Craig Ferguson - Scotland Week Musical Opener

May 14, 2012 - This kicking cover of "Scotland Rite Temple Stomp" (by John Crozier of Ninian Hawick) opens Day One of Scotland Week. Craig (vocals), Steve Jones (lead guitar), Tim Mosher (guitar) and Stoker (drums).
And we come full circle - Steve Jones is the godfather of the musical cold open. Craig was an avid listener of Jones' radio show, "Jonesey's Jukebox". On the way to work one day, Craig heard a track from his childhood, and decided to lip synch it. That yodeling cold open led to the many lip synch numbers we've enjoyed so much.

Craig would be a fucking fantastic Doctor! When Matt Smith tires of the job I hope Stephen Moffat gives Craig a call.

When I saw the TARDIS in the teaser a few weeks ago, I was hoping it might mean that Matt Smith was going to come up for a little fun. I guess he still might.
