Conan O”Brien - Suspicious Minds @ Love Rocks Beacon Theater 3-7-2024

[@danbailey8182]

I knew he played guitar. Les Paul was a guest once and gave Conan a beautiful guitar as a gift. Conan was in tears and Les Paul signed the guitar for him. The singing? Who knew he had that! What a great way to start off.

[@624radicalham]

He's been doing this since his show was canceled years ago. He cant really sing, that's why he's doing a duet. You're not even hearing his voice. It's drowned out by the other guy

[@TheJimbo1791]

Love Conan, but you can see his guitar playing is just bad strumming. I believe he really hasnt practised guitar a lot. But damn, he can put up a show.

[@tikkasako6.5]

Conan can play, so can I. Elvis' voice filled the hall, every time. Conan had balls taking this on. The KING lives, forever........!!

[@dianelooper3755]

[@subg8858]

Suspicious Minds was originally by Mark James. Maybe Conan never heard the cover version by Elvis

[@freq.warrior333]

Everyone plays guitar. But I will kick their ass 😃

[@terrorbulyfe]

I’ve been a fan of Conan for a long time. I had no idea he can play and sing! Damn, I wish he would come back on network late night TV.

-me either .. surprise !- -and funny too !-

[@youropionmattersnot]

He can't

[@TheStuport]

When you say you have been a Fan for a "long time" and Did NOT know Conan could play or sing....You are NOT a Real Fan.

[@garybezner6774]

Just wish Conan had played something less iconic, not by Elvis, and sounded that good! Elvis impersonators are dime a dozen! Entertainers are in a league of their own!

[@b.snow-fotomkr6132]

The band and backup singers alone are worth it.

[@youropionmattersnot]

For sure. It would have been so much with just them singing.

[@jaydrfish]

Yes, a great band, and excellent singers!

[@mickytallent6933]

Is that letterman’s old band

[@rebekkad.2092]

I swear...Conan's clowning around might make one think he's not this talented. But he tries everything. He truly entertains.

[@g2D1]

Hence the word "Entertainer" some bands as a whole are entertainers. They don't play , they perform! They arrive on time, and they stay late and jam for the crowd! unlike the artists of today

[@yusufhashmi1024]

Honey, if he ain't talented, none of us are. It takes talent for him to just wake up and be himself every morning.

[@jetstreamx15]

Actually he is pretty good...down with the woke..Connan Rocks

Guitar tech was on the ball!

[@Johnnynbk]

And 4 feet tall

[@RonFast]

...or he screwed up by putting on a bad strap ?

[@ScottGrammer]

@@RonFast Nah. Straps break. It happens. That's one of many reasons to have a good guitar tech. Took him seconds to come up with another strap, and it was the right length, meaning he had prepared for just such an event.

After Johnny, Conan was always my favorite talk show host. He was never mean or a partisan hack. Conan was simply funny and a great entertainer. His moment on that Spanish Soap opera is legendary, the Queso Salesman.

[@erepsekahs]

Conan was never funny, and a lousy, witless, entertainer. You could always tell he was trying very hard, but never did quite make it. Frequently it was obvious the guests were laughing *at* him, and not _with_ him.

[@atlarge988]

1:54 "... a song written just a few years ago by Mr. Austin Butler..: Nope - a 1968 song written and first recorded by the American songwriter Mark James.

[@billh4301]

No shit!

[@andretomlinson425]

Yep - spot on. Austin Butler played Elvis in the 2022 Baz Luhrmann directed movie. Not sure why Conan screwed that comment up, or whether it was sadonic. Interestingly Elvis pretty much embraced the entire original recording approach of Mark James, albeit lifting it to a stellar King level. Anyway, its a great performance by multi-talented Conan.
