The wildly popular band U2 hosted an impromptu concert at a subway stop underneath New York City’s Grand Central Station yesterday to the delight of the evening’s commuters. Check it out:

The stunt looks to have been organized by the Tonight Show’s Jimmy Fallon, who will host U2 on Friday:

Although it would have been a much better story if a) Fallon wasn’t involved and the band had thought this up on their own and b) they played the song “Angel of Harlem” actually in Harlem and not in midtown.
