But despite his notoriously private demeanor, Letterman must have known he’d be pretty hard to miss in the outfit he chose: a pale lemon-yellow tuxedo-style blazer with a shiny cream-colored lapel, worn over a Foo Fighters band tee in a particularly fluorescent shade of yellow. Pinstriped PJ-style pants and lace-up hiking sneakers were the finishing touches. And he looked truly delighted by the entire thing.
