The Bruce Dickinson
"More cowbell" is an American pop culture catchphrase originally derived from an April 8, 2000, Saturday Night Live comedy sketch which fictionalized the recording of the song "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" by Blue Öyster Cult. The sketch featured guest host Christopher Walken as music producer "The Bruce Dickinson" (as opposed to Iron Maiden singer Bruce Dickinson) and regular cast member Will Ferrell, who wrote the sketch, as fictional cowbell player Gene Frenkle.
