I discovered Eels at that performance on Letterman. It really impressed me, a world different to what I usually listen to. Especially Mark Everett's scene presence is incredible.
This performance made me an Eels fan. I had never heard of them until this performance and I was hooked from then on. I now hold the Eels dear to my heart and consider their music (and marks) to be some of the greatest written music of our time, certainly in the last 40 years. Thank you Eels for making art in an industry so bent on mindless crap.
That is so strange that you say that because it is the exact same story with me! I had never heard of them before I watched them perform on t.v. that night and I've been a fan ever since. The performance itself is spectacular, almost surreal. Wonderful music, and I agree with your current view on the music industry as well.

Ahhhhh...thanks for that....I thought it was a Mellotron at first. I know that E has played that (and other analog synths) as well.
