  • Do you know how many songs Davey has probably been singing non-stop?

    I'm surprised that his voice has still been able to sustain for this length of time.

    You have to understand it's not easy to sing his style of songs, back to back.

  • @grungifiedtwo You say that as if AFI was the only band around. There are more bands that are older than AFI, and they're better than AFI live. AFI live now is shit compared to what they were in 03.

  • @TheSecretNinja337 Nope.

    I mean this for all lead singers in general. I am a lead singer for a rock band and it's not easy to sing like 5-10 songs straight for a tour.

    Sure...their sound has deteriorated a bit. But that's because they aren't going to be composing punk rock or horror punk anymore.

    They're moving on with their lives,

  • @grungifiedtwo Power metal bands do it in a heart beat, check out bands like Symphony X, Rhapsody of Fire etc. Those vocalists are dead on. Davey is still good at what he does though!

  • At some point.. Davey reminded me of a stripper in the beginning when he was erm.. dancing ? xD

    I love them. :3

  • Damn. His perseverance throughout makes the entire song that much better. Kudos to you Davey, kudos to you Hunter, Jade, and Adam. Keep on rockin'.

  • davey clearly doesnt care that he fuckedd up near the end he just keeps goin on

    AFI are so amazing <3

  • How dare anyone call him a sell-out man

    He definetly cares about his performance

    A lot of singers I've seen, when they fuck up bad, they slam the mic and end the song

    Davey would never

    And besides they just played a full tour, playing this song every night and I bet this didn't happen at all

    I could be wrong, but I doubt it

  • u have look i need translate the songs for stand it...:S (i talk spanishh:(:(:( )

  • ya he are sick in the video

  • Who gives a shit about his voice? That doesn't mean the song isnt less beautiful, and I quite like his voice. Do you hate AFI just because the way he sounds live after that many years of screaming? Answer that and stay fashionable, bitches.

  • He still sounds good but not like old scool Davey his voice seems deeper at times. And yeah his voice cracked shit happens. Doesnt mean he isnt a good singer or they are a shitty band. AFI is in my opinon one of the best bands out there.

  • Davey is bi if any of you didn't know

  • Afi one of my fav band :D

  • I love how when his voice went out twice he just smiled. And then killed the rest of it with power..

    Afi kicks ass. End of story.

  • @bug9986 I love that bit. He has such a cute smile to :].

  • I want A.F.I. in Zagreb,that's one of my biggest wishes. Amazing performance! LOVE A.F.I.

  • fuck he messed up but hey.. hard note to get to.. fucked up tho..

  • haha it was amazing, i was there, i had pit tickets so i was right up against the rail

  • it okay if his voice craks it some times happens but if you holed a note for 60s your not going to last

  • You guys..Davey doesn't drink he's straightedge and he is very respectful of his body. And I personally like him with and without makeup. he's pretty damn hot both ways ;P

  • He can hit them, he just made a mistake.

    It happens.

  • maybe davey was drinking. booze dries out your throat and that could be what made him crack on those high notes you never know

  • Are you retarded?

  • I think he/she is..

  • @thenamless69 davey and the rest of afi are straight edge...

  • @thenamless69 wow...isn't Davey straight edge?

  • @KairiSoraRiku35 and VEGAN

  • @thenamless69 he is straight edge....he does not drink

  • @thenamless69 He's straight edge, remember? :)

  • deoxxxx pero cual es el stress , si tiene la voz diferente listo yap superenlo, ademas antes o despues sigue siendo lo maximo. DAVEY LO MAX. YEAHHH.

  • wow he looks so different ..His voice is not the same bacause maybe the age.

  • 2:35

    lol bad

  • 3:09 - 3:10 he sounds drunk

  • got give him props for trying, even before the operation that had to be hard to do

  • Look at the way he bombed ,god damn niceeeeeeeeeee

  • his voice is definetly stronger

    but he cant hit those highs

  • uhh.. Hopefully they'll do better this year.

  • I think the reason why he sounds different is because he said they has like 2 years without preforming live so....maybe.

  • Oh my god, facial hair. I have Declared September 29th the new Christmas. Lol at 0:20, FUCK YEAH!

  • so does that make me like the new jesus? cuz thats my birthday? SAWEET

  • i think davey is doing just fine i mean if he wants new hair then he can have it enev thow his voice is changed a lil i still love davey and afi WWOOOOT got tickets 4 when they come 2 buffalo ny

  • @ mrmctommy

    yes he does xD

  • Wow, havok looks much more manly with short hair

  • yea, but the devil lok will be sorely missed

  • glennofthunder, I agree.

    I just bought tickets to their show in Columbus, OH.

    Perhaps they are doing five quick shows in order to get their endurance back? LOL.

  • haha...I just bought tickets to the one in Cincinatti! I can't wait!!!

  • its tomorrow

    'cries'

    i cant go.

  • Davey has a great voice,, that liyyle blaqk audio experiment sure brought him a lot of trouble he has´t practiced in a long time plus i think he was a bit sick but im sure with a luttle practice hell be the same as before or even better Cheers AFI!!

  • Comment Fail.

  • i dont like the new hair cut davey im sorry to say

  • september 29 fuck yea!! about damn time lol

  • Did they play God Called In Sick Today?

    If not, im disappointed

  • its like an athlete coming back from a bad injury give him time his voice will be back...hopefully

  • they look so much older now

    their hair looks so different

  • He looks like Johnny Depp in this footage lol.

  • this is probably my least favorite afi song. it sounds so whiny and you can tell. all the other afi songs from kroq sounds great, but this requires him to be whiny

  • does anyone know when there cd come out

  • Comment removed

  • Where's it say that?

  • it comes out september 29th. watch my crash love video to find out more information on the album

  • was, because, you heard his voice now. it's not like before. But how i say it's great band, and we enjoy their music :)

  • he ws the best. wats is with his woice :S oh this song is very good . however i love AFI

  • was? are thye broken up or something?

  • He had a problem with it and needed surgery on it.

  • No he didn't get surgery.

  • @TheSecretNinja337 Sorry to burst your bubble but he did in fact get vocal surgery.

  • too bad. It sounded better before.

    But im sure crash love will still be great

  • Comment removed

  • HAHA his ouice at like 2:34 other than thatm,its an awesome performance!

  • My thing is that since they haven't been touring as much as they had before, even though they're in the studio, that his voice has been hurting a little bit. But he did a good job, like always =]

  • the truth is that daveys voice is just maturing he s in the process of rebuilding his voice

  • was that a dude in the beginning yelling "i love you davey". lol cause that dude sounded like a truck driver or something

  • hey jades bangs arent blond anymore!! ehh i should really care about daveys hair in this performance and plus WHATS WITH THE 5 O'CLOCK SHADOW MUSTACHE

  • anyway, afi roxs, dont watse ur time reading theshit we write lol

  • AFI FOREVER! XD

  • Ever thought Davey's busted his ass off for us? his Fans? he's doing it for us..hurting his voice..so he can put a show on for us..you know screaming damages the voice :( I think he's still good! i will always be his fan no matter what. Atleast he's trying his best for US..the LOYALS

  • He plays shows for us to BUY the tickets and mantain his socialite life. He makes records to make profit off them.

    He wants his fans to buy all AFI to make money.

    If it was just for the music, they wouldn't be on INTERSCOPE. lol

    If he screamed in a proper way, he wouldn't hurt his voice.

    I won't be their fan if they make bad music. Saying "omg i will always luv dem no matter wat" is plain stupid.

    Being a loyal fan does not mean I can't criticize what I don't like. Open your mind.

  • you know...both you and GuitarHaruXD are right...but i think the one with the open mind is GuitarHaru...

  • dude your a crazy maniac. relax.

  • what are the head phones that hunter and dave ware for?

  • oh sry guys but this is total wrong

  • Till the Day I Die, A FIRE INSIDE!!!

  • ok why the fuck is everyone being so negative

    afi is awesome live

    and LIVE SHOWS are not meant to sound like the CD or sound perfect.

    so get over it.

    AFI forever

  • They're not being negative.

    They're being realistic.

    If you really think this was an awesome performance, that's being mediocre.

    I invite you to watch the live videos on my channel, where you can see how GOOD they once were.

  • i didn't say this one was amazing and i have seen most of your videos.

    I just love AFI for everything they are and will become and have been.

  • You can't know if they will be awesome next time.

    Most people said DU was going to be awesome.

    It was FAIL.

    Capitalized for emphasis.

  • ok buddy ur FAIL lol but thats just my opinion.

    I like all their albums and that's just my opinion too.

  • WERE?!?! Lol they're still good! just a different style

  • they're still good? so how come Davey's voice started to die. After so many years of singing he could use a break instead of giving bad performances.

  • Ever thought Davey's busted his ass off for us? his Fans? he's doing it for us..hurting his voice..so he can put a show on for us..you know screaming damages the voice :( I think he's still good! i will always be his fan no matter what. Atleast he's trying his best for US..the LOYALS

  • I am a big afi fan, but DU was just plain mediocore, and thats rating it nicely.

  • so true ^^^^

  • His voice was VERY off. Still good but davie has done a LOT better.

  • hmm so hot...I love his jaw line

  • you people are so spoiled. your acting like this was a horrible, dreadful performance. your acting like singing a live show is so easy and the lead singer should be so ashamed. get over yourselves. this was a great show and he sang great. can you sing like that, live? exactly.

  • First of all, you're probably not a fan, because you wrote " lead singer." Second, we're allowed to write our opinions... This show was bad, Davey probably isn't ashamed, this isn't their only bad show...There's no excuse for a bad show.

  • no your wrong. stop being a complainer, a whiner. you need to accept that this was a good performance and stop being childish.

  • It wasn't! I'm stating my opinion! AFI is my favorite band, but this show was not good!

  • stop being negative.

  • honesty isn't negativity

  • you can be honest and be negative. your being negatively honest. so stop it, and start thinking positive about this performance because it was great.

  • Whatever, you thought it was great, I'm being honest and I thought it was bad.

  • Hey kid, I give the orders here in my video. DefBrif has the right to say whatever the fuck he wants. You can be more open minded. Do you want him to go "omg davi singed so cool in dis show"?

    His voice was a fucking shit in this show. Get over it.

  • Comparatively shit.

    Still a decent show.

  • Thank you, Pablo! I like your honesty!

  • first of all, just because you put up this video doesn't make you the boss. because i could talk to the youtube people and get you booted from this site, they are boss, not you. and secondly he sang great, your being just as negative as the other kid. once again, you young emo kids are so spoiled its not even funny. welcome to the real world where people show that there human and their voice breaks during a scream. get over it. and grow up.

  • Then why the hell did you put in the video description, "also, in this video davey shows off his vocal strength." If you thought he sang horrible, your a hypocrite and a liar. and youtube moderators will boot you.

  • yeah.. its prob his hair you know... throwing him off balance and stuff

  • danng.. daveys voice is getting messed up..

    i think (crazy idea) that this may be why they are inviting fans to come in and help sing on the album or ep or what ever. maybe?

  • woah, that was very intelligent comment.

  • He'll get better....it might not sound exactly the same, but he'll be fine.

  • i get so scared when ever i see this vid ..and daveys voice just goes blank like that...

  • how old is he now

  • he's 42 now.

  • he was born in 1975, so he is 34

  • I know, it seems the new fans can't do little research this days.

    By the way, he's 33. He was born in November.

  • my god davey you have to take more care of your voice please...i love you dave

    your........into me

  • that was slightly scary

  • I KNOW IM A FREAKY PERSON sorry if I freaked you out...wut can i say im only 12 ...

  • u made me lol, as long as you bring smiles to peoples faces and not frowns, your ace :P cheers :D

    AFI 4eva :D

  • thank u wut can i say i spend all day on the internet watching afi videos and wasting my time on my messenger (well watching afi videos is fun and i love watching videos buy i hate windows live messenger dont know why i even have one )anyway...thanks for your comment...and word LONG LIVE A FIRE INSIDE OR AS I SAY AWSOMENESS FOUND INSIDE!!!!!!!

  • It's sorta sad when I think that they've done this hundreds of times.

    But it never gets old to me.

    Always so good, even when they crack up, makes every time different and good.

  • wow i feel bad for davey ...his voice just cracked up ...but this show is still sorta good they usually sound lots better

  • why did davey suddenly changed from his emo haircut to psycho billy?

  • likeing the dance moves lol. its wierd wen the lead singer is only a singer cause he winds up having to dance and look hella wierd wen there are instrumentals. i guess its better than just standing there though

  • omg..wtf!

  • fucking sexy. im a guy and i would soo do stuff to davey .. i like vagina

  • wats wrong with the dancing davey ?? i mean u look like an idiot wen u did the move wen the song first began !!

  • Oh people. don't give excuses... they didn't have a good show, no excuses for that. and the 1 yr no show thing doesn't make sense... Five Flowers killed, and that was 2 years with no shows.

  • i knwo and i have no idea y this performance sucked they r usually great live and im one of their biggest fans but THIS SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I don't know either, this is the third year that they weren't good at this show.. ahah. well i thought days of the phoenix was done pretty well..

  • yeah so was miss murder and love is many a splendored thing... but thats about it :P

  • wow, didnt know that, well, i guess davey needs to get his voice together.

  • 2:00 / 4:16 way

  • in the interview before this show the band did say that they hadn't played a show in 1 year and 2 months. I'm sure that also had something to do with davey's voice cracking.

  • AWW i love howq he sets himself up at the beginning that was awesome :)

  • aww his voice is breaking ;(

  • I honestly think that Davey Havok is THE best dancer on the planet!!

    Seriously!

    And if it wasn't good enough with AFI, his Blaqk Audio dancing is absolutely amazing!!

    Yay!

    I hope he never stops dancing!

  • i love how he never apologizes for messing up or makes up any excuses

  • Poor Davey. D:

    But who can blame him after so long?

  • His voice should actually be better seeing as he has had a break.

  • He did have a surgery to remove a cyst after Sing the Sorrow, so ever since its not the same.

    And really, they've been a band for around 20 years, and a hardcore one at that, gotta hand it to him.

  • That comment is full of fail.

    He never had surgery. And the Head Like a Hole cover was AFTER that and his voice was perfect, like in the STS era, so his "new" voice is that way because he wants it instead of because he needs to sing that way.

    Do a little research before you make a fool out of yourself.

  • From what I hear he had a cyst removed.

    and that cover, yet awesome, is edited of course.

    In any case, I think afi is a great band, and I'm a huge fan of them.

    I'm not saying his new voice is bad, but his live voice obviously isn't as good as it used to be. IMO

  • He never had a cyst. He just hurt his vocal chords. End of story. He just had to rest.

    And of course it was edited just like all of the songs they've done.

  • Either way he's been playing for almost two decades, so I'd give him a break.

    "And the Head Like a Hole cover was AFTER that and his voice was perfect"

    Yes, edited that way.

    I think they used to be better live.

  • yea ive seen alot of performances where they have been great and awful. like at 2:34 in this video he has a terrible voice crack. its seems like his old songs are too out of his range now. like he always sings girls not grey in a lower octave than its supposed to be in cuz he cant sing it how it should. but i mean its just cuz of the two decades like u said. i mean it happens to every singer. and yes i heard the same thing about the cyst so i do believe ur correct. wikipedia that shit haha

  • I wish I could have seen this band during the STS era.

    My favorite album of all time.

    Hopefully the new one is better than DU

    and somehow as good as STS, but I doubt it

    STS was pure perfection.

  • Wow his voice cracked alot.

    I cant wait for there new album. Im probably gonna cry when i get it ill be so happy anyone know when it comes out?

  • Oh my god I love him :D

  • 2:34 - 2:37 O_O whoa hahahaha poor Davey yo !!

  • OMG i feel so bad for him, that must of sucked

  • give them a break this was their first show in 1.5 years

  • So what? In April 2006 they did the Five Flowers tour. They hadn't play a show for 2 years and they were flawless. What you said is not valid at all.

  • i watched an interview for this concert, davey himself said they havnt played a show such as this in 1 and a half years go watch it.

  • Your point being...?

    Didn't you read what I said? Here it is:

    In April 2006 they did the Five Flowers tour. They hadn't play a show for 2 years and they were flawless. What you said is not valid at all.

  • Haha, owned.

    Thanks for the vid btw

  • lol i think davey's still acting like his in blaqk audio!

  • afi is the best band!!!

  • i like the description in this one pablo. i think i heard he was sick at this show though (in his defense), much like the mexico show that i remember you laughing at.

    it is pretty funny though, but not as funny as the high note on girls not grey in mexico, hahaha.

  • I always get a big goofy smile on my face every time I hear this song

  • Aww, you guys are so mean!

    Sure, the show wasn't great, and yes, they did play (nearly) all singles, but what can you expect them to do? They haven't played a show in over a year, and it was really awesome of them to come out of the studio and play, knowing full well that they weren't a hundred percent. Plus, they looked like they enjoyed themselves, so that's all that matters, really.

    I think we could extend them a little grace, don't you?

  • This comment is ridiculous and I'm sick of hearing all the "they haven't played in 1 year" bullshit.

    I expect them to play their fans' favorite songs and not the posers' favorite songs.

    During the Five Flowers Tour, in April 2006, they had 2 years and a half without playing a single show. And that tour was fucking amazing.

  • It was awesome of them, but don't think they did it for charity. They obviously payed them a good ammount of money, so it's not like they did us a favor.

    They enjoyed themselves, but put out an average/bad show. It doesn't matter the quality of the show? wtf.

  • i would like to ask you on what you think of his new hair now it is short he seem a lot older i think

  • It's way, way better than the emo hairdo.

  • and if you can't take criticism, don't read the comments on my videos.

  • I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you, but you don't need to be so cruel to people who disagree with you. And yes, I do agree with you that it was a mediocre at best show, but they get enough criticism from haters and it's just hard to hear it from fans, so that's all that I meant by it. I'm really glad that you put these videos up, though, so thank you for doing that c:

  • Um, TheSecretNinja337, is the second "Your sins into me" left out because of Davey's inability to sing it? or does he just let the audience sing it? Just thought of it.

  • His voice cracked every single song. I am sure it's because of his inability to hit high notes properly nowadays.

    I don't know why people keep saying this show was great; Davey's voice was mediocre.

  • Thank you very much, I don't this this show was great either, it was ok . Only difference was Love is a Many.
