This week's roundup of late night TV performances includes some hip-hop from Wiz Khalifa and tons of rock from Ryan Adams, Spoon and the Replacements, plus a flashback to the 'Mats infamous SNL performances that got them banned for life.

Ryan Adams wowed Letterman with "Gimme Something Good," the leadoff track from his new self-titled album.



Also on Letterman, Spoon laid out a faithful rendition of their new tune "Inside Out"



Wiz Khalifa went on Conan to perform a sparse version of "Stayin Out All Night" from his album Blacc Hollywood.



Finally, the return of the Replacements to NBC, ripping through their classic "Alex Chilton."



To compliment the bombast they brought to Fallon, here are the two now-legendary performances of the wonderfully boisterous and ramshackle 'Mats on SNL in 1986.

"Bastards of Young"



 

"Kiss Me on the Bus"
