David Lee Roth "Rocks" The Late Late Show
David Lee Roth continues his national media blitz with a performance of Craig Ferguson's Late Late Show
(A.P.) Hell, Mich. - Roth Army World Headquarters
Roth on the second of three Late Nights. Of course, on Tuesday, he was on a major player in The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Granted, Leno sucks, and the show wasn’t that much better, but Roth came out and performed…doing what he does best, saving a sorry ass show from front to back shit.
On Thursday, Roth showed up on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Ferguson is quirky, to say the least. I can’t stand most of his show, and can’t imagine much of America does, although he does do a couple of different segments that are actually pretty funny…mostly when he’s making fun of himself and others from the British Isles (Michael Caine and Sean Connery top the list). That being said, Ferguson at least had someone do some homework for him, as he asked appropriate questions about Van Halen and the potential for a reunion. Roth really didn’t give anything newsworthy in this interview, although WARF caught a couple of things that proved to be…at the very least…curious.
For the performance?
I have to admit that I was hoping Roth would toss aside Jump for one of the other covers, but he didn’t. He performed the same song as he did on Leno’s show, and again, did a fantastic job in his performance. On many fronts, I think that Roth looked a bunch more comfortable on stage. Again, the crowd was heavily into the performance, which is usually a direct difference from other performers, who have the crowd scratching their head. The one major difference was that Roth gave Brian Young the opportunity to showcase his stuff in the middle of the performance, and he did more than a yeoman’s job working with the bluegrass musicians.
The bottom line for this show? Roth rolled through another night of major coverage. Not bad for a guy that seems to have more lives than Siamese cats. The show that interests me the most is the appearance on The View. My guess here is that he’ll have banged Walters and that Hasselbeck chick by the time the show starts airing. Anyways, I’m pretty curious about the interview there, as they have a tendency to spend a bunch of time with guests…including singers. My guess is that they’ll ask him dumbass questions…but you never know what might happen with Roth and a bunch of women.
