Just discovered that I’d not uploaded pictures from last Thursday’s AFI show at the Granada. It was the East Bay band’s first tour in over three years, and anticipation was high. Goth kids, hardcore kids, rockers … it was a lot of people in very dark clothes, and wearing an awful lot of makeup, lace, and mesh.
Super-great show — Touche Amore and Coming kicked things off really well. Touche Amore is always always always worth checking out live (first time I’ve been used as a stepping stone in the photo pit, too), and Coming was a pleasant surprise — sort of like vintage AmRep stuff mixed with Deathwish-style hardcore.
Go check it out — the tour continues through November 2. Dates can be found at Punknews.
