Kevin Eubanks Leaving Jay Leno?

As if switching from The Tonight Show to primetime and back wasn't enough of hassle for Jay Leno, he may also be losing his trusty band leader, Kevin Eubanks. There have been reports claiming that Eubanks may not be staying with Leno for much longer. Some sources say that he will be returning with Leno to the Tonight Show spot after the Olympics, others say he will return but not for long, and still others claim he will not move back to the Tonight Show at all.

Eubanks has been laughing alongside Leno since 1992 and even followed him to primetime, so why would he leave now? "Kevin has expressed interest in pursuing personal touring and recording opportunities," a source form NBC told Inside TV. Does he really want to start a new career or is he afraid that the Leno-Conan scandal has ruined the image of Leno and the Tonight Show? Or maybe he is not leaving at all.
