actually, there's some non-ivies that are tougher to get into (mit, stanford, swarthmore) than actual ivies.

i'm guessing they'll play "reena" or "incinerate".

There's always YouTube.

they did. they also played unmade bed on conan and pattern recognition on craig kilborn. i have all three taped but i have no idea how to get them from videocassette to the www, except by holding a video camera to the set and recording my taping.

Oh shit, I didn't know about those. I'd love to see them.

where i apply will honestly depend on the outcome of this behemoth . . . i have a 3.8 gpa, so i may consider shooting for an ivy leaguer or two (but probably not yale . . . i discovered on the lsac website today that someone with a 4.0 gpa and a 180 lsat has at most about a 65-70% chance of getting into yale, with an appreciable decrease with each tiny decrease in lsat score or gpa). this will be narrowed down once i find out my lsat score but right now my list of possibilities is . . .

harvard
columbia
stanford
georgetown
uva
w&m (my current school)
yale (?? -- i might consider it if i really surprise myself on the lsat)
maybe a couple more (penn? cornell? northwestern? maybe something not quite so lofty?)

yeah, wishful thinking. dream on, ryan, dream on. :D

I highly suggest the University Of Kansas. We've traditionally had one of the best law schools in the country.

fuck. guess we're both right......

http://sonicyouth.com/history/con-set.html

that site says they performed Unmade Bed on both shows:

06/09/04 Burbank, CA The Tonight Show w/ Jay Leno
07/07/04 NYC, NY Late Night w/ Conan O'Brien

oh hell, you're right, it was leno, not letterman.

They're all the same. Dick Cheney shot a guy. Ha.

The "Letterman" link takes me to the "Craig Kilborn" link, and I'd really like to see the video of them on Letterman.

Unmade Bed on Conan is the best live performance of the song that I've heard.

damn,i messed up things a bit...

not much letterman,sorry guys....
the diamond sea on letterman is out there somewhere,the yousendit link someone posted is dead....and i can't upload anything,sorry...

I found the Letterman performance on YouTube. The video is a little grainy but the sound quality is fine. Its really cool.

so what about that 100% performance on leterman. never going to see a light of the day again. seem to be pretty mysterious by now.

Sweet, I'll have to watch that.

they performed Unmade Bed on Conan too.
