Conan Gets Annoyed By Technical Difficulties | CONAN on TBS

[@sususegar]

This is terribly horrific... Why can't they get a distortion pedal with true bypass??!!

[@DJxDJ1997]

ikr?

[@RaynP]

I think they should try the Boss Metalzone.

[@estebang5741]

Rayn I came here for the Metal Zone joke. Funny tho, in Jimmy Vivino's rig rundown (He plays guitar in Conan's show band) he doesn't have much true bypass pedals going on

[@USDAselect]

Because the organic gain from the amplifier's EL34 power tubes give a naturally sweet midrange breakup that only needs to be boosted by a drive pedal in the preamp section.

[@schlawinovic81]

At first I read "horribly terrific".

[@an24252]

Andy pulled an Assasians Creed at the end.

[@teepee606]

Lol what happens in the game

Tee Pee you can just blend into crowds and look like you are with them

[@dannydecheeto1333]

It's been 4 years, and I'm still laughing at "Ass-Asians"

[@streched_thin]

Daddyee wdym ur STILL laughing. it is very likely that u just saw this 2 months ago and was just laughing for 2 minutes

[@ablm1996]

If this were on reddit, id give u a gold

[@JanneFlinck]

They should have done this for real to Conan, it would have been so much funnier.

[@akapbhan]

if it was on late late show it may have happened for real

[@youmeandi100]

It actually did happen to Conan for real, years ago, before he came onto TBS.

[@akapbhan]

Maska Jinjo No i am not talking about this show. I am talking about Ferguson's show on CBS. I am just referring that if it were late late show it might have really happened. Because there has already been 3 times power down just in the studio and was leaking one of the time.I know years ago conan had done shows without power but at that time the power in entire city of New york was gone.

[@TokyoKazama]

His improv is so much better than his skits. So yes, I agree, his natural reaction to this would have been better.

[@JulOyt]

Andy fuckin' hilarious as always. Way too funny and smart for being a sidekick, but at the same time you don't want him to leave, haha!

[@ChaseRocker]

Fake. You never reconnect via the multi channel audio digital interface before you re-calibrate for optimum peak levels.

[@lalalandforme]

of course it's fake that was the point it was a joke l o l

[@MisterTijuana]

***** I think his comment was textual sarcasm

[@f8j3jn]

***** chase rocker just made a more intelligent joke.. it seems it just flew over your head

[@Jontman42]

But what if you optimize the audio channel peak levels individually and then re-calibrate the connection to the interface, bypassing the multichannel continuum completely?
