The Late Show With Stephen Colbert - Jan 16th & 17th

Tonight was just Jon, brief but worth watching. He was ask if he could play but of course the band wasn't there so he will be back with the band tomorrow night. IMO that was planned from the start as the show billing on social media said tomorrow musical guests Bon Jovi early today.

Colbert said that probably was the most he had ever disappointed an audience when they realized Jon was not singing tonight.

There was one beeped out word at the start, I watched when televised but also have it recorded - if someone figures out what he said before I watch again. Something about the building.

The two new songs were mentioned briefly - actually more about them was in a linked article on twitter today. (The Wall - political and When We Were Us - about the band - per the article). No release date on the new songs but I am anxious to see the lyrics.

There was the congrats for the HOF and information about tickets going on sale for the tour. A touch on his meeting one of Colbert's band members and writing music - "Don't bore us get to the chorus." The only mention of Richie was Colbert bringing up how they met, apparently his 14 year old daughter was there and had a bit of a crush. He said to this day she still says that Richie was her first prom date. Apparently the party was thrown by Clive Davis and Jon very tactfully changed the subject to Clive.

Jon looked very good, but very typical Jon interview - mention the restaurants in Jersey, the hair, at Colbert's inquiry how to work your audience he told a brief story from the trip to Russia.

I'm not in order of discussion but you get the point - I'm sure most will soon see the telecast.

The video's been sped up, so everyone sounds like chipmunks. Pretty hilarious actually (it's also been cropped terribly).

Pretty sure he said the building used to be a shithole.

Also, When We Were Us is gonna be 'the first single'. I'd guess that they'll be playing that one tomorrow. Speaking of which, the part where Colbert asked Jon to play was seriously awkward...

is there something wrong with the uploadspeed ? Jons Voice Sounds like Mickey Mouse or someone from the Chipmonks. Or does he take Steroids for his Voice to be ready for the Tour ?

Yes, there is - it must be running at least 30% too fast. It looks and sounds cringeworthy. Wonder if it's due to copyright reasons...?

Didn't Thomas literally say it's been sped up when he posted the link? And yeah, it's probably to try to escape detection for copyright.

This sounded a little prepared, I think this Friday could be launched the new song through itunes.

That's was totally prepared. I have footage of them backstage preparing the 'shit' line...

The whole ending was so awkward! Why would you ask him to perform when he'd already agreed to do that tomorrow!?

The picture with Alec is very prominent on the single cover!

Good lord who cares if the last bit was prepared... maybe the fans didn’t know...
