Wicked Tinkers on The Late Late Show

I recorded the show last night and watched it this morning. I could only find video for Craig's swearing in ceremony to become a citizen and the opening monologue. At the end of the show he plays the drum in two different numbers with the Wicked Tinkers. It was a good show.

Craig Ferguson's intro was something like friends asked him if he was going to give up his Scottishness now that he was an American citizen, and his response was definitely not, and here are the Wicked Tinkers to prove it. He played one drum during the closing number and seemed to being a pretty good job of it, too.

{That's what I get for staying up late cutting and sewing my practice pieces for an Inverness cape.}

Twas a very good show, and Craig did an excellent job on the drums

I caught the Wicked Tinkers' entire act. They did an excellent job of strutting, posing and grimacing. Their music was entirely adequate.

Interesting to see that Craig Ferguson has achieved fame in the USA, for years he was very much a second rate alternative comedian doing the rounds in Scotland. Believe it or not he went by the name of Bing Hitler!
Great to see a Scot making it over there, its such a difficult market to succeed in
