  • What a fricking voice!!!!M

  • Damn that dude can sing!!!

  • Those 15 people can lick my butt hole.

  • that voice. damn

    

  • 0:53 - 0:57 O_O

  • @TMoney1234567891011 Problem :D?

  • @JooeLopezOffice97 Nope, that was just freakin sweet.... I wish i could do that :D

  • Davey seems to be in a happier and better state of mind here...later live performances seem lacking in areas. I'm sorry, I just had to say this. Thoughts?

  • i love that this is a band we can all watch doing live stuff, and actually be able to expect them to sound exactly like they do on the record, and they do it--perfectly.

  • This song is awesome

  • What!!!!???? mTv playing (REAL) music!!

  • yuck jonas brothers how dare you attempt an afi song.....

  • LOOKS LIKE SO MUCH FUNN!!!! FFFUNNN FUN FUN FUNN!!!

  • anyone else find 1:46 badass?

  • @parentalpa Nothing Hapenned...

  • 1,30 year and my hair will be like his

  • It would be sooo awesome being there.......

  • 2003 era. back at that time emo and nu metal and new Rock stuff are being play here in Manila. this is one of those stuff.

  • I remember watching this live… Those were the good days

  • 1:46 "the maestro" cool

  • should've never cut his hair...

    

  • okay Davey... let's just hit the ending note exactly the way it's supposed to be hit. You immortal bastard..

  • @summerskiss328 He can't hit that anymore since his surgery =(

  • What is the song at the end of the video?

  • Jades got some moves there

  • i dont fully like this one cuz to me it sounds kinda edited, its too perfect sounding and no offense but theyre not fully perfect live, but no band really is. im just saying tho, i absolutely LOVE afi.

  • Can I download full video of this concert?

  • Why when Davey sings this song, it sounds like the album version, if not better, but Miss Murder always sounds weird?

  • @ChildrenOfInfidelity He had throat surgery after they finished recording Sing the Sorrow. He's stated in an interview that he's been going to different vocal coaches to learn how to scream/sing in a way that's less damaging to his voice. My guess is that the change in technique is more difficult to nail live, as opposed to just screaming and singing however he wants, such as in this video.

  • @ChildrenOfInfidelity Couldn't agree with you more

  • i'm not gay, but davey havok is SEXY

  • I really love this performance of this song, there's such a "feel-good" and happy vibe going round between them.

  • Hunter is a badass and such an underrated bass player!

  • I remember watching this on TV and freaking out :)

  • Mtv

  • 1:27 he looks a little happy...

  • his voice is a bit higher and the recorded video probably lags

  • lipsync much?

    0:46

    sad.

  • @fatwreckdsucks how is it lip synced if it sounds different from the recorded version? also, the sound is mastered so...

  • @Choralseptic He closes his mouth before the note is over...

  • @fatwreckdsucks I noticed it too xD

  • @fatwreckdsucks Lip sync or not you'll never produce anything nearly as epic as this.

  • @BermyRaji k bro

  • @fatwreckdsucks no man check the video lag first

  • @katzer6907 there is no video lag.

    idk if youve ever heard a live performance. this doesnt sound like one. this is no regular live performance. this is MTV. this was on TV. this was seen by millions. This was lypsynced.

  • @fatwreckdsucks Video is lagging, trust me, Davey would never agree to lypsyncing, even if his life depended on it

  • @LongviewGD182 lol, no im sorry. this is lipsynced. its quite obvious.

  • @fatwreckdsucks Wow stubborn arent you? How is it "quite obvious"? If you think this is lipsynced than you:

    1) Have never performed live

    2) Have never listened to any AFI albums

    3) Have never seen any AFI live shows

    4) Just hate AFI and try to bring them down any way you can

    Go listen to "Days of the Phoenix" in this same show. Go listen to the Art of Drowning version and tell me its lipsynced. AFI are one of the best live bands ever. They dont need to lip-sync

  • @LongviewGD182 check this vid out. "AFI - Girl's not Grey live at KROQ 2008!"

    this is what they sound like live. should be in the suggestions.

    im not saying anything bad about the band, i like this song, i like them fine. but its easy to tell this performance is either overdubbed. or lypsynced.

  • @fatwreckdsucks Meh. That performance is from 2008. Their newer lives arent as good. As I said, go watch the Days of The Phoenix from this same show and youll see that it isnt lipsynced, and it sounds amazing

  • does anybody have the chords for this? if anyone has them please message me!! its for this summer school project thing. i did mine on afi.

  • Jade's high 5 at 1:11 is awesome

  • His voice is so particular

  • What is MTV doing playing music?! x]

  • Comment removed

  • 0:52

    MAN!

  • AFI is so great live. It makes me appreciate them so much more, how they dont do all that recording studio crap to make their sound different.

    ~a fire inside forever!~

  • 2:50 the best part yeahhhh

  • They're a cool band with some heavy songs. Singer looks cool with long or short hair. Thankfully, there's still some good music around these days.

  • A.F.I will always be one of my favorite Bands even if I prefer their older stuff.

    Great live band, seen them 6 times now. (99 warped tour was the best)

  • @AugustBurnsRed23 wow and i only saw them 2 times

  • @Skkid1

    Are you using your phone? I seem to have the same problem using my phone.

  •  the best band ever

  • =Pjeje kelindo♥

  • Why is it so fucking hard to find a song thats not live

  • i love AFI

  • what was the song at the end?

  • does davey change his hairstyle every album?

    2:18 davey on top of Mtv sign

  • @Jar3D226 yes he does.

  • does davey change his hairstyle every album?

  • They're better live. Hard for me to say that about most bands.

  • 12 people swallow whole!

  • @SorryiCantbePerfect8 they are

  • can you imagine being one of those people that touched Jade's hand? I would probably die. right there. O.O

  • They can do no wrong!

  • 0:44 and on sounds like they're singing,"Swallow!" in the background

  • @SorryiCantbePerfect8 they are. the lyrics say "swallow hole" the words just blend to sound like they are only saying "swallow"

  • @dabest6277 Swallow *whole*

  • They opened for green day 21 century break down tour and they sucked

  • No lipsync, just Davey. And yes foolish mortals.... he is that good

  • Oh, Davey... your voice is amazing :) But, I'm sure you know that

    I am just awestruck at the tone and quality of his voice live in this song! I was never that "in control" while jumping around on stage!

  • I am 60 years old. . . .have seen The Doors, Janis Joplin, The Stones, Fred Zephelin. . . . . .this band "gots balls"!

  • wow he sings good live!

  • god that crowd was wild where everyone was pushing

  • @sithmasterjedidode Thats called a mosh pit, buddy.

  • @Zwillowies 0h,

  • Love his hair :D

  • best version

  • Can I go back in time, and be 18 ish in 2003 to go to this concert?! PLEASE?!

  • This guys are awesome.. <3 AFI FTW

  • youtube lies it doesnt have 212,536 views

    it has over a million xD

  • he is way hotter with long hair....just sayin

  • those 11 people who disliked just had a muscle spazzam and accidently clicked it

  • About 1000 of those view are from me alone. Best version of this live ever

  • say what you want about AFI's new music but back at this time they where truly great they are brilliant performers as you can see here

  • awesomness

  • 2:50 - 2:55 EARGASM

  • maybe i have a bit of a chip on my shoulder after listening to Metallica, Pantera and Avenged Sevenfold for the past 10 years but I can't help but feel like the audience's devil horn hand gestures are a little mis-placed. just saying

  • @gold5000000 Hah Metalica blows :D but Pantera and A7X

  • his voice kinda sounds like andy sixx from black veil brides

  • @lesaymortay1 Andy Sixx sounds like Davey Havok not the other way around. Andy appeared in 06 with his band Black veil brides Davey appeared in about 93 with AFI. see the difference?

  • @MrJoeBH o yea lol sorry ha

  • @lesaymortay1 not at all. 

  • It's not live... they must have pre-recorded the track. Look at 1:35, Dave takes the mic away from his mouth way before the note has finished. Seriously, there's no debate. Look at other live videos of this song, none of them are anywhere near the quality of this performance. Some of the vox are auto-tuned too. There is also a second guitar track playing during the lead part in the intro.

    I like the song, but why deny the obvious?!

  • @biscuits3331 I decided to check what you were saying about the mic with my own sounds gear. i have pretty high quallity sound gear for a bigginer but nothing like what AFI would have considering their sound gear would come to about a total of $400,000 or so and mine is worth $3500. but the point is with one of my mics (its worth about $100) i could have it sitting in my lap and still picking up what i was singing and davey would be a much louder singer then me and his mic would be much better.

  • @MrJoeBH - yes, a mic several feet away can still pick up the voice. Now try singing right into it, then taking it away. Notice the difference? I appreciate the fact that you own some audio gear, but I've been playing in bands, recording/producing bands, and doing live sound for 15 years... trust me, as soon as he takes it away from his mouth in that situation, you'd stop hearing it.

  • @biscuits3331 Watch a video of Brent Smith of Shinedown singing.

    Different techniques for different singers go different ways, and experienced singers know where to put the mic for certain ways of singing. Example: When Brent sings with a LOT of power, by the shape of his mouth, the sound goes almost straight down.

    As for the guitar overdubs? There aren't any. Hunter has a slightly fuzzy tone in that part, and Jade is just playing the lead guitar on top of it. No overdubs.

  • @biscuits3331 did i say i was a new to the industry? no i said i used cheapish gear i have been a audio tech for a very long time 20 or so years. and using my cheap gear (with backiing tracks) also as you take the mic away you increase the volume level so it picks up more i dont know about you as a audio tech but i generally run my lines at about quarter of full volume for the lead vocalist as most tend to do stupid shit with mics.

  • @MrJoeBH - also... how do you explain the guitar overdubs at the start?

  • @biscuits3331 I'm pretty sure thats Hunter with a distorted bass but whatever

  • @biscuits3331 true, theres clearly some post production on these things. Especially from MTV, and alot of live dvds.

  • I know they kinda sold out, but hey it made them more popular. And I dont really see who couldnt like this song. Its catchy!

  • the little dance jade does at 1:28 is so cute

    

  • i dont believe it was lip synced... but the way jade doesnt play... and then its still making strumming noises.... 0:49 for example... actually watching this again.. it does seem like he is lip syncing.. actually i dunno :(

  • I would date dandy and hav his baby lol jk

  • @oxXJustGabrielleXxo Um...? You mean Davey?

  • Am I really the only person who feels that AFI can do no wrong? They could put out an album full of Justin Beiber covers and I will still think of them as Gods and buy 6 copies of the CD.

    Really. :)

  • @SaraShayne agreed :)

  • @SaraShayne

    They could cover "Friday" and make it good

  • @SaraShayne Justin Bieber + AFI is #WINNING. Hey, those Bieber songs are catchy!

  • @SaraShayne As long as they don;t start having live and Album versions totally different, I just hate when people do that.

  • @SaraShayne I agree haha

  • super! super! cmok cmok mmmmmmmmmmm

  • Jade is love. :D

  • this musta been a fuckin party

  • @ILiveForTheRofl

    bitches are going to bitch

  • Drummer adam is so cool

  • @darknightza ROFL he looks exactly like a friend of mine. And guess what, he also plays drums :P We gonna start a band as soon as we find a place to play. Yaay im gonna have Adam in my band <3

  • @ILiveForTheRofl Haters are going to hate.

  • 0:52 awesome guitar spin!

  • DAMN I WISH I WAS THR!!!! THEY SOUNDED GREAT!!

  • whats the ultimate name song ? 

  • @apmh030993 thought riot - with love, the underground

  • I wish Davey would go back to this style, this is where he looked his best

  • A.F.I is my absolute favorite band! They have inspired me in so many ways, thank you so much for posting this video of their earlier performances, truly an amazing band!!! =)

  • he sounds kinda diffrent now

  • 0:54 - 0:57.

    Ye.

  • gay singer

  • @monsterjamfreak1 fascist.

  • janes so yummy

  • i miss his long sexy hair

  • L.O.V.E his long sexy black hair and makeup yum

  • Lol. Watch Jade's head when he sings at 1:26. 'Tis adorable.

  • @despina013 ahhhhhhh that is adorable!!!!!!

  • ops playback

    

  • afi is the best , i dont give a damn about what anyone says

  • ahh the glory days of afi

  • 2:50 to 2:53 amaziing ! he had some really good vocals, shame they got busted up but i still love him =] x

  • Nothing like a bunch of homophobic jocks to ruin a great video

    Worst part is no one in AFI is gay

  • go rub the bassists bald head

  • Classic AFI! his voice nowadays is completely gone its sad.

  • @photographyjk yeah, this performance is probably Davey's best performance ever. too bad he had to get vocal cord surgery :(

  • just going to point out the fact that due to the Jade's move @ 0:55, it makes it obvious that guitar-wise they are not even playing their own song. (my evidence is the fact that you can clearly hear an electric lead playing the moment he does the move...and no it's not a sustained note...and yes i double-checked the video...whats better evidence is that i have seen this live, and it's clear to everyone...however, i do enjoy the music of AFI)

  • @mclovin34105 Dude, fuck off. In spite of the last bit of the comment you are indeed a dumbass. look up the fucking tabs. Jade is the shit. point blank, plain and simple. Im so fucking tired of hearing a bunch of pussies bitch because they cant play a fucking instrument like amazing musicians ( Jade, Hunter, Adam, Davey etc. ) Get a fucking hobby... Pussy.

  • I miss this Davey. He needs to come back!

    and Jade's blonde needs to come back!

  • Whats the song at the end???

  • 1:24 = jade=win

  • @puttzmetal180 it really is!

  • They all need to get a sex change to complete the process. It makes me proud that I sacrificed those many years in Iraq, for these guys to sell so many many albums, to salad tossing emos just like them.

  • @Darkatanforever Your a soldier? God bless you.

  • Aww you went and spent time in the desert shooting innocent civs and you feel as though someone owes you something? Couldn't make it in college go to the military! Couldn't create your own company? Go to the military. Good luck with feeling better than everyone else for shooting random people who wanted you off their land. :)

    BTW: I'm in the army, I know what I'm talking about. Suck it bitch ass.

  • @Darkatanforever what does iraq have to fucking do with a music video? I think you need to go speak to some counsellors if you're seeing iraq everywhere you homophobic prick. just because you've got a gun, doesn't make you anymore then a man.

  • i love this band man .... but damn they look so fucking GAY

  • perfectly hit the note

    and i was there BITCHES!!!

  • @spyhunter1223 Your bragging about being at a afi concert? WHOAH!! i been to bon jovi, cinderella, poison, and whitesnake. i have you beat. They are better than anyone we have in this decade. Sadly iv never been to a KISS concert

  • poison- dont like em. whitesake- okay. bon jovi- has his songs.

    idk who cinderella is.

    metallica in 93, a7x, disturbed, afi, tiger army, the misfits, danzig (sadly, not part of the misfits; im not that old), and afi.

    its not a contest. thats who ive seen. there is no contest. i have you beat.

  • @spyhunter1223 cinderella sings "Dont know what you got till its gone". But the bands i mentioned are better then the ones you'v been to. No disrespect but they'v all had more album sales and more concert sell outs.

  • concert selling out & cd sales dnt mean a great band.

    the jonas brothers sell lots of records but suck. so thats not a good reason to THINK you've been to better concerts than me. i was at the black sails release show in 99. there is no better concert than that.

    if you are going to use album sales and stadiums selling out then i have you beaten anyways. METALLICA. their black album alone (not their best just the highest selling) sold more than any of those bands you named put together. i win
