AFI ROCK THE ROXY FOR CRASH LOVE RELEASE PARTY
To celebrate the release of their eighth studio album, Crash Love, AFI took to the stage at the world famous Roxy on Sunset thanks to local Los Angeles radio station KROQ. In front of an intimate crowd of hundred’s, rather than thousands that typically fill AFI shows, the band played a thrashing 14 song set filled with classics of the past, and a handful of Crash Love gems that are soon to be just that. Highlights of the night were too many to capsulize, but front man Davey Havok’s front flip into the waiting crowd on “Kill Caustic” and the stunning rendition of The Cure’s classic “Just Like Heaven” marked just a few of the moments that lit up the night. Reminiscent of 1995, AFI welcomed Nick 13 (Tiger Army) and Geoff Kresge (ex AFI/Tiger Army) to the stage to sing “Nyquil,” a track from the band’s first album, Answer That and Stay Fashionable. Electric performances of AFI’s radio singles “Miss Murder” and Crash Love’s “Medicate” put a cap on a night that will not soon be forgotten by the fan’s lucky enough to be present that night.
Fans of AFI who could not be at the show now have the chance to watch a handful of videos from the epic evening on KROQ.com. To find out when and where you can see AFI live, visit AFireInside.net/events. Crash Love is in-stores now and available everywhere good music is sold.
No commentsJonas Brothers Delivered
You can call the Jonas Brothers every name in the book if you want but you certainly can’t call them liars. As they promised, the band of brothers did surprise some lucky fans by popping up at a screening of their new 3D film. Nick, Kevin and Joe showed up at the midnight premiere of their 3D movie at the El Capitan in Hollywood last night. A source reports that they treated the audience to an acoustic set before the movie began. Big Rob even showed up to rap on one of the songs! The Jonas Brothers performed ‘SOS’, ‘Love Bug’ and ‘Burnin Up’.
Britney Spears Apologizes
Britney Spears’ camp is trying to distance itself from the debacle at the London club this past weekend which caused a lot of fans to get angry. Sources close to the recovered singer say that she was never scheduled to perform or appear at the club and that the promoters of the night falsely spread info that Britney will be there. Not wanting to let down her fans, Britney decided to show up. But after it was determined that the venue was unsafely over capacity and that the crowds were too unruly, Brit ended up just going to the club’s VIP area where she stayed for a few hours, waving to fans down below.
