Daron Malakian visited Chicago during System of a Down's two-night stand at Soldier Field. He took photos around Wrigley Field with his cousin and heard the intro to 'Needles' coming from a bar across the street. He entered the bar and discovered a System of a Down tribute band called Peephole performing. Malakian walked to the front of the stage, surprised the band and audience, and joined the band to sing 'Cigaro.' He documented the spontaneous performance on Instagram, shook hands with the tribute members, and described the experience as unplanned and priceless.
Let me start by saying None of this was planned. We had a day off before our show in Chicago and I went out to dinner and after I decided to go take some pictures around town with @gregwatermann. We didn't plan on going to Wrigley Field, but we ended up there. While we were taking photos in front of the stadium I heard the intro to 'Needles' from a bar across the street.
My cousin who was with me said that he thought it was karaoke. I decided to walk across the street and go into the bar and found that it was a @systemofadown cover band called @peepholesoad. I walked right to the front of the stage and surprised the band and the audience. This was all so spontaneous. The look on everyone's faces was priceless.
