Regram via @afinewshq. This was taken at ABC NO RIO in NYC, Summer of 1995 during the first tour for ATASF. Photo by Steve Z, who was out t-shirt guy on the tour. If my memory serves me correctly, Steve also coined the term "No Dave Party" on this tour. It was on this tour that we met and became good friends with the guys in Heckle (as seen on the matching tees). When we got back to the East Bay at the end of the tour (the last week of which had to be cancelled because of so many shows being called off for various reasons) we convinced Wingnut Records to sign Heckle for an album and agreed to a split 7" release with them to promote their upcoming album if the deal went through. The label used this photo, without our consent, as a publicity photo for us based solely on the fact that the Heckle name was prominently displayed on our shirts. We demanded that all copies be destroyed, thus making the photo extremely rare. #AFI #AskingForIt #AFireInside #EastBayHardcore #EBHC #UkiahPunk #KeyLimePieRecords #WedgeRecords #WingnutRecords #CollectEmAll

Repost of this photo of one of the basses I used in the '90s on most of the AFI records, including Dork, Fly In The Ointment and Answer That And Stay Fashionable. I've had a few people asking about this one. The one pictured is actually the second one of its kind, and was used on Very Proud Of Ya. Same model as the other one, but this one had an active preamp/booster inside. Matt Freeman used to give me a hard time about these basses, but all in good-natured fun. They were set up with really low action and fitted with guitar pickups, rather than bass pickups, both of which gave them a pretty distinctive sound and a different tonality than other basses. Both of them are in a state of being unusable because I played them with a heavy hand and the bridges are cross-threaded and therefor they can't be intonated or tuned unless the bridge units are replaced. #AFI #AskingForIt #AFireInside #EastBayHardcore #EBHC #UkiahPunk #KeyLimePieRecords #WedgeRecords #WingnutRecords #NitroRecords #CollectEmAll

I'm excited to announce the re-release of Eddie Picnic's All Wet! Pre-orders open on Saturday, October 31st exclusively through AtomAgeIndustries.com who will be handling the order fulfillment on behalf of Key Lime Pie. This is the third pressing of the Eddie Picnic's All Wet 7", technically, as it is being pressed using the original plates and stampers from 1994. The first 333 copies of this pressing will be issued on colored vinyl. #AFI #AskingForIt #AFireInside #EastBayHardcore #EBHC #UkiahPunk #KeyLimePieRecords #CollectEmAll

True story. It's funny how some people have recollections of facts that others do not. I wrote this song in early-1994 and although I do remember playing it only once, I remembered it being at 924 Gilman St. and not the party that DH mentions. Did we play it twice? Maybe. I guess we'll need a DeLorean to find out the whole story behind the obscure track, Flux Capacitor! #AFI #AskingForIt #AFireInside #EastBayHardcore #EBHC #UkiahPunk #KeyLimePieRecords #WedgeRecords #CollectEmAll
