Counting Crows on Letterman, March 31, 1994

white guys with dreads are the coolest

MESMERIZING.

they had a brilliant rendition of this song on Howard Stern...a really l acoustic set on his show. I would reccommend that you check it out

As much as I like this band I seem to find it hard to digest them live... sorry.

your loss.

I actually like them alot better live than not. A lot more intensity. This is nothing compared to how they play live now, though.

I remember this when it originally aired. I didnt even know who Counting Crows were, but after hearing them all I could say is Wow! I wasnt sure if it was because they were really that good, or they were just a pleasant relief from the 20+ minute Madonna interview that preceded it. So I go out the next day and buy the Counting Crows CD, and unlike many CDs that have one or two good tracks and the rest duds, the entire CD was excellent.

Thanks for posting this.

I hope it sounded better on TV. The online version, you can barely hear Adam in parts. The instruments are too loud. It was probably better mixed for TV.

thank you so much for posting this. I have been trying to locate this performance for years.
I saw this live on tv and it was the best performance i have ever scene on television, so good in fact, they were invited to come back again the following night.
