Fans who attended Arcade Fire’s arena show in Glasgow, Scotland, on Monday were treated to a cameo from a hometown hero, as the band brought Simple Minds frontman Jim Kerr on-stage early in the set to perform his band’s monster hit “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” — the song popularized, of course, by its appearance in John Hughes’ teen classic “The Breakfast Club.”
Below, check out several sources of footage of that performance.
