Having seen both Coco's show a few times and Fallon's show in NYC, I think coco was more audience orientated, he came out before taping and interacted with the audience a bunch. Fallon didn't, maybe to get a louder cheer when he first comes out and is being recorded?? The roots play thru the 'commercial break', whereas coco's band just played for ~30 seconds then resumed taping...so you were in and out in way less than an hour once filming started. Fallon's 'commercial breaks' were long because the band would play a whole song pretty much and then he would get into long (funny as hell) tirades with the producer or a camera man or the guest before resuming taping.

Both were/are great shows IMHO. I don't have cable so I dunno how conan's show is doing currently.

 

It's not as good as it was.

 

 

They link block

 

I would rather see Fallon, just so I could see The Roots play. I wish they did more of their own stuff, and less stupid 'talk show-y' stuff, but I guess it is what it is. Even a repertoire like theirs would get tired after a couple of seasons.

 

 

I think they keep pretty busy doing side projects, but I completely agree with you.

Owen Biddle had been killing the jazz-fusion scene. Dude is awesome, playing a 30" scale Callowhill 6 banger!
