Your weekly guide to late night music &mdash it's a wacky one, guys. Not a whole lot to tune in for, this week's mostly just tough dudes (Sylvester Stallone, Shaq, Samuel L. Jackson, Mickey Rourke...) and Will Ferrel (showing up five times), but I've got a few standout acts in mind to keep you amused. Take a look:
TONIGHT (8/02):
Damian Marley & NAS (
The Late Show with David Letterman)
Jimmy Cliff (
The Colbert Report)
iiit's reggae night!
TUESDAY (8/03):
Spoon (
Late Night with Jimmy Fallon)
WEDNESDAY (8/04):
The Dead Weather (
The Late Show with David Letterman)
THURSDAY (8/05): Cover yo' ears, unless you want "Hey There Delilah" stuck in your head for another two years. Or check out
Savion Glover, master tap dancer, on
The Colbert Report. You might remember him from
Sesame Street, but he's collaborated with more notable musicians than Snuffleupagus (yes, I looked up the spelling).
FRIDAY (8/06): Not a whole lot to look forward to.
Snoop Dogg is bringing his wife and daughter to
The View, and
Jakob Dylan's on
Tavis Smiley &mdash haven't heard anything about him since his Wallflowers days, but based on genetics alone it's probably good to keep half an eye on him.
Don't despair if you're not blown away by the options &mdash did you forget it's
SHARK WEEK?! So there's no way you could get bored.
