SSPU Do Dave

The Silversun Pickups were on Letterman last night (still) performing "Panic Switch." Such a catchy tune and their performance was spot on. I was particularly delighted to see a lot of close up of bassist Nikki Monninger throughout their performance. Good call Late Show director!

The Love Affair Continues

Last night I watched Uncle Dave as he interviewed the always grating Drew Barrymore just waiting to hear what Neko Case was going to sing.  Her live version of "This Tornado Loves You" was very impressive.  However, what I couldn't help but notice was the phalanx of back up singers.  She usually just employs Kelly Hogan (the one of the left) and Kelly didn't seem to happy to share the back up spotlight with a bunch of Suzy Come-Lately's.  

Mr. Tip on Letterman

So, last night I saw Q-Tip was going to be on Letterman and I set the trusty ol' DVR to record.  I was tired and couldn't stay up and watch it.  Hey, I was tired!  So, I gots up this morning eager to watch it.  I fast forwarded through most of Ben Stiller and got to Tip.  I got to see the first minute of his performance.  I hate it when a show runs late and the DVR isn't smart enough to keep recording.  Idiot.  

So, through the magic of the interweb I get to see it on my laptop.  He put on a solid performance even giving a shout out to Dave.
