Just Another Gig In Another City On Another Saturday Night.... ...and just another bearded old guy in a beanie wandering onto the stage, just as you're coming to the end of your set. Except, when you're ...

Michael Shannon & Jason Narducy are more than just another R.E.M. covers band. Even so, if you were at their gig in Brooklyn on Saturday night, could you have imagined Michael Stipe getting on stage to perform a couple of songs?
