Well, *that* was unexpected.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
First one: I love the WeckerCam. I wonder where and for what this was filmed?
Second one: I remember seeing that when it was aired! I'd forgotten how Paul's band played along with every musical guest. I always thought that was really obnoxious. I also remember Letterman saying, after the break, that if the Feelies ever came upon hard times, they could "dump the tambourine guy."
Fourth One: Was this shot at Maxwells?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Probably. The last shot is the Hoboken train terminal.

Aaron Sorkin(!) is writing a Broadway Musical based on the Flaming Lips' Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.
Guess he's still dipping into the shrooms.

Tom, GO.
I note that the record includes:
Stan Demeski, Vinny DeNunzio, Dave Weckerman, Anton Fier, and Brenda Sauter.
That's a lot of drummers! I guess Bill Million is still in absentia in Florida, then?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Has this been linked to before? Patti Smith's editorial in the NYT (you need a Select subscription - for some reason it let me in anyway) on March 12, 2006 on the demise of CBGB and her induction into the Rock Hall of Fame: [link]
edit to add this next paragraph, because I think it should be in there:
On the eve of this event I asked myself many questions. Should an artist working within the revolutionary landscape of rock accept laurels from an institution? Should laurels be offered? Am I a worthy recipient?
...
Rock ’n’ roll drew me from my mother’s hand and led me to experience. In the end it was my neighbors who put everything in perspective. An approving nod from the old Italian woman who sells me pasta. A high five from the postman. An embrace from the notary and his wife. And a shout from the sanitation man driving down my street: “Hey, Patti, Hall of Fame. One for us.”
I just smiled, and I noticed I was proud. One for the neighborhood. My parents. My band. One for Fred. And anybody else who wants to come along.
