Freezing Hands

Woke up later than I had hoped today. From the moment I was awake, til the moment right now, I have had a truly splendid AFI day. The title of this is not so much a play off of new song, as much as it is a set feeling for the whole day.
Why?
Because today was the first real day of Autumn here. It was cool enough for jackets out during the day, and tonight it was actually cool enough to make my hands shiver in the cold. But it doesn't have to be cold at all to do that, I have terrible circulation you see.

Drove 40 minutes to Dothan to get my copy of Crash Love, on the drive there I shouted along with Black sails and the beginning of Sing the Sorrow. When I got to the mall, I went straight for what I was there for, Crash Love. I actually had a hard time finding it in Hot Topic, although it was right to the left of the CDs the whole time with it's own display.
The clerk that I see literally every time I go in there was quick to swing around the jewelry and show it to me. It's always nice to see her pretty face. She's also the only other DFer I know in my whole area anymore. It's a little weird, but I always sorta had a crush on her. haha

Got a shirt, the regular CD (because jewel cases last longer than cardboard) and a pin all for 21 bucks. Quite a deal if you ask me!

Drove home and jammed out to Crash Love. Ears were ringing when I got home.
You know that video Hunter did in the LP about tambourines? When I blasted the CD, you can hear tambourines on "It Was Mine" HAH! And you though it was a joke!





During the afternoon, I made some neat stuff for my blog and Myspace with the LP stuff we got last night. You can see all of that here [LINK]
And I had learned that my good DF buddy Alex was able to get into the Roxy, which was amazing for him. I wasn't quite so excited until I heard the music they played on KROQ. The boys were in prime form tonight from what I heard and they stupefied me with how great the music was. Davey's voice was strong and not as strained as it was in IHAV. Solid vocals, solid bass, drums, and some great change ups in guitar that really kept the songs fresh. SOLID EVERYTHING.
I can only imagine how amazing it would have been to be there. My heart could have very well exploded out my chest.

The album, is amazing, the art work is great, the boys live are amazing. I'm besides myself with crash love. Crash in the sense that I hope it lasts and runs until it breaks. Until every last bit of life is squeezed out of AFI. And I'll tell you something, I don't think that's going to happen any time soon. No sir.

I'd like to share a picture, though it's not the whole band, and I love every one of the boys, but this one is just a really good picture that Alex took at the Roxy tonight.


AFI, you still mystify and bedazzle me.

Goodnight!
