Team Coco News: Slash wears an 'I'm With Coco' button while on Jay Leno's 'Tonight Show'


Yep: Slash is with Coco.

The image above-- via TMZ.com-- shows off some angles from Slash's recent appearance on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno".  As you can see in the photos above, Slash snuck an "I'm With Coco" button onto his outfit for the performance (he was there performing with current band) and editors at NBC tried to snip out all the offending shots featuring the pin.  Though they were able to scrub most of Conan's face out of the appearance, some shots still had Conan in 'em.  I'd never thought I'd say this in an unironic manner, but: Slash is my new hero.

Meanwhile, Conan's gearing up for his big "Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television Tour", and the shows start in five days...in Eugene, OR.  Expect a lot of hoopla around the time that those shows start, as fans are dying with curiosity to know what Conan's going to do during each show.  Will The Masturbating Bear make an appearance?  Will he have Andy with him?  We'll have to wait and see, but keep your eyes trained on the Comedy Examiner's Office for any updates as they're available.  While you're waiting on those to arrive, check out some of these other recent Comedy Examiner articles:

    The "I'm with coco" was referring to Fat Mike from NOFX when he did his "coco" show a few weeks ago where he shared shots of booze he had peed in, told horrible stories of his childhood, etc. It was not about Conan O'Brien.

    These people are appearing on Leno, but CoCo is probably who scheduled them. There were probably contracts & agreements, so they thought when signed they would be on Conan's show & would have been if NBC wasn't so lame, but ended up having to be on Leno's. Kudos to Slash.
