Is there a way to download it I love the performance of California but I can't seem to find a link to it, the plugin I have for Firefox won't let me grab the video from the Fallon site

Apparently the program RTMPExplorer was, at one point, able to download video from NBC's page. I'm not sure whether it still works (I've been seeing a lot of conflicting reports), but it's a moot point for me since I can't view NBC's page anyway--it blocks viewers outside the US and RTMPExplorer doesn't seem to work with proxies.
I managed to find a torrent for the whole episode, it's a TV rip sized 720x404--not HD but the sound's pretty good. For all I know that's actually higher quality than the one NBC's streaming. I'm not sure if I'd be allowed to share the torrent here (it wasn't hard to find, though), but I'll be isolating and re-encoding California as soon as I can. I'll include the parts where Fallon talks about them as a bonus!

MKBN:
Hey, there's no problem with posting links for Mazzy Star live performances in this forum, including TV ones.
In another thread here I made the same request as ForceOfNature did re. the Fallon show, asking that if someone has their own copy of Mazzy Star's Fallon performance could they please upload it somewhere.
If you can do it, that would wonderful.

Great, hope you guys enjoy it! Here's a link to the torrent for the full episode:
http://www.4shared.com/rar/I1y32ZN_/mazzy_fallon_torrent.htmlAnd here's a link to the same file, which I've uploaded to 4shared. Lots of peers on the torrent right now (I'm still seeding, too) so it took barely a minute for me to grab, but this link should be available in case the torrent dies:
http://www.4shared.com/rar/uMyJVSYn/mazzy_fallon_full.htmlAnd here's a link for an isolated version of the performance and (I think) every clip where Mazzy Star is mentioned. Due to the re-encoding, this version is slightly more grainy than the full episode--I could have encoded it at a higher bitrate, but I wanted this option available for anyone with a low connection speed.

MKBN: I just DL-ed the full show as a torrent, & watched Mazzy's performance (which starts around the 32:31 mark for those wanting to find it right away). It looks & sounds excellent. Thank you. They've used more reverb than usual on Hope's voice for that show making it a different sounding "California" than one hears in the live versions from the tour, or on the album, which makes it an unusual & interesting version.
The torrent did download fast.
It's good if you're finding the boots list useful. It's become a small hobby of mine to help maintain & update that list 'cause "worthwhile music's for sharing". I'll soon add your links to the list & will credit you. Many thanks for your contribution!

"California" has grown on me. It took me a while, but I like it, now. I just feel they have got better songs, in this new album, to perform with, on national TV. Lay myself down, I've gotta stop, common burn, or In the Kingdom could have better represent the new album to people who have yet to hear of them. Anyway, it was exciting to see them back on national TV. Maybe, the closest we will see of an MS "unplugged" performance.
