Following the story, an audience member asked Fallon if the band would be playing any covers, and suggested an Ed Sheeran tune.

Fallon jokingly bristled at the suggestion, and instructed the audience to boo the show-goer after he played a riff from Prince's " When Doves Cry. Where's [Social Distortion frontman] Mike Ness when you need him? What are you, writing for Pitchfork?
