This is REAL music!!! Justin Bieber can take his little girlie voice and auto-tune to hell with him!!!!!

[dylon19941]

exactly

[Mottahead]

@blinxwang

Do you know what the most fucked up thing is?

You're mentioning the kid's name.

I would never do that.

Who were you mentioning, anyway?

[bearleft]

Props to the Darwin-fish on the amp behind Linnell's right shoulder!

[lance5445]

still a great song and it would be great for 6 grade history lone hill students

[EriisaMuffin]

I've been trying to find this for a month or so! Thank you!

[rediwsCp]

@EriisaMuffin really? a month?

[tomakaze23]

after all these years, they still look and sound great!

[SirDamos23]

i know, John is 50 and his voice still sounds as good as it was back when they made Flood

[xubius]

That Reminds me, There's a few broken links I have to fix on TMBW with this video.

[mlester72]

No better way to say goodbye to Conan, thanks for a great 14 years on Late Night...

[evukahih]

Who is conan obrian and why is she so sad? -30 Rock

[azzwort]

why isn't jon playing guitar?!?!?!?!??!

[SirDamos23]

Maybe him playing the keyboard has something to do with it.

[kurzuul]

Indeed!

[NvPGulstab]

I learned how to hack so I could get this video on my iPod...

[turtelyturtleclub]

cooooool

[geekfest2000]

An awesome performance of a great song!

[deepspace3]

We need a new album, so they can do Conan in California when they are on tour! And personally I prefer "Kiss Me Son Of God".

[JrtheRat]

oh, Linnell, sing away troubles..

[beaniepq]

hehe, they're all still really good looking.

awesome tmbg performance.

[Drworm89]

Pretty good performance. Conan is awesome, and even more awesome for giving the Giants such respect that they deserve. I love how tight the ending was. Linnell's voice carries that last note perfectly.

[jonnyveliky]

No matter what, Linny is STILL as young as he was back then in the 1980s.

[TempusTransit]

Ah! I get it: Lincoln and Darwin's birthdays are both February 12. Coooool.

[kairaa]

Not only that, but they were both born on February 12, 1809.

[TempusTransit]

Conan says "Leave that [guitar] when you go", right?

[NvPGulstab]

I would guess, Dan doesn't usually play that fancy of a guitar.

[bettablue1]

Love, Love, Love TMBG x Infinity! & Conan for having them on so often, helping their career!

[NvPGulstab]

Conan doesn't shake with Marty because Mary's wearing casual clothing. Fancy shirts only, pal.

[NvPGulstab]

That's Marty, not Mary. My hand kinda skipped over the "t" when going r-t-y, they're all next to each other.

[Swango]

He does end up shaking Marty's hand, but only after giving Marty a few seconds to reflect on his huge mistake in not wearing anything fancier.

[bradanders]

Too bad they didn't do a better song.

[NvPGulstab]

You'd be hard-pressed to find a song better than The Mesopotamians.

[RevDrFaux]

If you're talking about "The Else", no. Plenty of other songs are better though.

[worzgan]

Hopeless Bleak Despair - Mink Car?

[NvPGulstab]

Haven't heard much of Mink Car, seeing as how it's not available on iTunes.

[JasonDTube]

They should've done Hey Mr DJ, New York City, Birdhouse, or Doctor Worm.

[suchducks]

Nah, they should've played 'Why Does the Sun Shine?' since it was the first song they played on Conan and it's on the next kids' album.

[JasonDTube]

Or perhaps "Why Does the Sun Really Shine?"

[xubius]

They should've played Birdhouse, Particle Man, or Experimental Film. Am I right?

[taylorbortnerathing]

@xubius no

[NvPGulstab]

Would've preferred "It's Kickin' In", "Wearing a Raincoat" or pretty much any other song from The Spine, but those are good, too.

[valerie2776]

Rock.

[Vorhias]

An awesome performance. I just wish that Flansburgh could have done something more than just back-up singing.

[EarlGood]

Oh too cool! Thanks for this. I like the mad props to "Chuck D." and Lincoln on the keyboard! :)

[JasonDTube]

Does anyone else find it awesome how Linnell is rockin out at 2:46?!

I <3 TMBG!

[eviltomnook]

Maaannnnn I wish I could've seen it!

[DoctorDraco]

Thanks for the ul. I forgot to watch them!

[oozabooman]

I'm so upset I forgot about this. I even watched the office and 30 rock with the intent of continuing watching TV for the next few hours, but ER is just too hard to care about.

[accordianlover]

Great job guys!

[doffy1]

great! <3 TMBG

[Boojispud]

They look so much more comfortable than during "I'm Impressed." They were very nervous for that, it seemed.

[applecheesedoodle]

they look sooo much cleaner than when i saw them in concert

[afrosk8er88]

yeah, they look like they've showered off all that "on-the-road" funk. Danny Weinkauf is even out of his usual leather pants and in a suit. now that's cleaning up.

[suchducks]

hanks for posting!

[suchducks]

and "thanks", too..

[antispamdinista]

Very cool. Very cool indeed.

[NovemberKat]

Gotta show the respect for Darwin :D

[paulduddy91]

fucking brilliant. tmbg is actually the best band of all time, they 100% deserve to be the band thats appeared on conan the most. and that performance was fantastic.
