ReplyDeleteDid anyone read TimeOut Chicago review??Please do because it is just stupid!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Examiner said STS and DU were excellent mid-1990s albums. ...what?!
ReplyDeleteEW did the same thing. Apparently most of their performance was their mid-90s hits
ReplyDeleteAlso, is it me or does BeatCrave make it sound like they played Strength Through Wounding?
ReplyDeleteFlash, BeatCrave may be referring to the crowd chanting STW. We were chanting for a good 5 minutes before the boys came on stage.
ReplyDeleteI was standing a little way back and no one around me was an AFI fan. The crowd seemed a little tough--not really into AFI, kind of a "prove it to me" vibe. Three songs in, they were chanting A!F!I! It was awesome, watching 15 or 20 thousand people turn into dyed-in-the-wool fans in 5 minutes. But the band KILLED. This was my 5th show, and it was one of the best I've seen. IF davey can physically reach the crowd, it just takes it to a whole other level.
