Tuesday evening, the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City’s Times Square hosted Les Paul’s 100th Anniversary Celebration.  Numerous people from the music industry were on hand.  Too many to count.

Danny Count Koker (Count’s Kustoms/Pawn Stars/Vamp’d) and his band, Counts ’77, were there to perform. However, Danny went above and beyond by donating a custom bike to the Les Paul Foundation.

We’ve identified as many people as we could below.

Today consisted of random things from the offices, rubber chicken signed by David Letterman, baseballs, party supplies, pool inflatables, Late Show coffee mugs (which were too far to reach), gumball machines.  The remaining pieces of office furniture were brought to the street and crushed by a garbage truck.

The offices were completely empty including the BYE signs that had been put in the windows.

Highlight of my day was the megaphone used by Bill Murray in the April 2014 show with Lady Gaga and Martha Stewart.  Bill was a surprise guest who brought Gaga down 53rd street.

On Friday, the aggressive teardown of the David Letterman set at the Ed Sullivan Theater continued.  In the morning, Paul Shaffer’s Late Show Band’s set was been sliced into pieces using a jigsaw so it could fit in the dumpster.   Meanwhile, crews started bringing in building supplies to begin work on Stephen Colbert’s set.

By late afternoon, the studio was empty.  You couldn’t even tell the Letterman show once filmed there.  Employees were still packing up their keepsakes.  Very sad.
