgaard's Castle mixed up.

Nope. Bart just renamed his shop the Elecric Castle etc... as an avertising rampage he was currently on...and still isn't off of. :)

Maybe cause "castle" sounds old and rugged, more like classic rock 'n roll would be..."palace" has a more refined sound.

It could just be a goof on the writer's part or it could be some obscure 60's reference.
