There's a rumor on The Simpsons forum that Al, in addition to doing a commentary, will also be in a feature about the music of the show.

Guest stars Weird Al Yankovic as himself, Scott Thompson as Grady, Terry W. Greene as Julio, and Ben Schatz (Weird Al band member) as himself.
Ben Schatz? Could they mean "Bermuda Schwartz" with that?

According to Google there's a famous Ben Schatz who's a Harvard-educated lawyer, drag queen, and gay rights activist. Does he have a cameo in the episode somewhere?

I believe he's playing Homer's hairdresser.

For whatever reason, a couple of online databases concerning the show have credited that name to Al's band because it looks similar to Bermuda's name, but that has to merely just be the contribution of an ignorant Simpsons fan. There is no reason to give the band a group pseudonym, especially since the show itself put a ban on that practice after the Michael Jackson episode.

Believe it or not, but online user-edited databases aren't infallible (I know, gasp!). I once came upon an IMDb credit for Stanley Brock ("UHF") that claimed it was actually Peter Boyle using a pseudonym.

EDIT TO ADD: For further proof that the above cast list is incorrect, look at the credit for the character of Julio...um, that's clearly Hank Azaria spoofing his own role in "The Birdcage."
