Yeah, the Ruin and Misfits covers were sick. I certainly wasn't expecting a mini-hardcore set from them as they didn't do that back in 2010.

I need to get him home as early as possible since he has school on Monday, so we'll probably just bail when the show is over. I'm sure learning the "fuck nostalgia" chant will more than make up for it

Fair enough, but they have been on national TV before. I remember them appearing on something in 2010, but they hadn't been on national TV since the mid '90s IIRC.

Me or scannest? I don't care who's playing bass for them, honestly. They're all about Mac and Jon (as scannest has stated).

Eh. I stand by what I said above. Most people I've talked to / read opinions from online said that they thought the Bob Mould clips from the late shows last year were also among the best on TV. I'm usually not too into bands on late night shows...customarily sounds pretty weak.
Nice pic, though.

Sorry, that was meant to be a good-natured ribbing. I'm not trying to give you a hard time.

For that particlar month it aired? Absoutely. But are you talking all-time greatest television performance by a rock band?

Name some good TV performances, though. I honestly can't think of many.
