After months of inactivity, a member of The Strokes will appear on Saturday Night Live in consecutive weeks.
Last week, Julian appeared in Lonely Island’s 100th Digital Short.
This week, Nikolai will play bass with Mick Jagger and Arcade Fire. Niko just announced the news on his Twitter feed, writing…
I will be playing bass with @MickJagger and @arcadefire tmrw on @nbcsnl! Tune in if you can!!
I can’t wait to experience Niko’s gangly badassness tomorrow night alongside one of my favorite bands.
You’re a star, Niko. You’re a star.

This is so great, I can’t wait to see it. Yeah.
Pretty eclectic mix of artists, it should be fun to watch!
yeeeees
Yeah Nikolai! These guys are making me watch SNL regularly, lol!
Maybe Fab will do the Weekend Update for Seth Meyers next week!
@Annie
he’s got the humor for it
OMG that would be AWESOME! I could really see fab doing it too
This is shaping up to be the most exciting SNL in years.
I love Arcade Fire. It will be amazing. Can’t wait to see.
Does anyone know if they’ll be doing Arcade Fire songs – Stones songs – or what?
@LillySu
Isn’t it a coincidence, we were having that conversation about Nikolai (moving or not moving) just yesterday on the other thread – and here now he’s making big news!
Maybe he’ll be inspired to rock it out a little with Arcade Fire!
@Choco
Fab has such a great personality – he’s funny but is such a good speaker.
I wonder if (down the road) he would ever be interested in doing something on TV like that? – seriously!
@Eric, I knew you’d be excited about that tweet
Arcade Fire already have a bass player, so MAYBE Jagger will be doing three musical spots. One with the Foo Fighters as his backing band, one with Arcade Fire as his backing band and then Nikolai will be playing bass with Jeff Beck and Jagger for the third.
Just a theory.
Brian Wallace
Maybe Beck, Jagger and Nikolai will do “Memo From Turner.” That would ROCK!
Brian
Jagger reduces himself to ‘Soma’.
