If that's the case, why do we have late night talk shows? How do you promote a movie in a brief 5 minute interview with Leno when they talk about personal life for 90% of the interview? He's making appearances to get his name out there so people become aware he has a record out. It's a promotions game. The point is to get his name out there. If he wants to make himself look like an ass, hey so be it. Doesn't bother me one bit.

If he didn't go on the show to promote his album, then he wouldn't have been scheduled to be on the show. Notice how many times Steve Schrippa (sp?) mentioned Stapp's new album, naming it by name? The whole point of having guests on is to promote whatever they're doing.
