      @@sebastiansiemaszko1976i’m going to assume you sincerely don’t know so Tom Gabel who you see when this performance aired has now transitioned and goes by Laura Jane Grace. highly recommend the book “Tranny” if you’re interested in the story about it.

      The lead singer is Laura Jane Grace. White Crosses was the album she made right before she came out as trans. Tons of previous Against Me! songs have veiled references to her internal struggle with gender dysphoria.

      Eh. George is definitely better than Warren (plus a light year), but Atom is the absolute best drummer they’ve had.
      The White Crosses album though, I’d agree. It’s my favorite.
