Letterman's 'Late Show” farewell is turning into quite the star-studded event. Steve Martin, Peyton Manning, Chris Rock, Jim Carrey, Barbara Walters, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Tina Fey are also turning out to see Letterman off.

Foo Fighters have appeared on Letterman's show several times in the past. In 2000, the rock band famously played on the latenight show at Letterman's request after he returned from heart surgery.

Most recently, the group played a week-long residency on 'The Late Show” last fall in support of their 'Sonic Highways” HBO docuseries.
