Few things....

1. Love that Ryan Adams played an oldie last night on his last Letterman performance.
2. Love the guitar player's Big Star shirt.
3. LOVE that Ryan gets a little emotional at the end. Playing New York, New York on Letterman kinda launched his solo career. He's a big Letterman fan.

I reckon Ed'll be pulling out all the stops.

He'll probably write a new song for the appearance. Then they'll put it up on the site as side A of the 2015 Holiday Single.

Yeah, that sounds about right.

Thematically I think that Can't Keep or Long Road would be a fantastic choice but he'll probably go with Black.

EV is usually in top notch form for tv performances, so i except nothing less. dmb played letterman last week and played the first song they ever played on letterman, 'what would you say'. i wouldnt be surprised if ed plays 'black' w/ paul schaffer's band backing him up since thats what he did on his first appearance on letterman.

PJ was not on Letterman during the Ten/VS days?

I think Hail Hail was PJ first Letterman appearance. The Black performance was really dumb, imo. It was just Ed walking out when Paul & CBS Orchestra began playing it. It's like Ed jumped into character outta nowhere and just turned on his emotions like a switch. I think they only played a snippet, too, and then he just waved and left the stage.

Ed coming out to sing four lines of Black was awesome.
