The Public is fickle, esp. when the act is over 50 and not in spandex. And that to me was sad. But, that is the way it was.

Damn skippy. When they made those appearances, I didn't even think they were the same band. I mean, even the AOL session songs weren't very good. But nothing beats the Today Show and Leno for sheer awfulness. Remember the threads from last year after they made those appearances? I think every one of us ripped them new assholes.
And the Leno shows planted the seeds of inspiration for the song parodies.
