A few years ago, a few days after Dave did Carson's show, I met Carson at his sister's wedding. I figured I would strike up some small talk. I mentioned that I worked for a TV station that he once interned at. I mentioned that his boss there at the time could be a real ass, but he didn't make any negative comments (maybe he was worried about looking bad).
Later that night my wife said to Carson in passing, "Saw David Lee Roth on your show, it was great". Carson replied sarcastically, "David Lee Roth, what a nut job!"
Now, if anyone has seen that episode of Carson's show, you can tell that Daly can't hang with anyone that displays any wit or says anything that you may have to think about for a second or two before you get it. He was even giving Dave attitude at the end of the show because Dave wanted to encore with "Panama" even though there wouldn't be enough time to finish the song.
Daly is the next Dick Clark, but I think he is just a dick, at least as far as his treatment of Dave.
