Would that be the TCB band?

I'm glad he's going to be on Fallon's show.
Leno and Letterman are so old that I might
as well be watching reruns of Johnny Carson.

I'd like him to get to sit down with the host one of these times, like he did with Letterman a long time ago.

Leno and Letterman are so old that I might
as well be watching reruns of Johnny Carson.


But Lindsey's fans are kind of old too. So, it works. I hate Leno, love Letterman, but would be thrilled to be watching Carson reruns every night actually. I want the whole show though, not some of those stupid "Best Of" videos.

I realize they're about the same age as Lindsey, but I just
think it's time for a change. Jimmy's great in his time slot.
Letterman used to be my favorite. But he's become so bitter,
that I can hardly watch him. Leno might as well be doing
vaudeville. New blood people, new blood.

Can someone tell me who Jimmy Fallon is, what he does?

When I was over in LA last week he was EVERYWHERE I looked - on advertisements, doing a presentation video on the Universal Studios Backlot Tour.

Never heard of him before - is he a popular celeb?

He hosts Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, the time slot he took over from Conan when he left to take over The Late Show from Jay Leno. Fallon was a regular on Saturday Night Live before the move. He's hilarious. He does great impressions of rock stars - Neil Young is one of my favs. Stevie was on his show when he first started.

Well, as far as our talk show hosts go, he's on the bottom rung as far as ratings. But a few years ago when Tina Fey was writing for SNL and Amy Poehler was on it, Jimmy Fallon was really hot at the time. He did a movie or two. It looked like he might be one of those not ready for prime time players who would break out.

I just got back, so I can get in first with this performance. Incidentally, everyone now has to watch it as I think (couldn't tell for sure with the camera angles) I may well be CENTER back of stage for the entire song...

If you don't want to know what song he did (not IOOT), go away now.

He did End Of Time! (Next single? Best prepared? Just felt like it? No idea.) No pre-song or post-song chatter. Other guests were Heidi Klum and some really really lame comedian. Then they started setting up the stage for LB and marched us "Band Bench" people to this scaffolding setup directly behind the peformance area. For whatever reason, the guy chose me to stand on the second level of scaffolding RIGHT in the CENTER (on the left end). I saw the tech guy Stan (from those other videos) walking around with an RS6, and then Brett appeared from somewhere. Suddenly, there's LB, smiling and whooping at us folks in the scaffolds! I gave him two thumbs up before descending into nonstop clapping, so maybe he noticed me? It's Halloween, and some people were wearing costumes - LB was very interested in this girl right at the front wearing cat ears or something, and mimed cat ears on his head to show he liked it. He whooped and cheered at us a few times before heading to the mic. Neale came out of nowhere and seemed uninterested in us. Wally was literally within touching distance. He had a tray of percussion things next to his kit - I wonder if he thought he'd be using them? When the song started, I spent a while clapping on every beat like some other people, but my hands got tired. So I switched to trying to sway (like one of Stevie's backup singers) like the girl at the right end of the scaffold was doing, and eventually ended up doing god-knows-what while mouthing/singing-under-my-breath every word of the song. LB was so close, I could see his bald spot in the back and JUST HOW TIGHT those jeans are (plus how damn skinny he is!). When the song was done, Jimmy Fallon came over and shook everyone's hand, while we all kept cheering. Once the camera was off him, LB cheered and whooped at us another few times before going STRAIGHT backstage. Brett waved at us, and only some people (me included) waved back. Wally looked like he was going to be friendly, and since he was still holding his drumsticks, I thought I would ask for one if he came over, but then he just went backstage too. Neale disappeared as quickly as he appeared on stage. Then they shooed us all back to the regular seats and then threw us out of taping. :rolleyes:

Anyway, yay! Look for me on the show please! I posted my picture here, and I was wearing a purple-tie-die-ish long sleeved shirt with black designs on the front, jeans, and New Balance sneakers (though I doubt those got on camera!). :cool:

Ooh, that song's quite a surprise. Nice to know that Lindsey kind of interacted with the studio audience the same way he does with his concert audience, cat ears and all:laugh:.

Great review. Thank you!

No problem. Being (as far as I know) the only Ledgie there, I figured I might as well pass on anything I noticed.

If there'd been pre-song chat, maybe he would've explained why he chose that song. But yeah, he seemed just as psyched that there were us idiots clustered together behind him on a mini-stage as he does for whole (or nearly-full... :rolleyes:) theatres full of people waiting to see him. If he hadn't been on a schedule, I wouldn't be surprised if he'd spent more time with us - shaking hands or whatever.

As for that tweeted photo, I think that might just be generic "LB live" promo material. :shrug:

I honestly don't know what shirt he had on - I didn't register it during the short time he was facing the back wall, and the rest of the time I stared at the back of his head! He still had the jacket though. But the stage wasn't as dark as that picture; that's why I don't think it was a live shot.

Nope. WYSIWYG. :shrug:

My mom watched it with me and asked why he chose such a downbeat, depressing song...


Thanks iamnotafraid. I honestly don't think you can see anyone, but it IS possible the idiot flailing their hands all over who's vaguely visible at times is me. I was right to the right of Wally and probably WAS flailing my hands like an idiot.

Thanks for putting up the video. Fallon's site has the episode up, but it always plays jerky for me. Was that a vinyl copy of the album he was holding up, or just a large print? It was a great performance, but something with more intensity would have been nice for late night, in my opinion.

i was wondering about that too, probably just a large print.

here's the link to the whole episode on Fallon website (plays fine for me) - lindsey comes on ~34-35 mins:

Lindsey Buckingham Visits Fallon

Nov 1st '11 by tom @ 10:36am

Last night, Cali-rock triple-O.G. Lindsey Buckingham graced Late Night With Jimmy Fallon with his presence, performing “End Of Time,” a smooth wailer from new album Seeds We Sow and bringing the same cool weathered professionalism that he showed on Conan a couple of months ago. Watch it below.

Seeds We Sow is out now on Buckingham Records.

It was a large print. He read the entire introduction off giant cardboard cue cards (and it sounds less wooden on TV than it did at the time) - they probably just glued the picture on the back of one of those.

Press I've seen calls EOT a "smooth wailer." Um, OK... but not a particularly memorable one for a TV show, is it? :shrug:

I liked it! I like his little smirk at the end. Reminds me of his older, crazier days when I wanted to punch him for it, but now find endearing.

(If that was actually in English...I have no idea. I'm having a rough day!)

Yes, since TTWLG gets a good concert response, I would think that's the way to go. I think IOOT and End of Time should have been titled differently. The titles are too similar.

I loved his performance. His voice sounded GREAT. Very deep in parts that I wasn't prepared for. lol! I love this song soooooo much. Just beautiful.

Ok, that comedian was absolutely horrible. I was switching channels just to avoid him, only I'd come back so I wouldn't miss LB. How is that loser so acclaimed? He was dreadful and JF looked like he knew it.

LB made it all worth it though.

and, there is a lot of usage of word "mind" all over different songs...

it seems almost like whoever was choosing the name for LB's record company made a cloud of all the words on SWS and mind came up as the largest one so they decided "let's use that one!" - i do like "Mind Kit Records" much better than "Buckingham Records".

'Kit' is definitely for Kristen. It's cute how they both include each other in their respective work: LB using her nickname for part of his label and her...naming furniture after him.
