Red Fang

Perhaps the most modern band to be invited to the show. Good for these guys!


Soundgarden

These guys performed an entire mini-concert in the Letterman studios a few years ago…


Living Colour

Letterman loved these guys!


Slipknot

The bookers were really ahead of the curve with this one. The band was just exploding and made their first national TV appearance. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7xgs3


Wicked Wisdom

There was a moment when Jada Pinkett-Smith was interested in being in a metal band, and she landed a Letterman booking for it.


Steve Vai

Thanks to Alex R. for pointing out this classic performance from Dave's NBC days.


Foo Fighters cover Black Sabbath

David Letterman's favorite band covers a metal classic!

Deftones

This was probably a big moment for the band, no?

Did we forget anybody? Let us know in the comments.
