Are you going on vacation Axe?
Indeed. I fly out Monday morning for Tampa, and depart on Cruise to the Edge Tuesday
I've never heard of AFI.
Me neither.
Well they aren't metal or prog so it doesn't surprise me that they aren't well known on this forum. They were a punk/hardcore band and then turned into more of a rock band although I'm not totally sure of the type of genre they are now.
U2 have been the same 4 guys for 40 years.
That must be some kind of a record surely ?
Maybe?
The comment about 20 years being together was more so about because they changed their style almost every other album and also went from a band drawing a couple hundred a night to a few thousand pretty quickly and became an MTV hit for a short period of time including their concert dvd at the same venue as Iron Maiden's Live After Death. Going through all those changes sometimes band members go different ways so to me, I think it's great these guys stuck together and are continuing to evolve.
