Re: AFI: The Closing Night

Yes, Tim has already posted pictures from Saturday night’s AFI Closing Night party, and Adrienne has posted extensively on the Spree. But! My pictures are better. The House of Blues wasn’t that crowded, even though just about every media person in town that we know was there (David Ninh, Amy Vanderoff, Gary Cogill, Brendan Higgins), so Stephanie and I (along with Tim’s wife for a few songs) stood right in front of the stage and danced our hearts out all night long. Artist Rolondo Diaz was down in front, too, really getting down. It was my first time seeing the Spree perform, and, of course, I want to be one of the girls in the choir. Especially because if I were one of those girls, I would have a better chance of dating that curly-haired trumpet player, shown at left. If you want to find out how they opened the show and who got onstage, please jump.

		This big red fabric was stretched across the stage before the band came on.
		Tim (lead singer, not Rogers) cut a heart in the fabric.
		The first outfits.
		They changed into these robes for the encore.
		This guy got a hug.
		They let all the photographers on stage to take pics while they performed.
		Michael Caine got up there, too.
