He’s a member of the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame, was the longtime band leader for Conan O’Brien and is the drummer for the legendary Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, and he’s coming to the Great New York State Fair in Syracuse.

In an interesting twist, you'll get to pick the set list. The audience will choose every song the band performs from a list of 200 songs.

"This is big for the Fair's music fans: You get to see one of the greatest rock drummers of all time and you tell him what to play. When has that ever happened before? This is a unique night and one for the memory books," said interim Fair Director Sean Hennessey.
