Go, Rich!
Just remember, as the cowbellist, it’s all about you. Feel free to impromptu solo.
And I love Tracy Bonham. I YouTube “You’re the One” all the time.
Dude, that is awesome! “Mother, Mother,” still one of my favorites by Bonham after all these years.
Rich,
If only they could hear you do a poem.
National TV!
You have to find a way.
This brings me happiness.
Is that music guy with the
loud sport jackets
still there?
I think every TV program
from Meet the Press
to the Barefoot Contessa
should have Rich Ferguson
playing a cowbell.
Even Tom & Jerry
& the 700 club.
& Baywatch.
Call your cable operator.
Too funny! Rich, you magnificent bastard, I can’t believe you’re going to get me to watch anything Jay Leno related.
Rad! That’s great, Rich!
Listi - this is the prime opportunity to start turning out those Listi’s Meat Market shirts we discussed eons ago. Or, at the very least, TNB shirts so that Rich can wear it on the show. Free advertising!
I had no idea you cowbelled, Rich! This is a must-see/must-hear.
Will you be cozy with the idea of permanent employment on the show? Then the larger world will hear our songster-poet-philosopher TNB man for the thoroughly enlightened artist we know him to be.
BTW, I once sat in the Tonight Show audience—-one of the thrills of my life! The stage seemed much smaller and cozier than it does on t.v.
As I recall, Leno’s wife has for years been quietly active in helping Afghanistan women.
Very cool–I love Rich! Wish he was doing his spoken word on the Tonight Show! Maybe soon.
This is great.
Better start practicing, Rich!
MORE cowbell!
Finally, Leno gets a touch of class!
Only Rich could make playing the cowbell this freakin cool.
Is it too late to incise TNB on the cowbell?
I’ve never watched Leno in my life, but this is just what it took . . .
How ridiculously cool is Rich?
