Early in the night, the Canadian rocker, who is touring behind his latest album, Roll With the Punches, invited Benatar and her husband, guitarist Neil Giraldo, to come out and jam. They knocked down a potent version of Stevie Wonder's "Superstition" together, a nod to the area's rich musical history.
"Over the last couple of American tours, we've had the great pleasure of having Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo [and] it's been incredible having them out on tour with us," Adams told the crowd at Little Caesars Arena. "You know something? We've never had them on stage before until tonight." (UCR reports)
Because they were in "Motown City," as he called it, they decided to commemorate the moment and play something special together. Thanks to @MichiganLiveMusic, you can see the moment below.
The "Superstition" collaboration was a good way to finish off their tour together, which wrapped up (at least for now) on Sunday evening (Aug. 16) with a performance in Milwaukee. But both sides will stay busy. Adams has a run of Canadian headlining dates that will carry him through mid-September.
