Warm Visions

I am an avid fan of Conan O’Brien. I think that he is a very funny and witty comedian and a great interviewer. I have been watching the show for about 3 years now, and pretty much every episode has left me in stitches. Now everyone has probably heard of the whole beef with him, NBC, and Leno. Well, it’s been confirmed that this friday will be Conan’s last show. This makes me sad. Well, I’d thought I would try and scrape up some great clips from his run on NBC. I’ll be updating this post with more videos as time goes on. I hope everything works out for Conan and his crew in the future.

^^When Conan went to FAO Schwartz in NY^^

::UPDATE:: Conan’s last show was this evening, and it was a bittersweet moment indeed. Mostly bitter, cause it’s the end of Conan on NBC, but sweet cause of how funny it is. He had a great montage of the great times in his short 7 months on the Tonight Show, followed by a surprise appearance by Steve Carrell. Then a great interview with Tom Hanks, and a performance by Neil Young. Then finally, Conan jammed out with Will Ferrell, one of the guitarists from ZZ Top, the Max Weinberg Band, some guy playing a slide guitar, Beck, Will Ferrell’s wife, and some other people(?) to Free Bird. It was fantastic indeed. He will be so missed so much by a multitude of people. You better find a new gig soon, bud. I don’t think the world can last long without you.

“Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. If you work hard and you’re kind, amazing things will happen. I’m telling you, amazing things will happen” – Conan O’Brien, 2010.

The well known music festival, Coachella is coming up, and the lineup list has been published. The artists that are attending these 3 days of music just blows my mind. Check it out.

Yeah. AWESOME! Here is the thing for me (and probably all the people reading  this), though. It is in California, in April. I cannot just skip school in April and go to California for about 5 days (if you account travel, and all that). I don’t  have the resources to go there either. Unless I get a ride  with someone else who wants to go. Oh well, final comment is that I cannot go, and I am sad. BUT, some great pictures and stories are going to come  of it, so I’ll just read  those. Pretty much the same, right? Right guys? Hello?
