JEALOUS (as always...)

My dear old Mum just texted me to let me know she's tuning in just to watch MMJ. The Lucifer references may not go over well with such a devastating Roman Catholic ;D

This is an ambitious tune to play on late night- can't wait to hear it!

trish, i don't think you'll see me, but i'm wearing a pale blue t-shirt, sitting on the aisle.  at one point conan talked to a kid in the audience about boy bands. i was sitting in the row behind him, couple seats over.

turned out i was on the side of the studio closest to the mmj's set up, so that was also awesome!

I like how they slowed it down and made the solo come through loud and clear.

can't wait to see the footage of this one on youtube or where ever...ain't got no cable...it was interesting to read all the tweets that were coming in as they performed on conan (i monitor mmj tweets obsessively)...black metal provoked some strong reactions, lots of haters on twitter that i would love to strangle right now, but i shall digress...there were plenty of tweeters that were blown away as well

it was a ballsy song to play especially for any new audiences and that's just yet another reason why i and so many other people love this band...they don't care what anyone thinks about what they play...all those haters out there who will write mmj off because of this song can just stay in the dark as far as i'm concerned, we're better off without them

Maybe it was my TV, but I didn't think the sound was quite right.
Seemed like a weird mix or something.

I've heard Black Metal live now a few times so I know how good it can be.
I don't think it sounded very good tonight.


The dance moves of the backup singers were....interesting.

I keep wondering when Jim will ditch the trench coat...

It wasn't your TV.  The sound was way off.  The last part sounded better than the first part - but it was definitely off.  The boys tried to make the best of it.  Hot damn I love this band!

That's true. I don't think the trench coat is a flattering look for him though.
Plus it has to be so fucking hot to wear that through most of a show.

But whatever, Jim can do what he wants. I've just found the fact that he's stuck with it so long kind of surprising.

Ok. That's good I guess. I just saw people on here talking about how awesome it sounded and was like...wha??

Was anyone else slightly annoyed that MMJ camera time at the end got interrupted by Jack McBrayer?

Yeah that kind of annoyed me a bit. I love Kenneth and all, but show MMJ some camera love....not that apple-faced goon. (30 Rock reference, I am not making fun of him...)

first half of the song was waaaaay off...but I also don't think Jim has down the vocals perfectly either.  It's gotta be an insanely hard tune to sing - soo many different inflections it's crazy.  But the second half defiantly got kicked up a notch.

It looked/sounded like the female singers were lip syncing. I also heard drum fills that didn't match up with Patrick. I think I saw the same thing when they were on Fallon too. Seems like there's a backing drum track or something.

Singers were lip singing...and they sucked. The whole performance was a bad display. I blame Conan...the Barbarian
