I have a new found respect for Jimmy Fallon after seeing him here. I always thought he was kinda goofy on SNL but it seems he has some pretty good acting chops after all. This is a dead on impersonation of Uncle Neil. Check it out:

    hahahahaha that was amazing.

    Fallon is a pretty good guitar player. his show started off pretty eh, but, this as an example, it's getting to be pretty good.

    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    Holy SHIT... He bugs the hell out of me but that was impressive.

    Anyone who hasn't done so should follow the link to Belushi as Joe Cocker, too. I never don't laugh at that. Classic and brilliant.

    haha... I happened to catch his show right after coming back from a late night at work. I never see his show, and when I turned on the TV it said "Neil Young!" and I thought to myself "perfect timing".

    ...and I swore, it took me about 10 good seconds to figure out it was not him.

    Fallon, kudos.
