1. He's shown his guitar playing over the years

One time Springsteen came on the Late Night show and they went into this 20 min long song and Conan got on a guitar and started playing to. It was pretty cool.

He also played Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix, played and sang Creep by Radiohead, and sang Sabotage by the Beastie Boys (Edith Bunker-style).

8. Reason #479 NBC is a fourth place network
They are so anal about their copyright that they won't allow even the tiniest clip to "go viral" which would actually be the best free advertising money could buy.

Penny-wise = pound-foolish.

Thanks for the video.

7. When Chickenfoot played on the show, Satriani gave him the guitar he played that night.
I was disappointed that he didn't play it in the "Free Bird" finale...but I'm sure he had his reasons.

That clip...Chickenfoot performing "Oh Yeah"...can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TT19cB0NTM

The gift-giving can be seen at the end.

:toast:

11. Conan interviewed about music and his guitar collection
Edited on Mon Jan-25-10 06:20 AM by pokerfan
which is a cooler hobby than collecting cars, imo.
