So which part was the surprise, that Bruce showed up or that he played w/Hold Steady? I say neither...

Is that Salman Rushdie?

Am I crazy or is Craig Finn so excited that he screwed up the tempo of the song? Hahaha it was still great. If anyone can find M Ward doing "I'm Going Down" I'll be eternally grateful.
