    Wasn't watching all of Conan and turned it on and he was interviewing Dave and Taylor. Will have to check the encore at 1 my time, hopefully before PJ on Fallon.

    What a boring performance. Not the biggest Foo's fan admittedly, but I usually dig the singles and I've seen alot of much better performances.

    Same thoughts, but the 11/11 DC show for me! Counting down the days! I'm always super pumped for concerts but have only been ridiculously, ridiculously excited like I am for this one for a few other artists!!



    Also, loved the Conan interview! They seem like just the nicest and funniest dudes!
