Wednesday night in Brooklyn, the Ergs! covered "Screaming at a Wall" in "honor" of the "passing" of a hardcore legend, as the lovable pop–punk dorks put it. It was awesome. They applied the icing when they ended the set with "Bikeage"; yeah, you're jealous.

If you're keeping score, Cloak/Dagger put on a great set too.
