@@johnzackarias11 Yeah lol it's pretty rough, and you can kind of understand why he struggled with vocal injuries later on. He strains himself so much, although it does sound very intense!
Look Davey Havoc is a phenomenal artist don’t get me wrong. But AFI’s first couple of albums literally sounded like every other punk band at the time. If I didn’t know any better I would never be able to be able to pin what band this is based on the vocals. He didn’t get his uniqueness until Black Sails in the Sunset.

Was only 12 riding BMX and this album was the reason I met the same friends I have to this very day. Wild. Still riding, still jamming some of the songs ❤
Jesus, this is making me feel old. I saw them at 924 Gilman.St. in Berkeley during this era. Unforgettable energy at that gig. This really is a time warp. Wow.
I'm so bummed. I lived in Brentwood during my junior year back in 98/99. My friend used to go to Gilman all the time, and I never went with her. Totally could have seen them in their prime.
Thanks for posting this man. Always liked their stuff from the 2000s. Was remembering this band this week and became curious of their older material and I stumbled upon your vid. Great footage and quality must’ve been quite the experience actually being there and living in that moment.
I’m not into their more recent work, but after seeing this I appreciate their desire to just want to do something different as time went on. At the same time they don’t neglect their early material as others may do once they assume their new identity. “They” just being Davey and Adam I suppose 😂
97.... I got heavily in to the band shortly after that.... and kicked myself ever since for missing this show. they wouldnt come back to Chicago until 2002 delayed by 911
in my world, this was AFI's heyday. shows were in the $6-10 range, nobody knew who they were, raw punk shit, and you can get up close and listen to and feel the music with 'like-minded fans'. I've never seen them in Chicago, all shows I went to were all over the Bay Area, and last time I saw them was in '99 :(
The entire feeling of my youth embodied in one comment! I was at Fireside weekly. Multiple times a week. It was usually 5 bucks to get in. The place smelled like old bowling shoes and cigarettes, but it was home! This was one of the best shows I've ever seen to this day!
@@deannadale8287 For me I was The Red Room, vets hall (first floor and basement), palookaville. all 3 were/are in Santa Cruz, and lastly 924 Gilman. Those were the good old days. now I'm in my 40s and old haha.

This is a national treasure and should be archived for later generations.
It will be, kids… this is East Bay Hardcore
Fuck those later generations. The world is lost. All the punk and hc lyrics from the 80s and 90s have come true ;)
Exactly.
Davey has always had heart. Not just in performing. But creating works of art. He’s our modern day Poe in my opinion
Davey sounds so good here, such a unique voice, young bands in the scene today lack unique vocalists like this.
If that is your opinion, I would say you probably haven't done your research

I love how you can hear how well he can sing even when he's screaming. What a gem this is
What a relic. Fortunate to have people in this world who recorded shows like this.

I added the setlist to the description and gave you credit
Thanks there may be one more song at the end, but it’s hard to tell with the cuts.
I can still smell that place. There's nothing as iconic as The Bowl's ceiling.
The quality for the era is absolutely fucking amazing! Well done whoever!!
Thanks!
This is crazy dude! AFI at Fireside. I wish I could’ve been there
Was only 12 riding BMX and this album was the reason I met the same friends I have to this very day. Wild. Still riding, still jamming some of the songs ❤
Those were the days!
Holy fuck, this is the best AFI I have ever seen!!! I’ve seen them 11 times, but nothing close to this.... shit
Man i miss old AFI

A young Geoff Kresge in his prime…legendary!
2022?New year, I'm watching Afi!early years,whos with me?
This is more valuable than anything
would kill to go back and be here!
Same.
Should we kill together in order to spare a life?
How I wish time travel was real so I can attend this!!! 😭😭😭😭
When AFI was great
Goddamn.
Davey sounds album accurate AND gives 1000% despite the church prefab looking venue.
Fucking legend.
the fireside bowl was an extremely important punk venue in the 90s
💯
@@kylec5429 history has little context for us who weren't there, I meant no disrespect
@@sc885 I went to hundreds of shows there. Huge part of my life. I took no disrespect from your commen. It was a shithole, but an awesome one! :)
It was a bowling alley that also had punk shows
FINALLY!!!!! old AFI!!!!!!! this is what I remember them being like and what I loooooved!!! Yeaaaaaah!!!! ❤
I would trade any show I’ve been to for being at this show. Fuck it, I’d trade every show I’ve ever been to for being at this show.
The original members were very good. Very good.
This is amazing!!!
Vedo per la prima volta questo video! Credo sia il live degli AFI più bello che ci sia sul tubo ❤️
It's so fucking awesome that I can't put it into words, thank you!

You're welcome. It was a time that I appreciate more the older I get.
@@xrsidex totally. Just seeing that wall/ceiling combo in this video brings back so many awesome memories.
You can actually hear the bass and guitars
Fckng amazing
One word…GOLD!!!
This pretty hype. Makes me want to be a 90s kid again.
Я обожаю эту группу, мой любимый период творчества банды. Божественно. Дэйви такой душка))

THANK YOU! As someone who made it to a lot of shows at the Fireside in the 90s, this is a real treat.
This is amazing
Great❤
Dude ..... This sounds better than any of the other live recordings. Mom's basement venue confirmed best audio acoustics
This is a bowling alley.
f*ckin' sick!! now that's AFI raw!! thanks for postin' man. this is so awesome to see them do these songs!
God I’m fucking old. Thanks for this footage
you're welcome!
Holy shit, this is when they were in the skater punk scene. Please let this stay up forever
The better version of AFI
I want to sop this video up with a biscuit. Whoever this "Ricardo" is certainly is a supreme talent.
Simply thank you
This is absolutely amazing!!!
That ceiling is so punk rock.
ASKING FOR IT, real ones know !!
The fireside bowl was an acquired taste for some, home for others...and a place where the arcade games smelled like piss for everyone else.
Man, what a throw back!!!! This is awesome , thanks for uploading
This is the real A Fire Inside. I love some of the new shit but nothing beats the early AFI.
Same some new shit is good but this, THIS!
this band is called asking for it - they changed their name to a fire inside when jade joined
The cuts were worth to capture the faces of the crowd. Even then, Davey was a captivating showman.
30 years strong!
Wow, these guys were punk as fuck! I had no idea
El mejor a fire inside , sin ninguna duda!! Cuanto extraño esta banda 😢 sonido perfecto para esos años
wow, thanks for posting this!!

“They” just being Davey and Adam I suppose 😂
There was a AFI show at Fireside Bowl on August 27th 1996 on the Very Proud of Ya Tour
Is this not it?
Yeah it’s that date.
this is beautyful
Oh SHIT you DID post everything! Thanks guy! You're a damn champ!
Sweet jesus! I miss these guys.
they exploded at he who laughs last, you could see it instantly change
holy shit they ripped back then
97.... I got heavily in to the band shortly after that.... and kicked myself ever since for missing this show. they wouldnt come back to Chicago until 2002 delayed by 911
There's a video on here of them playing Fireside Bowl again in '99
Gold
Yeah AFI actually delivers in concert. Not a fake band by any means.
Amazing.
Wow, A great set, album, and performance.
Thanks for sharing this!
you're welcome!
There are not that many bands who changed their musical style so often and almost nailed it every time.
Amazing
Epic performance!! 💥
even on an old recording with poor audio you can hear the power behind those vocals.
holy fuckin shit balls what a performance . when a band has IT they fucking have it!!!
Thank you for this
you're welcome
Sounds just like the album!!
BRUTAL ❤
I miss this AFI
😍😍😍

Looks like I'm your 100th subscriber!
I'm freaking obsessed with AFI and Dave's other bands!

This shit fucking jams hard! Old AFI where you at.
Unfortunately they "grew up"
love it
Holy shit! I remember this show!!!!! Wooowwwww!!!!
I was at this show.
RIP Fireside
they were called asking for it back then
This is so fucking amazing 😭
Crowd is REALLY into it haha
So much angst lol so good
So fuckin dope. Miss this AFI
Not sure if Paul Miner was in the band at this point, but went to HS with him and Jim, in fact played ice hockey with them
Davey as a blonde...and if I'm not mistaken..that an adidas shirt
The 90’s hardcore starter kit
Hell yeaaaa !!
