the first time i ever tried to go to a conan show was in 1993, the first year, and both louis CK and triumpht (robert smiegel) were pretending to be authors in a sketch. i got kicked outta that one cuz we showed up too late for the small theater, but last night was at the beacon, which holds 2,000 or so people.
the night also had jon stewart, steven colbert, a host guy from bravo tv that katfox knew, a gay wedding with conan as the official minister, and some scary lady from pan am that never got on tv. bummer max didn't show up all week. it all went very quickly, but was really awesome. his show and persona are much more suited for a new york environment, so its sad to see him off to california again.

wow, that was easy to find
that's the episode of the taping i missed. the guy on the left who sorta looks like louis ck before 100 years of time ravaged his body was, in fact, louie, and robert to the right, doing early triumph dog voices. special guest, still-funny adam sandler
robert smigel's live triumph appearance was very organic and stealth
it involved two large ushers walking a shady-looking man in a sweatshirt to an-already occupied seat during a commercial break. the shady-looking man had one arm beneath his designer sweatshirt, forming a pregnant-like bump. nothing suspicious there!
but then on his way out, i got to high five the fake triumph arm, which really made it all worth while
