<P> The stage where the show is taped has gone through many changes , from the addition of a platform in front of the stage for Kimmel to do his monologue , to various stage backgrounds . In January 2005 , the show 's original set , at the TV studio in the Hollywood Masonic Temple ( now known as the El Capitan Entertainment Centre ) , which had video screens in the background and the band performing on the left side of the stage , was replaced with the current set , which has a city in the background . The band now performs on the right side of the stage . </P>
