Steven Van Zandt Joins Hoodoo Gurus Onstage In Melbourne

Taking some time out from his duties in Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, legendary US musician and actor Steven Van Zandt, aka Little Steven, jammed onstage with Aussie rock icons Hoodoo Gurus in Melbourne last night.

Springsteen and co had a night off in Vic last night in-between two shows at AAMI Park, and Van Zandt headed down to watch Hoodoo Gurus’ Melbourne Zoo Twilight Concert, which quickly snowballed when the band realised he was side-of-stage.

“Not content to just let him watch we pulled him up on stage for an unrehearsed finale, joining us for The Seeds’ psychedelic rocker, Pushin’ Too Hard, which none of us had played before,” Hoodoo Gurus frontman Dave Faulkner said.

“The Gurus will be Steven’s guest at [E Street Band’s] Tuesday concert in Sydney, though I doubt we’ll be asked to perform in their encore!” he added.

Van Zandt frequently plays the Hoodoo Gurus and The Seeds on his weekly US radio show Little Steven’s Underground Garage.
