Exactly, I have heard Carson's interview style described exactly this way many times.Quote

That's what made Johnny Carson so great all those years ago on the Tonight Show. He understood who the real star was - and it wasn't him - and he just shut the hell up and got out of the way.

What an utter disgrace. Fallon couldn't stop babbling long enough to let Keith say more than three straight words and then it was over. Just terrible. Even Keith seemed disappointed, but was too cool to let it show.

Not very interesting interview, but Keith looked pretty good.
Wish he would have played something - even a short little ditty on acoustic while sitting on the couch.
Or even at least a musical comedy routine/collaboration w/Fallon.
It was similar to watching a football game, and the star captain of the team was benched the entire game.
Probably left many casual viewers wondering what the hell why this guys supposedly a musical legend and no music?
In all fairness, when Mick was on Fallon I don't think he performed either - just a lame skit and/or comedy/video?
But now Keith is 0 for 2 on Fallon"...as the old Burger King lady used to say 'Where's the beef"?, or in this case "where's the Keef"?!!!
That was Wendy's, my man

*edit: Make that 0 for 3 if you count Keith's first appearance when Fallon hosted the Late Show.

I was hoping Keith would have played a number. That's the best way to promote a new album. I'd have thought he'd be more comfortable performing than talking. Makes me think he may not tour for Crosseyed Heart. The segment was disappointing, but I loved that he got a standing O.

Yeah, when's the last time you saw someone who didn't play a song from a new record on that show when trying to promote it? Considering that's standard practice and Keith is such a "bands not a real band unless they play live songs" kind of guy, I don't think this bodes well for the possibility of of any live performances of CEH, unfortunately.

I didn't like the promotion for this album, no video on youtube (the only one is an audio only video and sounds terrible), no live performance, only boring interviews that no one cares.
The only way to sell an album nowadays is:
1- A Good Youtube Video
2- 2 or 3 singles to different radio formats
3- Various TV appearances with live performances
Crosseyed Heart didn't get any of these, so in two weeks time the album will fall off the Top 100 chart.
