I do wish I knew about it so I could have taped it. The nice HD version that was on youtube has since been removed.

When I was buying Transference at my local record store, an newer employee acted as if he just heard about Spoon. I told him how good they were and he said "I heard Spoon is like the new Wilco". I laughed a little. They came out around the same time. </p> <p>As bands, perhaps their stories are the same. Getting dropped by their labels, each having 7 albums. Having great songwriting. Sure. </p> <p>But Spoon in it's purest form is Rock 'n' Roll. Wilco is folk. I like both bands a lot. Don't get me wrong. But I don't think their music is similar. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2725 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 11:14:52 +0000 middlenamewayne 2725@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I just wanted to publicly apologize for not posting that the <strong>SPOON</strong> episode of the <em>David Letterman</em> show was rerunning last night, but I didn't realize it until a half-hour before it started.</p> <p>Man, what was up with Dave saying that <strong>Brother Theodore</strong> was coming up after the band was done? BroTheo died like two years ago at least! CREEPY!!! (Y'know, I'll bet BD had brought up Theodore's classic <em>Late Nite</em> appearances to Dave earlier and he still had the old boy on his mind when he was announcing the band, whaddayawannabet? It would be kinda like when the <strong>Butthole Surfers</strong> were on and the show came up from commercial while Dave was still in the middle of helping <strong>Paul Leary</strong> figure out the bus schedule for the area!)</p> <p> - mnw </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2723 Tue, 13 Apr 2010 10:05:49 +0000 drop dead ed 2723@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>Modest Mouse plays one hell of a show. You can see the entensity in his eyes when he plays "King Rat"</p> <p>I always compare Spoon with Wilco. Jeff Tweedy and Britt Daniels would make a good pair both lyrically and vocally I think.</p> <p>I was one to say I didn't enjoy their performance on tv, because I'm pretty sure we've all seen Spoon billions of times, and I just never catch the explosiveness on TV like I do in their live shows. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2722 Mon, 12 Apr 2010 21:34:43 +0000 nefarious 2722@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>maybe he means more like they belong together more than say, Spoon and Outkast? or Modest Mouse and Stan Getz? </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2704 Sun, 11 Apr 2010 09:23:18 +0000 Gabriel 2704@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I have a question, then - my friend says that he thinks Spoon and Modest Mouse belong in the same general category of music. I think they have practically nothing in common; Spoon has a very mathematical, crisp/choppy "these chords go here" approach where any sound is game if it makes the song better, while Modest Mouse songs have a little drone to them and seem more like organic ideas than actual songs (early MM anyway). What do you guys think?<br /> Congrats, Tyler! Wish I could be seeing them. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2649 Tue, 30 Mar 2010 08:06:48 +0000 Tyler Darling 2649@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I will be seeing Modest Mouse at Summerfest this year!!!!!! </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2647 Mon, 29 Mar 2010 13:20:16 +0000 nefarious 2647@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>G - Yep, I am, from the first time I saw them in 2000 at the "This Ain't No Picnic" festival...<br /> did someone convo me on there? I have a message from someone that I have no idea who it is... </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2646 Sat, 27 Mar 2010 10:11:16 +0000 Gabriel 2646@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>Whoa, Nefarious! You a Modest Mouse fan too?</p> <p>And thanks, pherron! I am definitely interested in having this version. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2644 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 20:13:54 +0000 nefarious 2644@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I was laughing at your comment!

I'll never get that. why would you waste your time watching or commenting if you didn't like it? dumb. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2607 Fri, 12 Mar 2010 12:44:25 +0000 pherron 2607@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>That's a shame. It gave me a nice 1080p MP4 file. It's 111mb so I don't think it'll fit on Mediafire. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2601 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 08:34:05 +0000 Tyler Darling 2601@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>The site does not work for me! </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2599 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 14:35:48 +0000 pherron 2599@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>Anyone wanting to download this epic version can just stick the web link into <a href="http://keepvid.com/">this site</a> and presto! The 1080 version looks very nice. This is such a cool version I figured it's worth keeping. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2598 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 12:54:08 +0000 LingeringPet 2598@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>the studio version of Got Nuffin has been steadily growing on me ... when they released the single last year, i really didn't care much for it ... but i gotta say, it got great drive and grit! kind of like a slightly more polished, deeper-rooted "jonathan fisk" i think (fisk is no doubt a great song, i just think it has a bit of a looser, punkier sound, production-wise anyway) </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2597 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 12:46:14 +0000 Gabriel 2597@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>Wow. I never was a huge fan of "Got Nuffin" <em>or</em> their TV performances in general, but this was great. Thanks for posting, Tyler. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2592 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 00:23:14 +0000 drop dead ed 2592@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I've never liked the way they played on t.v. </p> <p>But yeah, this is one of their better performances on the tube. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2584 Sat, 06 Mar 2010 12:39:31 +0000 monkfishblues 2584@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I think it was a great performance! Everyone in the band seemed really into it and Britt's voice was much better this time around than on their last t.v. appearance. He sounded like he was sick at Conan's - or maybe his voice was just raw from the shows he did right before The Tonight Show. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2579 Sat, 06 Mar 2010 01:24:01 +0000 kickingeapoe 2579@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I think this is the best live performance of Got Nuffin' I've heard to date. And the second drummer was Steven Patterson, lead singer of White Rabbits (their last album was produced by Brit Daniel). Awesome dynamic. I dig it. </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2575 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 09:16:25 +0000 Tyler Darling 2575@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>But here's the link</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI6SNNeojw8" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI6SNNeojw8</a> </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2574 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 09:14:10 +0000 Tyler Darling 2574@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I had NO idea they were supposed to play on Letterman!!!!! </p> http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/topic/spoon-on-letterman#post-2571 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 07:21:23 +0000 devilsdishes 2571@http://msgboard.spoontheband.com/ <p>I missed the guys on The Late Show last night. If anyone finds a video of this, please post the link. I heard they played "Got Nuffin". Awesome! </p>
