What does a member of the famous E Street Band do with a night off from performing with Bruce Springsteen?
Well, if you're "Little" Steven Van Zandt, you jump right back on stage with the Hoodoo Gurus, who were performing in Melbourne on Friday night as part of the Zoo Twilights concerts.

Fans were given an unexpected surprise when Van Zandt, himself a fan of the Gurus, was invited on stage by the band for an impromptu jam.
"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," said Gurus' frontman Dave Faulkner.
"Little Steven is a fan ... and frequently plays us on his syndicated weekly radio show in the US along with garage music legends like the Seeds."
Van Zandt will be back on stage with the E Street Band at Hanging Rock in Mt Macedon on February 11 and then play at Hope Estate in the Hunter Valley, February 18, when the tour returns to New South Wales.
