Review and photo by Elena NiemanA modest but enthusiastic crowd gathered at the Orbit Room June 3 for AFI, (A Fire Inside), a West Coast based band that normally does not play shows in the Midwest unless it’s on Warped Tour.
The band’s set list included a well balanced mix of old and new tunes, covering albums The Art of Drowning, Sing the Sorrow, Decemberunderground, and its newest album, Crash Love.
Lead singer, Davey Havok, was makeup-free. He and the other members of AFI were all energetic performers. Havok’s vocals were strong; his body and hand gestures to the lyrics and the expressions on his face conveyed the emotion of each song strongly.
Onstage, there was a flurry of actions: running, jumping, and spinning taking place almost every song while fans were singing and yelling with Davey, putting as much of themselves into the music as the band was.
