AFI was on hand at the MTV Movie Awards on Saturday, June 3. No, vocalist Davey Havoc wasn’t nominated for his role as a hairdresser in the animated movie Live Freaky, Die Freaky. The band was there to provide entertainment as a musical guest for the awards and to promote their forthcoming album.

Havoc told us on the red carpet, what the band will be doing.

“We’re playing ‘Miss Murder’ tonight the first single off our new record, which comes out on Tuesday.”

Havoc was then asked about Saturday being the first time the band has been to the movie awards.

“At the movie awards? Yes, but we were at the VMAs before. This is our first time being a part of the movie awards, which is real exciting for us to be able to cross into that realm, into that world being a rock band invited to the movie awards. It’s an honor…. It’s very exciting to be here. it’s a great environment. It’s a great opportunity. We’ve been watching MTV since we’ve been growing up, and we’re all huge, huge fans of film so to be here in this environment is great.”

AFI’s new album Decemberunderground hits stores on Tuesday, and the single “Miss Murder” has already skyrocketed into the top 10 on the Alternative rock chart.
