Yes he certainly is. Five-ish years ago, I bumped into him at an incredible Zombies show, and fan-boyed all over him. I told him he was “a god”, and he replied “no, no, the real gods are on stage tonight”.
thanks Don! great as always. i love the segment where he called Dave out for being "fake" w/ same kinda hilarious litany of stuff highlighted by "even your tie is fake" walking to desk and snatching off clip-on.
There’s no glass in these windows. Your tie isn’t real, it’s a clip-on. This isn’t a real camera, it’s a prop. Even the NBC Pages are fake. The only thing REAL… is Rock n’ Roll! Hit it!
True meaning of the expression 'EPIC RANTS'. Paul doesn't flub the longest diatribes in history. I have two requests Don. Dave's epic tie dance collection and Dave's stupid phrases, like "I'm been Hypnotized", "Run for your lives!", "Ladies and gentlemen we are very, very near the end of civilization", "Boy we're having some fun now!", " More fun than humans should be allowed", "Phone the neighbors wake the kids" and possibly a song. "Midnight and the kiddies ( kitties? ) are sleeping downstairs by the furnace...".
You can get as much "midnight" as you want from Don's "Cats" collection (ua-cam.com/video/Rvp1iS5ZxTo/v-deo.html). And, as a bonus, that collection contains a few occurrences of "hypmotized", too! (By the way, it is, in fact, 'kitties'; the song is a parody of "Memory" from the musical Cats.)
Jeezus these two are legends. I want to see these two arguing and roasting each other at a restaurant. I want Paul to roast Dave's post-retirement beard.
Just for Fun and Laughs, It's The Late Night with David Letterman Show, with Mister Paul Shaffer and The World's Most Dangerous Band, Happy Fortieth Anniversary
Funny stuff! Paul was such an integral part of that show's appeal...I don't want to hit you with too many requests, Don. But--at some point--if you could post Letterman's interview(s) with Errol Morris that would be great. Thanks!
"You're obsessed with the Glamorous Ladies Of Wrestling" LOL, that's "GLOW" for those who don't know. Which Netflix created a pseudo-biographical series about.
This doesn't include the rant that I remember, in which Paul went behind Dave's desk and put his hands or something through the window panes to prove there was no glass in them.

Interesting that everyone he mentioned between 'A tribe called Quest and the 6 year old ham radio operator has died since then. I know it was a long time ago but 3 in a row.
@@mackstewart4203 I said those mentioned between (meaning after, not including) ATCQ and The 6 year old ham radio operator. Actually, for all I know the 6 year old ham radio operator could be dead as well, it has been 30 years.
Ha! He's in love with the glamorous ladys of wrestling! I completely forgot about the G.L.O.W girls! But Paul's wrong, its the gorgeous ladies of wrestling. Still funny.🤣
I actually put that up around 18 months ago for a sports reporter doing a story on him. ESPN then decided they wanted to do a similar story and had the video blocked worldwide.
Hey Paul, you cannot drink Canada drive, to prove this I have a quart of Canada Drive on shed here in Palmdale CA, by the way I am a ham radio operator kg7eoa, the. Most dangererious band alive live. You Tell Dave Hellow it's Mike
"You waste hours in the supermarket because you refuse to organize your coupons." Couldn't be better.
"You take your national parks for granted" LOL
That line was used later on an episode of The Simpsons
“You’ve thrown away your God given talent for dance!”
“You betrayed folk music when you went electric...”
This is too funny. A great example of the type of wacky humor that made this show so good.
"And finally, you insist on calling me Paul even though my name is actually Frank!"
Frank “Yeah” Shaffer?
I literally read this as he was saying it
Paul Shaffer is a legend!
Yes he certainly is.
Five-ish years ago, I bumped into him at an incredible Zombies show, and fan-boyed all over him.
I told him he was “a god”, and he replied “no, no, the real gods are on stage tonight”.
ahhh Did You mean to say Frank?
@@mervviscious : ??
@@mervviscious hahaha 😆
"You giggle whenever anybody mentions the penal code."
"Homely as a slab of peat moss" is a perfect example of Lettermanarian simile humor.
"You betrayed folk music when you went electric"--that was funny!!
'You used to really like Jethro Tull'.
@Wayne J I don’t know how to take that one. Is Paul dissing Tull?
@@chasbodaniels1744 I believe he's actually dissing on Dave, for no longer liking Tull. That's my take, anyway.
@@chasbodaniels1744 it's frank
@@chasbodaniels1744 Could be a Bob Dylan reference. People were mad the first time he played electric guitar in concert.
Paul was one crazy cat back then. He and Dave had great chemistry.
It's amazing to see how fun late night was at that point in time.
Paul has crystallized my thoughts eloquently
"Anton tells me you've been touchin' him in the elevator again!" I gotta go on a rant like this at work one of these days. Classic comedy!
Paul really did that WELL! Phrased things exactly right, timing was great. Nice Job!!!
thank you Don. These clips are amazing to see.
I have no memory of these, but they’re great - especially that first one. Bravura performance!
“Frankly your oil paintings are amateurish”
Your ears, Dave, look like some kind of toaster snack gone wrong
I will now say "wow, these boys are tasty" after every chip.
You gonna eat bacon and eggs if I arrange them in a smiley face? 😁😀 9:41 - 9:42
I still find skinny Al Roker scary...
@@bluebear1985 respect.
Thanks for this Don. So good.
"You SKIMP on the mayonnaise!!!"
Bless you! I have a wav file recording if that first rant from when it aired and I've been looking for video ever since! Much Appreciated
80s late night television was great.
thanks Don! great as always. i love the segment where he called Dave out for being "fake" w/ same kinda hilarious litany of stuff highlighted by "even your tie is fake" walking to desk and snatching off clip-on.
Clip on ties and fake glasses are the stuff of comedy gold.
There’s no glass in these windows. Your tie isn’t real, it’s a clip-on. This isn’t a real camera, it’s a prop. Even the NBC Pages are fake. The only thing REAL… is Rock n’ Roll! Hit it!
'I'm tired of having to explain to my mom that your jokes aren't supposed to be funny!'
Thanks so much, I never saw that before. Love Donz.
I could watch this at least once a week.
You skimp on the mayonnaise! YOU SKIMP ON THE MAYONNAISE!
i'll have to look around for the new fragrance "Suddenly Paul!" probably smells like Thunder Bay
@@bluebear1985 😀
Paul should have his own show. I loved when he hosted when Dave had shingles.
Imagine if the final episode in 2015 had another Paul rant
Al Roker!! I’m dying!! 😂
I cannot stop laughing at my favourite keyboard player Paul Shaffer when just said to David which after shave are you wearing A1 sauce 😂😅
LOL, this is Gold. I don't remember any of this.
"A gifted writer. Well... a writer." 😂
I'm glad I knew about Dave and Charles friendship lol
It must have been fun for the writers to unload on Letterman through Paul.

Love'n your Letterman collections. Request: "Remote (on location) collection" Pleeeeease. Thanks.
There were hundreds. In time.
I’ve never seen any of these. Very funny!
“… we’re having problems finding a store that’ll accept these Dave Dollars you pay us with.”
Paul was always great when it came to going way over the top. (Actor/Singer collection another great example!)
Jeezus these two are legends. I want to see these two arguing and roasting each other at a restaurant. I want Paul to roast Dave's post-retirement beard.
Yah his beard. Um. Yah.
PAUL SHAFFER IS THE SECOND FUNNIEST PERSON....EVER!!!! I miss him on late night T.V
He and DAVE were the greatest!!!
Just for Fun and Laughs, It's The Late Night with David Letterman Show, with Mister Paul Shaffer and The World's Most Dangerous Band, Happy Fortieth Anniversary
Brilliant.
"You betrayed folk music when you went electric!" I'm fucking DYING here people.
It reminds me of the rant he went on after an Alan Kalter Celebrity Interview sketch on the Late Show
That was a funny one !
the first one was on my birthday, 2 years before I was born.
Hey Don Giller, could we get more Paul Shaffer collections? His comedy is underrated.
In the In Box for now: the Bermuda collection.
Yelling rude things at the TV when John Tesh is on is NOT a personal flaw.
"Well it's awfully cold in here." channeling Larry David right there....
That Al Roker guy. Gotta watch him. He'll nap us back to the middle ages if you give him half a chance.
Was there also one where Paul walks over to Dave's desk and yells "There is no glass in these windows!", to which the audience exploded with laughter?
There was.
when you watch Paul and Dave interact with the belief they never liked another, it is even funnier.
Funny stuff! Paul was such an integral part of that show's appeal...I don't want to hit you with too many requests, Don. But--at some point--if you could post Letterman's interview(s) with Errol Morris that would be great. Thanks!
Just put it up -- ua-cam.com/video/9AjI88upINg/v-deo.html
Excellent! Thanks very much!
"You're obsessed with the Glamorous Ladies Of Wrestling"
LOL, that's "GLOW" for those who don't know. Which Netflix created a pseudo-biographical series about.
yea wasnt it actually Gorgeous not Glamorous though?
Paul is the best. 🤣
Should have had a show of his own.
R.I.P Tawny Kitaen
She appeared in the Whitesnake videos but I didn't know she was actually married to Coverdale.
😂 "cut-rate salad dressing"!
I forgot how big Roker used to be!
Dammit, Frank, Jethro Tull kicked ass!
i need transcripts!
"You yell "Ahoy Their Mates!" For no reason at all"
Ahoy there, mateys!
Dave WASN'T a member of the Bee Gees! (?)
"Dave dollars" lol
I want to find some of those Dave Dollars
Nice dig at Grodin
“You do not know the hell that it has been.....”

7:52 Frank's honk lol
I mailed a fan letter to Anton and all he sent back was a few Dave Dollars what an insult.
Really funny
Dave Top Ten list as delivered by Paul or Frank.
It's Bizarro-world Paul!
best sidekick in the business
I’m getting Larry David vibes watching this.
I must admit .. I love mexican aftershave also.

Not all of ATCQ is dead

@@richardcutts196 the radio operator would only be 36 now, probably not dead
@@mackstewart4203 I agree he's probably not dead. But a lot of things could happen in 30 years.
Paul Shaffer he’s a funny guy
"I came VERY close to being a member of the Bee Gees!"
You buy cut-rate salad dressing
Now Wait a minute!! She Had that coming!
This is hilarious!!
Such random shit he brings up!! 😂😂

I would buy Dave dollars in 2019.
dave dollars... the new bitcoin
Chimbley. Hah!
That word comes up a bit in "Oliver Twist," which I'm reading now.
The first three are entirely true.
And the fourth is also kinda true sometimes
How about dave's obsession with Bjorn Nitmo.
