Ever wonder what will happen during the last five minutes of late-night TV talk shows? Here are tonight’s notable performers:
Late Show With David Letterman (CBS): Green Day
Late Late Show (CBS): The Decemberists
CBS has all your divergent musical tendencies covered. Green Day’s got a 21st Century Breakdown; the Decemberists have the 19th century on fetishized lockdown. Colin Meloy? Doing the ’60s-folk revival. Billie Joe? Reviving ’70s punk since the ’90s. It’s Dookie-ness followed by bookishness.
