"The street heats the urgency of now/As you see, there's no one around..."

This week's latest and greatest...
"AFI have shown here they are not slowing down, just getting better with age."
"The high octane energy from the band continued throughout the entire set; Havok jumping onto the foldback speaker at any given moment to incite the crowd with call and responses."
"Most people check out of music as they get older - but there are some lifers out there - I've met people who are actually bringing their grandchildren to our shows."
Giddy up!
