Friday, June 5th, Supergroup Chicken Foot (who, if you've forgotten, consists of ex-Van Halen singer Sammy Hagar, ex-Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony, drummer Chad Smith of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and guitarist Joe Satriani.).

What are the odds of getting MicNicPicMicNic on there the second week?! (Pretty sure i just messed up the saying and spelling of that...and they may have new members now I'm forgetting!)
He's this soulless bastard from Siberia. I once saw him shove Fred Savage's face in a toilet.

Talk about starting off on the wrong note!

(get it, "note"?  Music?)

They need to get rid of Satriani, and replace him with two guitarists: Bumblefoot and Buckethead. Those two are a natural fit, as their presence would reinforce the central core themes of the band: feet, and chicken.

I think this can all be arranged before June 5th. Get to work, fellas.

Well, Satriani was still there. At the end of the song, Satriani presented Conan with his guitar as a gift.

Context: Just a few days previous, the guys from Green Day gave Conan a guitar.

Conan was markedly less excited by Satriani's gift, a custom guitar with the dumb Chickenfoot logo on it. You could hear him on mic saying "oh no, you don't have to do that" ... and you could see him thinking "Oh god, PLEASE DON'T DO THAT!".

I guess now that Conan is hosting The Tonight Show, the odds of ever seeing Jonathan Richman on a television show again are slim and none.

Why, exactly?

He isn't on television all that much to begin with. But Conan did have him on several times. I don't imagine you'll see Jonathan Richman on The Tonight Show.

Late Night actually introduced me to a lot of great bands, like Guided by Voices.

Jonathan Richman lives in San Francisco ... I would hope that Conan would make an effort to invite some old friends onto the new show.

Isn't this William B. Thorton's band?
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

They really sucked. Anthony's just untalented, and Hagar's about 20 years past his 4-6 week prime, but I had hopes that Satriani could pull off something; whether you like his style or not, that guy's seriously talented. But it just sucked from start to finish. I can't imagine they will even be a band a year from now. So, supergroup, I guess.

Just got my first taste of the new chickenfoot album.  What an absolute trainwreck of sub-moronic cliches & totally recycled music.   "She can drive when I get wasted.  A stoners dream on A Friday night. Jump on it.  I love, love, love my sexy little thing."- Sexy Little Thing, Track 3.  I expected it to be bad, it far exceeded my expectations.  If you liked "Blueberries For Breakfast", you'll love this heap of garbage.  A Hilarious mess.  You can listen to the album for free at http://www.chickenfoot.us/listeningparty/

It hurts my ears just to read your description.
