Gym Class Heroes Cover Arctic Monkeys at MSG

Last week I went to see Gym Class Heroes and Fall Out Boy at Madison Square Gardens.  Whatever you think of Gym Class Heroes, they are phenomenal performers - it may have  helped that they are from New York, but they were charged up for every song, engaged the crowd, and generally went turned up every song in some way or another.  At one point they covered the Arctic Monkeys song "Leave Before the Lights Come On", which was the highlight of the night for me.  Fall Out Boy was also great, and covered "Mr. Brightside" by the Killers, but our recording didn't come out very well.
