Jade on "The Oral History of AP"

Jade is featured on December 2010's edition of AP for their "The Oral History of AP" installment. He states:

"2002: The Days of The Phoenix"

Growing up in a small town, we didn't even know AP existed. But looking back at those early covers - Bad Brains, Depeche Mode, Dead Kennedys, so many great, influential bands - I wish I had. AP was the first bigger magazine to consistently support AFI, from then until now. And it was the first magazine cover I was ever on, so it will always have a special place for me. We've always gotten a fair shake from AP, and since the magazine has been covering us for so many years, I do feel like they know the history. We've known Aaron [Wilson] and Norman for years, and those guys have always been awesome and supportive, knowledgeable and just cool.

Many thanks to Danielle Moore for the tip!
