The album was re-released by Epitaph Records on September 15, 2008. Like its predecessor, none of the album's songs would develop into live staples; only the title track is performed live occasionally.

The Late Late Show With Craig Kilborn
''The Late Late Show'' is an American late-night television talk and variety comedy show on CBS. It first aired in January 1995, with host Tom Snyder, who was followed by Craig Kilborn, Craig Ferguson, and current host James Corden. The show originates from Television City in Los Angeles. Format The show differed from most late-night talk shows during its first two decades on air in that it did not use a house band or an in-studio announcer.

While Craig Kilborn opened with a monologue it tended to be short ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
