Ear on TV: Week of Oct. 2

Get your Tivo/DVR's ready, it's another week of music on talk shows. This week sees the release of The Killers' latest Sam's Town, and to promote it they've got a three-night engagement on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Here's hoping they can redeem their rather lackluster (and off-key) performance on SNL from a couple nights ago. I'm more excited to see Whole lot of Shakin' and Shakey performing together (Jerry Lee Lewis and Neil Young on Late Show With David Letterman.)
