I love how Adam has had the same haircut and black shirt for the entire career of the band XD. Sonically and fashionably they change with every album but there's always Adam in a black tee in the back banging like Animal on the drums. And that is the best thing ever.

Saw them in 1995 open for Swingin' Utters. Then the next time they came through they opened for Guttermouth. While Guttermouth was playing Davey was out in the crowd standing next to me and my GF watching the show. We chatted briefly, nice guy.

Beutyfull,Dear Rockstar Prince Night of the vox with Power , autority, Justice & Love the People peace & security dear Band AFI...now do you are our new Good-Satahan , heil heil
I'm impressed by how good Miss Murder was here. In a lot of their performances you can tell they dislike the song and are tired of it. But Davey put his all into this performance and it sounded great! I also think doing it first instead of saving it for last in the set was a good idea.
I'm glad I got to see AFI in 2006 at the peak of their popularity. This crowd is pathetic. When i saw them in Dec of 2006, there wasn't 1 person in the stadium who wasn't 100 percent into it.
God, the sound mixing on this is awful. Davey's mic is going in and out making his vocals sound wildly inconsistent. You even see him at 11:25 motioning for them to raise the volume on his mic.
Everyone bitching about the mixing or the band themselves: You know damn well you would've enjoyed this if you were there watching it live. Hush. Also, they sound just fine.
I love AFI I love blaqk audio davey's a good singer but lay off the dude he is 43 and he's been in AFI for 20 something years so his voice will be a little worn out but he's still great at singing and I would love to see them live one day I don't care about davey's voice or how they're supposed to sound I just wanna go to have a fun time
Let me hear you sing.. Let me see you rock the stage.. Can you write a song? Will it be relevant? Keyboard warriors who just sit around and can't even take command of a meaningful life. As long as bands and artist like AFI continues to make music, the future is still worth looking forward to.
My husband and I saw them the next night in Sacramento and I can confirm that the sound here is absolute garbage. You might be able to see some clips here on UA-cam if you search for the Sacramento ace of spades afi performance. It was december 9th
Thank you for posting!!! They were amazing and the highlight of the night in Calgary this past September on Mourning in Amerika. Who is The Missing Man???
Something is off about Davey's vocals. Maybe it's the mixing? I noticed it on the new EP, too, though. It's like he's trying to hit higher pitches than his vocal cords can handle.
Davey's unclean vocals have been shot since like 2013. It probably doesn't help that they don't play live often anymore. Now it seems his clean vocals are pretty shot too.
XanthelinHS Yeah. His lyrics are pretty shot too, lately. The new EP is amateur hour for lyrics and melody. I think Davey needs a break (and maybe another vocal surgery). I wouldn’t mind seeing the rest of the guys do something with another vocalist just for fun.
saw them live a few yrs ago and was worried his voice was shot from other youtube vids i saw, but they ended up sounding great. Could be a combination of things, but I still love AFI!

You guys are such winers. Havok is an excellent singer. He is rough during Miss Murder, but after warming up he sounds great. He even decently screams too. He's 40. His performance is comendable. Most bands could never sing this well. Most rock singers can barely be heard live. Because their voices don't cut through the mix. LOL, PLEASE. HE DOESN'T SOUND LIKE SHIT. "I HOPE YOU SUFFER" SOUNDS FINE. And yes, the mix could be a lot better. Listen to 21:35 and onward. That's great work.
Well I don't believe it's "whining " to be disappointed in a performance you saw which you know in the past was 20 times better. You said it yourself, they're getting oooold! As you get older you lose some things but gain others like diversity and wisdom/experience. Unfortunately your God given talents can wear with time and did with Havoks amazing youthful voice. Go to 2003 MTV live performance and listened to AFI then and tell me their current sound and or popularity is anywhere close! If their popularity is it's because of their greatness in that time and shortly after. But that was one of the liveliest crowds ever during their concerts and sounded better then their album...that's very hard to do because as you stated most bands aren't anywhere close live as compared to their albums. Unfortunately that's where AFI has been for quite some time now. If it weren't for the high vocals and constant screams it wouldn't have happened but that's also how their fame became so huge!
I agree, it sounds to me here like Havok's mic is too low, or his in ear monitor is too low, and so he can't really hear himself. This causes him to really strain to sing, just so he can hear himself. I think this problem, well it's a factor here. But I believe all of us are kind of saying the same thing, and agree more than we disagree. He is a great singer, and his voice is starting to show it's age. But, that doesn't take away from the energy of the crowd and performance. Also, everyone's excitement for this band only builds up over the years. So even if the performance isn't technically perfect, we still love to see this band STILL playing their hearts out. Im sure the people who were at this show, loved it. I finally saw AFI in January of 2012, after being a fan since 1998, and I loved the show, it was absolutely, the best. AFI fans are loyal, so loyal, that the crowd's vocals are written into their songs, and during live shows, these special vocal parts are reproduced very accurately, by many enthusiastic singers in the crowd.
Hard rock live when it was on MTV when sing the sorrow came out that year. All those songs before that Davey performance was A1. This is like give us the paycheck and we good. Very proud of ya by far or Halloween ep favorite albums
He's sounded like this for a long time. IMO AFI hasn't been good live since 2009, there was very few live performances after that until 2013, where his voice was just totally shot, and it's been that way ever since.
I will always say they are my number 1 band, but my god since crash love, when they perform live, davey sounds flat ALL OF THE TIME and it really puts me off going to see them which I hate 😪😪😪
Davey needs to hang up the mike . His voice is shot. You had a great run man! More bands need to retire with honor like atheletes do. I don’t understand why they keep going as shells of themselves to make a buck. Davey maybe should start producing (coach) and help bring in new bands that are inspired by AFI.
I love how Adam has had the same haircut and black shirt for the entire career of the band XD. Sonically and fashionably they change with every album but there's always Adam in a black tee in the back banging like Animal on the drums. And that is the best thing ever.
Lol very true
How do feel now?

I saw them in Canada a few months ago, cant wait to see them again!
I don’t care what anyone says they were amazing in person during this,.the whole room literally lit up with energy as soon as they were announced.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I’m so happy my mom raised me listening to this band! I wish I had money to see them live!!
Lumpy space Noodle Phan! And I wish I had been raised on this…
Fabulous Killjoy EEK davey is my childhood ICON! My family would listen to him during road trips! My mom has held up facets foot before and caught a broken drumstick and fought a lady for it. My mom is crazy lmao
Lumpy space Noodle Ugh that sounds like funnnnnn
Aside from any sound mishaps, that was a fantastic performance. Wish it was longer
I would pay upwards of 300 bucks for a ticket if AFI did a tour only playing the Art of drowning.
Same.
They need to fire the sound guy that was in charge of Davey's mic, no consistency. It's such a shame because I really enjoyed the performance.
I agree. You can even see Davey signaling him at one point like "turn it up man" haha
yeah i totally agree, these judgemental idiots below shitting on daveys vocals just dont get it!
On the other hand the camera guys were on point 👌🏻
Davey dramatically fell to the ground at least 25 times, crowd walk, Hunter singing, climbing on stuff, and a great jacket. Awesome 👍
"Davey dramatically fell to the ground at least 25 times"
And that's just in the first song!
Within a 20 min set!
Yeah he spent most of the time on the floor, let’s be honest 😂
EGO
I was in the front row in the middle and literally it was insane. Especially when he decided to walk into the crowd!!!
Hope to see them live someday. Life goal.
You guys, I saw them in January 2017 and IT WAS AMAZING. I never went harder in a pit before.
oh, this brought joy to my heart. i love them.
Everytime they're in town. I see them live.
Davey always has awesome jackets
it's so ironic for straightedgers to be presented by vodka
Davey's flourishing bow at the end though. I love him
I love Davey's jacket!
I love AFI ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
A great show from a great band!
I was introduced to afi in 2005 loved their music still do. Yes they all changed but thats okay still amazing
13:32 AFI presented by Absolut...Straight Edge irony
LMAO FKN BRILLIANT OBSERVATION 😂😂😂😂😂
AFI isn't strait edge just 2 of the members.
I get drunk and listen to AFI.

Wow is that the same singer from when the music video for miss murder came out?? If so he literally looks like a completely different person. Crazy.
Safelanding Records it sure is.

There’s a sound engineer who should be out of work for this
hes singing as loud as he can into that mic. not fair to the band, the audience or Davey's beautiful voice.
Kroq just doesn't give a fuck

Any guitar players know what the double cutaway Jade is playing is 17 Crimes is?
Let me hear you sing.. Let me see you rock the stage.. Can you write a song? Will it be relevant?
Keyboard warriors who just sit around and can't even take command of a meaningful life.
As long as bands and artist like AFI continues to make music, the future is still worth looking forward to.
Well said!
JADE ISN'T PLAYING A GIBSON? WHAT UNIVERSE AM I IN?
Xero Delacroix they give away free Gibson’s to good guitarist. I’m just saying......
Haha yeah man, he’s started playing Yamaha revstars. They’re awesome guitars !
Based off this entire performance, an alternate one.
I just saw this comment by the end of the video but seems to me at @25:44 that is a Gibson LP
OMFG I need to know where I can get that jacket 🤩
watched this live when the webcast was airing. they’re sounding great here but the mix is wayyyyy compressed and unleveled
My husband and I saw them the next night in Sacramento and I can confirm that the sound here is absolute garbage. You might be able to see some clips here on UA-cam if you search for the Sacramento ace of spades afi performance. It was december 9th
Thank fuck he got them to turn the mic volume up in Get Dark so much better

Something is off about Davey's vocals. Maybe it's the mixing? I noticed it on the new EP, too, though. It's like he's trying to hit higher pitches than his vocal cords can handle.
He's been singing an octave lower for a while now. It's hard to sign high when you get older.
Its called getting older Lol

I think I know what you're trying to say. Something like... "wow, Davey can't sing anymore. Bummer"

I love old AFI, hell I know they are old and bands change but it feels like I'm watching Morrisey.
Davey is such a ham Best front man in the last 20 years easy

Its AAC, the event itself always fucking sucks.
thought i was getting hacked at 1:44
mini panic attack.
Wtf is this mixing?

Skipped to Days of the Phoenix. Is something wrong with Havok's vocals?
Seriously 7 songs 27 min performance ?? Come on guys.
Almost can't hear the singer Christmas 2018
All Hallows’ lol?
i guess no one knows what "almost acoustic christmas" means
23:40. What the actual fuck Davey. That shriek isn’t normally that high.
Fanfuckingtactic
Vengan a México
Sound dude just using overheads in the stadium or what?
Who knew people would still be listening to emo kids.
hey i was at the show. is there any chance you’d upload the raw file u captured to google drive or somewhere? it’d mean the world to me!
Davey's voice is shot. Band looks weathered. Time for them to take a couple months off and recharge.
They takes years off at a time lol. His voice is shot, and it's not gunna get any better, it's been this way since 2013.
Woooooo yamaha revstar all the way!!!!
i was 337 like.
love the sound, but why is his cross upside down? wardrobe malfunction...
What's with Daveys voice? Was he ill?
