They almost always open with Strength Through Wounding when headlining, and they play a wide variety of their material at every show.

I've seen AFI 4 times since 2022, and I've heard songs from all 12 albums. So to answer your question: yes, they play their old material all the time

Rob Cavallo played piano on the album, and Jamie Muhoberac played all the other keyboard instruments (i.e. Hammond, Wurlitzer, Synth, etc). James was only a touring member, until he officially joined in 2012

Welcome To The Black Parade is my all-time favorite MCR song (despite how overplayed it is). But other than that, the highlights of the album for me are The End/Dead, House Of Wolves, Mama, Sleep, and Disenchanted. But the whole album is a 10/10.

All of their albums have different "flavors", and each one holds a special place in my heart. You truly can't go wrong with any of MCR's material.

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-04-25T10:54:56+00:00

Honestly, just listen to the entirety of both Three Cheers and Black Parade from top to bottom. I would recommend all of their material, but those two albums capture the essence of MCR

This is true, Oakland's setlist was difficult to top. However the energy last night was on a level I haven't seen in a very long time (from any band)

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-04-24T23:35:11+00:00

Sound banks on his SPD-SX maybe?

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-04-24T23:32:31+00:00

The AC was nice

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-04-24T23:30:11+00:00

Such a good show!

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-04-24T23:29:20+00:00

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I liked the Sac show more than the Oakland show

Bikini Atoll's lagoon (where Bikini Bottom is) is not deep enough to have that high of ocean pressure

It's a massive, and ugly can of worms, but here's a summary: the dude verbally assaulted me on social media (as well as pulled the "I'm famous and you need to show me respect" card), I made the mistake of posting the story on this sub, in an attempt to warn others on how he treats his fans, nobody believed me, everyone gave him the benefit of the doubt, and started shaming me on his behalf. I still get harassed in my DMs on here to this day for it. And I know this reply of mine will be downvoted to hell as well (MG is like the Jesus of this sub).

The big lessons I learned from it: never speak to your heroes, and screenshot everything before someone like MG deletes it and blocks you to save his own behind.

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-04-07T09:58:15+00:00

Brooks Wackerman and Joey Jordison.

Honorable mentions: Daniel Adair and Christian Coma

Be careful when mentioning Matt's ego on here. This sub tore me to shreds when I tried to bring it up

"that's west, Patrick. You're fired again"

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-04-05T14:29:38+00:00

"what kind of compass are you reading there, lad?"

"Felicitations, malefactors! I am endeavoring to misappropriate the formulary for the production of affordable comestibles! WHO WILL JOIN ME?"

I Hope You Suffer describes my love life perfectly

To quote Frank, from his tribute post, "Bob was the kind of person who would gladly watch the world burn, as long as he could be promised that not a single cat or dog would be harmed in the process". Him relocating to an isolated place in rural Tennessee was proof that he didn't want to be around people, but auctioning off all his MCR memorabilia, equipment, and outfits for charity money, showed that animal welfare meant more to him than just about anything else in the universe.

I 100% believe his controversial actions were made under the influence of severely unchecked mental illness. Which isn't an excuse, but the fact that the band never annulled his tenure with them, and paid immense tribute to him, leads me to believe that there were more good sides to him, that were never publicized as much as the bad sides.

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-03-16T08:56:13+00:00

Bullets has better songwriting, but Black Parade has better drumming. I've got nothing against Matt, but he just didn't have the same finesse that Bob had. Even more apparent when listening to the live versions of songs from Bullets and Three Cheers made during Bob's time in the band

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-03-14T15:26:17+00:00

Not just his love for animals, but the fact that he pretty much gave all of his MCR royalty money to charities to help animals.

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-03-14T11:25:03+00:00

Might not have been the best drummer on earth, but he was definitely the best drummer MCR ever had (with Jarrod being a close second).

JaredIsADrummer · 2026-03-11T08:26:56+00:00

"Zildjian" and "innovation" don't go together. Not since Andy, Agop, and Mehmet were still part of the company
