Its really sad to see Conan leave the air, but he definitely went out like a champ with an 8 minute rendition of Lynrd Skynrd’s “Free Bird”. Lets see if I can recall who played in the band – Will Ferrell, Beck, Ben Harper, Elvis Costello, One of the dudes from ZZ Top, and Max Weignberg. I hope Conan ends up on cable (ie. Comedy Central), I think he’ll have a chance to push even more boundaries there.

Team CoCo Out!

NBC has been taking down videos of the performance from Youtube,  so when I can find a non-Hulu version then I’ll post it.
