This show was so much fun despite some technical difficulties. It was also my first time at the Midland, and while it looked beautiful, I wasn’t too impressed with it as a concert venue.
This was my counts fingers and toes 13th time seeing AFI (80% confidence) and last concert in the KC area before moving to Washington state.
Damn, 13th time? Awesome! And welcome to the boards! Thanks for telling us about the show. I have to live vicariously through you guys. Our East Coast run is done
Yeah early in the set they lost all audio for about 15-30 seconds but they recovered quickly, then later they had to do something about the stage and Davey had an “acapella session.”
The first time I saw them was in 99, at a small club in Lawrence, KS (rock chalk) with a stage that wasn’t even knee high and no barricade. Getting smashed up against the stage and being literally face to face with Davey, Jade, and Hunter is the best experience. I saw them I think four times at that venue alone, then numerous Warped Tours and a theater similar to the Midland also in downtown KC multiple times.
Warped 01 was my first time seeing them. The last show at Sayreville was the best. My February experience rekindled everything AFI in me. Prior to the February show it had been years since I saw them.
Davey never crowd walked during the earlier shows that I was at.
