    Hootie and the Blowfish performing an old song. So PJ doesn't need to be promoting something to come back to the show.

    Twenty bucks says Richard Simmons makes an appearance.

    Extra ten for Chris Elliott - but only if he does The Banana Song.

    if only he could come out from under the steps where the audience is. But that's in the old Late Night studio.

    as much as i am not a hootie fan, it was cool seeing them as we know dave loves them for some reason. but wouldn't we have heard by now if pj was performing? i thought they announced all the guests already? no?


    and this is kind of weird, but does anyone else feel a little sad watching these shows, not just because there's only a few weeks left, but because you just know dave is going to go away for good and not be in the limelight anymore so it's most likely the last time he will ever see any of these people again. you get the sense that's what he's thinking during these interviews...

    especially when Jack Hannah started to cry at the end.

    So pretty! Thank you for this, Hobbes.

    I always thought Zevon carried himself as a gentle man and a class act.

    Did you ever catch his appearance on the Larry Sanders show? Good stuff.

    I am hoping that PJ returns and plays Black. I believe that was Eddie's first appearance doing a little bit of that song then departing the stage.

    Yes! Love it. That show is genius. (Fuckin' Rip Torn :lol: )

    Dave sharing about Warren's last show...

    "After the show, it was heartbreaking — he was in his dressing room. We were talking and this and that. Here's a guy who had months to live and we're making small talk. And as we're talking, he's taking his guitar strap and hooking it, wrapping it around, then he puts the guitar into the case and he flips the snaps on the case and says, 'Here, I want you to have this, take good care of it.' And I just started sobbing. He was giving me the guitar that he always used on the show. I felt like, 'I can't be in this movie, I didn't get my lines.' That was very tough."

    I believe that he is going to be there and that is the reason for him starting in September.

    here is hoping for another Alan Kalter bit before the shows goes off the air.

    I think it will be re-runs. its just weird that its going to take 4 months to get the place ready.

    President Obama will be on tonight and I am looking forward to seeing the special tonight which apparently will have NBC highlights also

    I don't know how I'm going to feel about no more Dave. I've taken him for granted especially over the past 5 years or so. He's definitely been my favorite late night guy since, well forever. The more I think about it, the sadder I get. Probably because it makes me feel OLD. I'm just turned 37 and all I've ever really watched was Dave and SNL late at night.

    Dave this year and stern next year I think. The mornings and nights will definitely be less funny.

    Really liked the special. it was good review of the past. for a person like Dave, i don't think clips do him justice. the great part of Dave was the "anything can happen" feel to his show.

    anyway, no much longer to go but i can't wait to see how he ends it. I think it will be so much different than Carson last show.
