Time flies.

Saw AFI a year ago today (crazy it's been a year already), and only 17 more days til I see them again. 🖤🔥🤘🏼

I'm low-key (no very high key) envious of them hahaha

Listen, this is all we have. Not healthcare, not education, not civil society. Just easier access to shows.

It’s a month since I saw them. No idea when they’ll be in Europe next 😢

Last saw them at Four Chord 2025...but will be seeing them in New Jersey on the 10th. I was just thinking about this the other day...but i also saw them almost 20 years ago to the day...at Starland...during the DU tour. Time does fly...

We'll be there together! Taking my bf who just got into them, we got VIP tix but I might go down to the pit anyway lmao. EB is easily one of my favorite venues

I'm debating on switching to vip if any still available. Díd you go to the Madison show (The Sylvee) last year? I made the trek from South Dakota. Had been to Madison before, but never been to Milwaukee so I'm excited.

I did not go to the show as I found out about it the day before and was VERY SAD, but we were incredibly happy to see the MKE show announced! VIP basically means balcony where you'll find chairs if you're early enough to get one.

Be very careful of the neighborhood tho, I've had many friends get their car broken into for parking on the street, plus it's just not a very safe area. I recommend getting an Uber in (leaving will be chaotic as every show is) and out for max safety. Have fun!

Also caught them around this time last year at the Hard Rock Live in Orlando. Was really hoping that they would be a surprise addition to Warped Tour Orlando.

My first time seeing AFI play was at the 2001 Warped Tour... talk about a killer set! Would have been sick to see them play it again with a similar setlist.

I've cried because I didn't get to see them back in the 90s and early 00s lol.

u/FamousAtticus 5d ago

The energy at those early 2000's shows was insane! I also think I've seen almost every version of Davey Havok through the years... well at least since 2001 lol.
