Conan’s Swan Song is Freebird
Nothing draws a crowd like a fight, and the final “Tonight Show with Conan O’Brian” went out with high ratings and a lot of class. As the final show began to come to an end, Conan welcomed a grizzled, Will Farrell and his extremely pregnant wife, Viveca to the stage in front of a huge American flag and the Tonight Show band. (Also on board for the performance was Billy Gibbons (from ZZ Top, Ben Harper and Beck) How do you close out a show?
Freebird with plenty of cowbells. (and just an update, Viveca gave birth to their third son today. His name is Axel).
(Another update: NBC raided YouTube and disabled every version of this incredible performance they could find. The version now available was taped off of someone’s television, has poor sound quality and ends abruptly. It’s still worth taking a look. Screw you NBC. You keep making the bad decisions.)
