Best Letterman Performances

Exactly what it says on the tin. Why do I get the feeling that Letterman would be a great BEA user?

Letterman has only asked for encores twice in his show's history. The Heavy were the band both times. [First added to this chart: 02/09/2013]

One of my favorite live vocals of all time; Ed Droste absolutely kills it. That one dude plucking the violin/viola back there might be a bit too into it, but I'll let it slide. [First added to this chart: 02/09/2013]

Letterman makes no qualms about the fact that he enjoys putting Brooklyn artists as much as possible, so TV on the Radio was a perfect fit. [First added to this chart: 02/09/2013]

One Armed Scissor

Not only is this a great performance and all, but check out all those flags behind Letterman. I thought this was a post 9/11 show for a moment, but then I realized it has to be from November 2000 because it's the only timeframe that makes sense. [First added to this chart: 02/09/2013]

Black
http://youtu.be/OlZKFJueoIA
One of the funnier moments, where Paul and David are talking about the epic outro on Black, and Eddie Vedder randomly walks in to sing along to it and then just as randomly leaves. Awesome moment. EDDIEEEEEEE!

Higher Ground

It seems like bands had a lot more freedom to move around back when Letterman was on NBC in the 12:30 time slot after Johnny Carson's Tonight Show. David himself was way more wild too. This version of the show was more like what Conan would become.

Cool. A list for Jimmy Fallon would work as well.
