Once in a while, alt-rock band AFI (otherwise known as A Fire Inside) would perform a cover song live at a random concert. Among them is what could possibly be their rarest song ever, having only been performed live at the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma, California on Dec. 29, 1993. Fans all over the internet have been searching for any traces of anyone who might have knowledge of where the song is right now. The song in question is "Ronnie Was a Rebel/Ronnie 2", originally by hardcore punk band Chaos UK. The track was also included on a bootleg tape under the name of System Failure Vol. 1, which contains many songs from an assortment of bands.

As of April 2015, there is no downloadable version of this song anywhere on the Internet, but multiple people have come forward to claim that they own the cassette with this song on it. There are also no traces of footage of the song being performed live from the Petaluma show.
