anybody catch colbert last night? it was notable as the last show of the year but also because it had a green screen guitar solo challenge with the guitarist from the decembrists and colbert. colbert after donning the famed five necked guitar from cheap trick feigns injury only to be replaced by peter frampton and his talk box. the challenge was anti-climatic but the show closed with the four guitarists (apples in stereo lead singer opened the show with a song and the dude from cheap trick who wrote the colbert themesong joined in) playing the themesong with colbert hooked up to the talkbox. that was the best moment. the morley safer, eliot spitzer and henry kissenger cameos created a surreal line-up. more bizarre than entertaining really.
