2. Duly noted.
I haven't listened to much of their stuff, but what I've heard I've liked.

3. I was supposed to see them in November when they opened for Rise Against
but my aunt was chatty and then I missed my junction and wound up on the wrong freeway, so I got there just in time to see Thrice. Who were fucking awesome, by the way.

Okay, that had nothing to do with anything...

5. Rise Against was awesome, but
When I watched them, I posted here how good they were. Incredible.

7. I will keep that in mind, since Letterman isn't on here for another hour.
Now go tell me if the shoes I'm thinking about buying are cute, would you?

16. Thanks for that. I'd never heard of these guys.
I'm always on the lookout for new music that I'll like. Unfortunately, musical tastes are so subjective that most of the time when someone recommends a band, I rarely find them all that interesting. But this is a great tune, masterfully done.

14. I give Dave much respect.
I'm glad he did this. I'm an old-school idiot. I'll have Dave on even though Colbert is on. But, I can catch Colbert on a "rerun" the next night.

11. Am listening to them as I write this---Fantastic!
I'd never heard of them before... hey ,I'm 57 yrs old and not in the loop that much anymore, but still love great rock and/or roll, and this was the real deal.

12. I had never heard of them either before they opened for Rise Against.
After I heard that talent...how incredible. Glad to see them on Dave's show.

17. By coincidence (or not) just got my regular email update from BruceSpringsteen.net
and there's a video of the guy from Gaslight Anthem doing Springsteen's Backstreets (solo acoustic).
