The Musical Guest Thread

[monkey neck]

I just figured we could have a thread for us to let each other know when there's a good musical act on late night talk shows , SNL, etc. I've heard of so many good performances and interviews AFTER they've been on, so I'm trying to stop this senseless waste.

With that in mind, Yoko Ono will be on Conan tonight.:D

[monkey neck]

Although I've never heard them yet, the Libertines are on Letterman tonight...

Alkaline Trio - Conan
Mother bitch! I totally planned on getting some sleep tonight! Oh well...I'll stay up late, listening to the new CD until they come on. Then I will pass out. Then I will be late for work.

[IPrayForSound]

Dropkick Murphys are a bunch of Irish workin' class punks from Boston. They're excellent. Punk with bagpipes? Absolutely.

Are they much-ballyhooed? I saw them open for Interpol last year and was fairly underwhelmed. The lead singer/guitarist has mannerisms that are (at times) eerily identical to his father.
