@kc979087 Would you be kind enough to recommend the YOUTUBE connection where Howard Stern does us this public service? That would be wonderful!
HS already did me a great favor with his Fall 1985 radio shows ripping NBC (after getting fired; boy, did they show him!).
This would be a great Daily Double, with Sleezeoid Lettercreep getting his.

B-52 are the innovator of post-punk pop

This performance closely followed the recording and release of the album. I would imagine that voices are over taxed at that point but they sound good. The song was performed in a shortened version (probably for the tv time allowance) but I think the drummer and the Late Night Band was performing the song too fast requiring The B-52's to keep up and make it work. LOVE the fact that Kate bellowed out "Tin Roof Rusted!". She did a good job with it I think.

Always loved that little tune even though I never thought any of them could sing a lick.
-
The Letterman band is a bit out of groove.

@kc979087 Well, I just found it...So much for the respect.
-
@kc979087 Howard respects Dave and wouldn't do that.

Wow! That was different! Kate did "Tin Roof Rusted" instead of Cindy....and the tempo was extremely fast!
-
it sounded a bit rushed. usually its a bit slower in tempo. guess it was rushed for tv time.

@kate28435 Hi, Kate; Thanks for the info. I guess Cindy had a cold, or sore throat, but trooper she is, still did the show. Drugs, yeah, right! Lady is as straight as they come, or so I've been told. Anybody who would suggest drugs and Cindy in the same sentence describing a performance is so addled they can not think clearly.
Thanks for writing. May your night be pleasant.

I thought that Kate looked good during this performance
how ironic that 20 years after having Love Shack performed on his show,
David Letterman would have the song parodied about his scandel by
another guest, Howard Stern
