They joined the performers for “Pretty Persuasion,” a song from R.E.M.’s Reckoning.

Shannon and Narducy were performing with their R.E.M. cover band at the 40 Watt Club, in R.E.M.’s hometown of Athens. Michael Stipe, Peter Buck and Bill Berry joined them for “Pretty Persuasion.” Mike Mills came on partway through, bringing all four R.E.M. members into the performance.
