Whoever said Fallon “better step it up” earlier this week can officially bow their head down because Fallon has the Yo Gabba Gabba and the legendary, Roots performing “We’re Going To Party Today!”

Portishead are known for taking their sweet time. The Bristol trio’s third album, Third, was released in 2008, 11 years after their second, self-titled album. And unlike any other band we can think of after that long of a hiatus, it was as if they didn’t miss a beat.
Last night, the group appeared on Jimmy Fallon, following last week’s gig at ATP, which featured a guest spot by Chuck D. Fallon marks their first U.S. television appearance since 1998 on SNL. They were “promoting” their Amnesty International benefit single, “Chase The Tear,” which actually came back out in 2009.

Two of our three favorite musical heads (the third being Bucket-) are scheduled to perform next week on Jimmy Fallon, which might just cause our DVRs to melt down in ’90s alterna-swoon. Radiohead will appear on the show Oct. 3, following what has already been a JohnnyGreenwoodpalooza series of events in NYC that included appearances on SNL and Colbert Report, as well as two shows at the Roseland Ballroom.
But even more exciting is news that enigmatic trip-hop innovators Portishead will take the Fallon stage on Oct. 5. The trio is in the neighborhood to perform at the All Tomorrow’s Parties Festival, which was curated by the band. This will mark the first time (so far as we can tell from YouTube) that Portishead will appear live on American television. But feel free to correct us on that.
