Cobra611 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Sitting here watching The Late Show with David Letterman and he just included Rush in one of his opening monologue jokes. He was actually making fun of the NY Knicks, as they made the playoffs for the first time in 7 years. They showed a mock commercial saying that because no one expected the Knicks to be in the playoffs, they booked Rush to play MSG that week...and showed a few second clip of them from a Snakes & Arrows show...it was pretty funny!!!

TheBluePhoenix Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 There are occasional Rush references on Letterman. I assume one of his writers is a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra611 Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 I watch Letterman every night and this is the first mention I ever heard. Not to say they never did any... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnals Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I remember Conan had a worker on his staff that was a big Rush fan and even did a skit about it. (That was back when Conan was on late night at NBC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just watched the Wednesday night monologue on CBS.com and they must have edited the Rush mention out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GotRush Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Just watched that episode ( on dvr ) Nice little bit. I've seen every show since 1982 ( except maybe dozen lost due to various errors with vcr or unforseen circumstances ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
