The Phoenix Theater

PETALUMA, CA – AFI will play the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma, CA on Friday, January 15, 2010. The show will be a homecoming for AFI, a band formed in Ukiah that played many of their early shows the Phoenix.

AFI / CRASH LOVE
Crash Love, AFI's eighth full length studio album, due out September 29 on DGC/Interscope, is inde...ed informed not only by the ever-evolving chemistry between the musicians in the band but also by the members' personal lives and perhaps most of all by the always intense relationship between AFI and its fans.

The latter has intensified considerably over the most recent of AFI's 18 years as a band, with 2006's decemberunderground entering the chart at #1 with first week sales of nearly 200,000 and subsequent sold out shows at the Long Beach Arena and Bill Graham Civic as well as appearances on Saturday Night Live and at Live Earth--not to mention 2003's Sing The Sorrow going platinum. Not bad for four kids from Ukiah, California who formed a rudimentary punk band in 1991 with aspirations of playing in the SF Bay Area and possibly releasing a few singles and an LP or two.

HISTORY AT THE PHOENIX
AFI last played the Phoenix as part of a two night sold-out engagement in June 2002. The band has played the venue regularly since their inception. The song “Days of the Phoenix”, off their fifth studio album The Art of Drowning, is a reference to the Phoenix Theater.
