Need a little Uncle Jesse in your life? You got it, dude! It’s been almost 20 years since Jesse and The Rippers performed together, but the fictional "Full House" band reunited on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” on Friday and they absolutely delivered.

John Stamos, who played Jesse Katsopolis on "Full House," truly got in the spirit of the Jesse and The Rippers reunion, donning his signature mullet and black leather vest to sing a medley (above) of "Forever" by the Beach Boys, Elvis' "Little Sister," Chan Romero's "Hippy Hippy Shake" (which the band last performed at Walt Disney World on an episode of “Full House") and last, but certainly not least, the "Full House" theme song. Diehard "Full House" fans will notice the Smash Club sign hanging from the ceiling in Jesse and The Rippers' honor. Of course, Stamos threw in a "Have Mercy" mid-performance for good measure before he ran into the audience where fellow "Full House" alum Bob Saget danced along.

Lori Loughlin, who played Jesse's wife Rebecca (née Donaldson), even stopped by at the end of the performance to give Stamos a kiss. Whoa, whoa, whoa -- watch the hair, Aunt Becky!

Stamos is the second "Full House" alum to grace "Late Night" with his presence this week. On Thursday, Saget sat down with "Late Night" writer Arthur Meyer, a superfan of the comedian, who played Danny Tanner on the ABC series. Hilarity ensued, as you can see here.
