Last night, over 13 million people watched David Letterman sign off for the final time from his monumental show, Late Night. The man was an American icon and also booked some awesome heavy metal guests. In honor of this being his final week on the air, we thought we would put together a list of all the metal bands he's had on the show through the years.
Mastodon
The Letterman bookers must really love this band because they were invited back multiple times.

Black Sabbath
Back in the late 90s, when Sabbath had their first reunion, and were still friendly with Bill Ward, they played Letterman!
