Great to see Leno before he had his super-polished shtick down. Not to knock the shtick, which absolutely works (obviously), but you know what I mean.
I wonder if Boston is one of the things he consciously purged from his persona for a more middle-America feel. I didn't even know he was *from* Boston until he had James Taylor on his final show and talked about leaving Boston for LA and how melancholy he was and all. And then he talks again about it here.
