Johnny MacHOST
Dave and Stephen Colbert started throwing things off the roof.

Blind MikeHOST
So this tells you how quickly Norm ingratiated himself with Dave that they would do a bit like this with him.
Blind MikeHOST
I think availability also has something to do with it, where Norm was on SNL at the time, could probably just walk right over to the Ed Sullivan Theater and participate in this bit.
Blind MikeHOST
But this is a bit that they ran.

Jon LampleyGUEST
And everybody was, "Oh my gosh." And it was just like a very surreal moment.
Jon LampleyGUEST
It was like here we are like at the end of The Late Show, and Paul McCartney's just playing my trumpet on the stage of the Ed Sullivan Theater.
Jon LampleyGUEST
It's just all very surreal.
Jon LampleyGUEST
But, um, getting to play that song with Paul as kind of the literal last moment that I got to be on that stage and we all got to be on that stage together was not just like a music moment for The Late Show, but that's kinda like a life thing.
Johnny MacHOST
Have a great day.

I wonder if, somewhere in the darkness, he's still watching, waiting for the next promise to be broken, the next debt to come due.
