David Letterman's website says Elvis is coming on Thursday June 5: http://www.cbs.com/shows/late_show/
(I wonder what will be the reason is for his appearance).

Thursday, Jun 5: Hugh Jackman, comedian Joe List, Elvis Costello

dilemma resolved as per my guess. i work a block and a half away and there will be TWO tapings today: 1:30 and 5:00. so, it's taping today and show airing Thursday i imagine. unbelievably, i passed the stage door entrance at 11:20, rounded the corner at Broadway to inquire and as i returned rounding the corner..what do i see a half a block ahead? Elvis jumping from his usual black SUV type taxi and heading inside at 11:25. guess he has the early taping. but, i can't make it as i have other responsibilities today. however, SRO requests are VERY often filled. get there soon if in NYC and good luck. pissed i missed another chance to say HELLO by ten-fifteen seconds. oh well. :lol: :lol: :lol:

He'll stride on stage wearing a "Thanks Lana" t shirt, do a Lana Del Ray song and then stop it half way through, saying "Sorry ladies and gentlemen there's no need to sing this song, then launch into one of his own and get himself banned from the show for ever!

Then he'll fly to London for the meet up on Saturday.

It could happen... :lol:

it's funny...i was just thinking recently how remarkably LONG it has been since his last Letterman appearance and how he SURELY would show between now and the retirement of the old dog. i thought maybe as Carnegie is four blocks up the street, we might see him June 24th/25th! i bet he has one more appearance still before the end of the show as he is certainly in the top three EVER of musical guests if not number one. and the sadly funny thing is TODAY would have been the PERFECT day for me and the taping of the show to have occurred as i am parked in front of my school with ZERO responsibilities for the remainder of my day. let's see what i missed yesterday on the t.v. screen in sixteen hours. best, benny

The actual words of the tweet says hear "The Last Year Of My Youth" on Letterman tonight.

I wonder if it's the title track of a song.

BA, out of curiosity does the list above include the dates when Elvis hosted the show while Dave recovered from heart surgery? Just wondering. Cheers.

I think that was March 12, 2003. It was only one show.
