Late night music.
January 13th, 2009 by Leilani Polk in News, TVI usually end up finding out too late when a band I like (or am interested in checking out) is playing on any of the four late night comedy talk shows (I’ve left out Carson Daly and Jimmy Kimmel because really, do any of us care about what either of them are doing in the wee hours of the night, even if it includes music? 
Nothing even worthy of watching later, even with the cable rejects on fast foward.
But I digress. While I was cruising the web and trying to find appearance schedules for Letterman, Leno, O’Brien and Ferguson (the Scottishman turned U.S. citizen for those of you who don’t watch his mildly charming antics), I found this nifty site that posts exactly the information I desire. So, as a service to you, dear readers, I’ve weeded out all the detritus (The View, Live with Regis and Kelly, Ellen DeGeneres Show, Chelsea Lately) as well as all the news-politics-irony programs (The Daily Show, The Colbert Report) to bring you a strictly musician-based breakdown of appearances after the jump. You can thank me later, in the comments section (down at the bottom).

And if you missed some episodes when they originally aired in December or you wanna see them again (and don’t necessarily feel like watching them on the CBS website with the annoying advertisements it makes you sit through), Letterman takes an Inauguration Week vacation and offers reruns in his place.
