U2 and Jimmy Fallon gave Monday night commuters a sweet surprise with a spontaneous performance at Grand Central Station.

Bono and his band turned into buskers on the Shuttle train platform and performed songs like "Angel of Harlem" for a captivated crowd of onlookers.

U2 is scheduled to perform on the Tonight Show on Friday, a spokeswoman for the show said.

 

Last November, the band had to postpone a weeklong residency with the Tonight Show after a cycling accident left Bono with an injured arm.
