    Well, our long journey through the ins and outs of the band AFI is nearing an end. Last night Jeff Cork and I finally saw the band perform live at 1st Avenue in Minneapolis and we recorded a red hot episode immediately after the show. The show was fantastic, and Jeff Cork has now seen the face of God: AFI live. This isn't necessarily the end of the road for this podcast, but it might be a little while before we return with a new episode. Also, the setlist above was posted on the wonderful AFI News HQ Twitter feed.
