An excellent cover of David Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust" by AFI. One of the best performances that day, IMO...:thumbsup:

1. Who is AFI?

I found that very underwhelming.

2. AFI's a band that's been around for 10 years...

Sorry you didn't like it - I thought it was great!

8. You may know their single

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AFI_%28band%29

They had a hit song called "Miss Murder". Look it up on youtube for a video.

6. Lifelong Bowie fan, here -- anything that introduces Ziggy and Bowie

to new audiences is all right by me. I'm guessing that band and the song would sound be a much better experience after a bunch of shots in a seedy dump where people piss at the stage and the performers.
