Mick Jagger will perform with Arcade Fire AND Foo Fighters on SNL season finale, May 19th

[Amerigo Vespucci]

Mick Jagger will be joined by Arcade Fire and Foo Fighters when he performs on the season finale of Saturday Night Live on May 19th, Entertainment Weekly reports. It's unclear what Jagger will sing with the two bands, but odds are good that he will revisit Rolling Stones classics to celebrate his band's 50th anniversary.

Jagger will be the host of the episode as well as the musical guest. Jagger has never hosted the program on his own, though he shared that duty with the rest of the Rolling Stones back in 1978. Arcade Fire and Foo Fighters are no strangers to the program either: the Canadian rock collective has been a musical guest twice, and Foo frontman Dave Grohl has performed on the show 10 times previously with the Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Them Crooked Vultures and Tom Petty.

1. Season finale?

Geez, it seems like all they do is play reruns.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'll record it.

2. Well, that should be worth watching.

Some of the musical acts they've had lately were sad ... Lana Del Rey, Karmin, One Direction ... Seriously, this is the best they could do???

4. That's the state of music these days

although I like Karmin and One Direction.

3. When Jagger dies

his manager is going to have him stuffed and mounted on wheels, so he can continue to tour.

5. I'd bet the farm that Keith Richards will be the last surviving member of the Stones n/t
