Rodman Flender captures the exhaustion and exhilaration of life on the road in “Conan O’Brien Can’t Stop,” a documentary chronicling the grueling two-month, 30-city tour that O’Brien embarked on after he severed ties with his longtime employer, NBC. The network’s 2010 decision to reinstate Jay Leno as host of “The Tonight Show” resulted in a PR fiasco for NBC and stirred up a media dust cloud of outrage against both Leno and NBC. For his part, O’Brien’s ouster from the show left him feeling angry, abandoned, humiliated. To add salt to those wounds, NBC stipulated that O’Brien could not appear on TV, radio or the Internet for six months after his departure.

HollywoodNews.com: Conan O’Brien spoke about Max Weinberg’s departure as bandleader from his TBS late night talk show in November by praising the musician as “incredible.”
“Max has been a huge part of my life for the past 17 years,” said O’Brien in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, “I hope he can find time to stop by the new show, sit in with the band, and pretend to find my monologue funny.”
Weinberg will be replaced by Jimmy Vivino, a longtime guitarist and keyboard player, in Conan’s band.
Weinberg, who also plays drums in Bruce Springsteen’s E-Street band, exclaimed, “17 years — a lifetime on TV. Conan and I met on a New York City street corner in the Spring of 1993 and my association with Conan, his staff, and crew has been a deeply rewarding experience for me. And, making music with Jimmy Vivino, Mark Pender, La Bamba,...

"The Beatles: Rock Band" finally arrives today (along with the completely remastered Beatles back catalog, available in both stereo and mono formats), and last night Conan O'Brien celebrated the game's release by welcoming George Harrison's son Dhani to "The Tonight Show." In addition to being the child of a Beatle and the frontman for the band thenewno2, Dhani was also instrumental in the development of the latest game in the "Rock Band" franchise. He was integral in recruiting the participation of Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, and he told O'Brien that the whole experience began with his enthusiasm for music-based video games like "Guitar Hero." They also discussed the strange disconnect that sometimes occurs when actual musicians — guitarists in particular — attempt to pick up the game. Harrison said that McCartney and Starr had the same problem and encouraged people like Slash to play on the "Expert" setting in order...
