NERD ALERT!!!!!

That's one of my favorite references from SNL, when Jimmy Fallon cuts off Tina Fey for correcting him on the pronunciation of a Lord of the Rings character. And while I have nerdy tendencies, I must admit that I didn't initially document the setlist seen above. I found the setlist and album breakdown through a Google search, which just might be even nerdier. Nice!
