I first heard AFI in 2003, just after Sing the Sorrow came out. That year, they toured Australia & I saw them play at the Hi-Fi Bar. I remember singing so hard that my head started spinning & I thought I was going to faint.

Over the years, their music has kept me company through good times & bad, something I return to again & again like an old friend. 

In 2014, AFI played Soundwave. After more than a decade of being a fan, it was a really special experience to meet Davey. Especially wearing that suit. What a man, what a legend.
