Mastodon to Perform on ‘Last Call With Carson Daly’

Why do you need to tune into 'Last Call With Carson Daly' on Tuesday, Nov. 15? Because Mastodon will perform both 'Curl of the Burl' and 'Black Tongue' on the late night TV program. The show airs on NBC affiliates at 1:35 AM ET, so be a night owl on Tuesday night and watch it. You won't be disappointed, especially since it's a two-fer.

However, if you need your sleep and can't commit to that time frame, we've got good news. The episode and performance will air on Fuse the next day (Wednesday, Nov. 16) and at three different times. You can watch at the band rip through the first two songs from 'The Hunter' 6:30 and 10:30 PM or at 12:30 AM. There's something for everyone on this particular performance menu!

The Atlanta-based forward-thinkers are racking up the TV appearances. They performed 'Curl of the Burl' on 'The Late Show With David Letterman' last month. Can we just say that we are loving that late night TV bookers have embraced Mastodon and are making room on their stages for quality metal bands as of late? With these two TV appearances for Mastodon, Judas Priest on 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon in October and a costumed Halloween performance by Megadeth on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!,' hard rock and heavy metal have carved out their rightful place on late night talk shows.

Don't forget to watch Mastodon on Tuesday night! In fact, we think all metal fans should tune in so the ratings are strong and late night TV bookers continue to allow metal to represent!
