@Stephen Spinato What about the following line "And one night could last forever, And if you asked her she'd never let go, and you'd stay forever"? Idk, the former interpretation could be correct.
"And I know they're going to laugh at us when they see us out together holding hands like this" is about Laura's relationship with what she calls "her" in her book--the girl/woman she always wanted to be but hid from the rest of the world.
Thanks for posting this!!!! I have listened to the older albums probably a million times and AM is such a huge part of my life’s sound track as a youth. I was a little afraid to listen or go to a concert after we met Laura Jane. I was thinking she would soften her voice.... I don’t know if anyone else felt the same way. But my God!!!! This is amazing and still the same band I have loved for all these years. They will be in my town this Friday... I’m going because of this! Seriously the first time I listened to them since the transition....Thank you thank you!!! I am so stoked..... and I’m bringing my 12 year old son!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

@@CriticsConfession You know exactly what they meant. Why respond to somebody opening up about something so traumatic to them in the way that you have, instead of so bluntly?
@@Azzamanify And what they meant is still misconceiving and hurtful to trans people. A white person could say "I wanted to kill myself one time" and then use the n word in the same sentence and I'd still tell them not to say that word.
@@craftingweirdo6498 What I said is a commonly except concept within the LGBT community, you as an individual may be fine with it but many others are not, and it should not be assumed to be okay ever.
It's interesting to notice how often Laura would write lyrics using the pronoun "she" prior to coming out. I wonder how often she was talking about herself.
Laura has been coming out for a long time. I remember the mentions of 'dressing up as a woman' on Searching For a Former Clarity, to say nothing of The Ocean. I'm sure there are earlier references too. It's honestly so obvious I'm embarrassed to not have noticed for as long as I had
I revisited disco before the breakdown and realized she was basically screaming for help then. Pretty heartbreaking because that was their very early stuff.
@Mercury Rose Yeah he had the stage presence but Andrew had that talent and that's why they brought him back into the band. Against Me realized that Andrew was just a far better musician and nowadays he has a lot more energy
@@thecluckingassassin Lauras life is lauras life. I do miss these songs sung this way but I would never value a song over someones choices in life to be who they are and to live to their fullest.
I heard Laura was considering breaking up the band after this show, which would've been a shame, but this would have been a fantastic last show, going out with a bang for sure.
waaaaaaaaaaait I bet she's talking about the way those people threw bricks at the starbucks when trump won, like it's a weird coincidence that the thing in the song happened. I bet. Not sure.

Atom Willard is the kind of drummer that you need for your live performance. Wow
Agree. Find some of the Jay Weinberg shows as well. Guy played so hard!
@@timoday7194 I can't find any, I've been looking all over
@@erictankeastburn6291 they are few and far between. czcams.com/video/lGHUKnIYUVY/video.html not a great one, but he is there
not quite my tempo
@@skrotomon are you rushing, or are you dragging?
"When you sleep, she's standing there with open arms" - I keep finding old AM! lyrics that I realize aren't about what you assume they're about. Damn.
Can you please explain?
@@chrisw3147 "She" is Laura.

I lost track of Against Me! For a long while. Hearing pints of Guinness hit me in the heart the same way more than two decades later. Wonderful
did you get surprise by the singer?

Insane these songs crushed me before some of the front row was born. And I don't doubt they know the words as well as me.
42:09 - camera zooms at the crowd. Almost everyone is full of emotions. Amazing album: Reinventing Axl Rose.
I just scrolled to comments after seeing that exact moment
Those drums sound amazing
The horn player is crushing it!!!!
It's amazing how great they sound live, it's like listening to the albums
yes, unreal
Thank you for capturing this performance!
The crowd is having the time of their life, awesome show!
Cheers against me! Reinventing axle rose changed my life THANK YOU!!
Damn, I'm sad I didn't get to see this one live. Against Me! is my favourite live band ever, and these are some of my favourite songs of all time.
me too :(
Fuck I wish I could've seen this live. It's been since around the time Reinventing came out that I got to hear so many of the songs from it live
Holy moly I needed this today ❤️
Im watching this at 5 am after the longest day ever and I wanna get up and dance.
The fucking energy of this band is insane

Thanks!
I wish I had gone to FEST and not just PreFest! Thanks for posting!
Disco Before The Breakdown saved my fucking life. There's something so fulfilling about seeing Laura perform the song instead of Tom
There never was a Tom, only Laura. She's only ever been Laura.

@@mentalmelon3338 Sorry, I think you made a mistake. Your comment should say “I’m a transphobic asshole”, if I’m not mistaken.

@@mentalmelon3338 mental delusions people prop up
The bassist loves it
he must be a seriously fit dude haha
To be honest I hated this bassist, I'm so happy they have the original back
@@erictankeastburn6291 100% drew is the man
woah but whos the saxophonist, I love what she's adding to the music
That's Jessica Mills I believe. First sax player for Less Than Jake
@@nealwesco7465 Thought it was Lorraine Muller, from The Kingpins
@@ivanncharron5342 I don't think Lorraine has the sleeve on her right arm and I know Jessica has the same kind of tattoo on hers.
Europe tour... please :(
Man, I would have had so much fun at that concert :(
thanks for sharing this. Also I miss Warren.
@Mercury Rose Yeah he had the stage presence but Andrew had that talent and that's why they brought him back into the band. Against Me realized that Andrew was just a far better musician and nowadays he has a lot more energy

@@oneidawolf776, don't call the disease a choice.
I would kill to see Disco Before the Breakdown with a sax player. God damn.
Sink, Florida, Sink is my favorite song
so gooddddddd
atom & Inge makes the world Go round ✊👊
Missing them 😭😭 anyone else bought tickets for this spring but rona ruined it 😭😭
Yep...
I'm still not over it...
It pisses me off so much - was so stoked to them and baroness with some friends
Hopefully that tour still happens
@@blackcrowes92 i hope so too!!
J-just... Just amazing!!!
:0
love it
Legends! Saw them at the Ritz in Tampa and it was 1 part chaos, 1 part mayhem and the rest pure unadulterated joy \m/
nice venue, I want to play there!
One of my favorite bands. Against me and alkaline trio and the menzingers. I have a big alkaline trio tattoo on my arm.
Kick ass band
Atom And Inge 🤘
I heard Laura was considering breaking up the band after this show, which would've been a shame, but this would have been a fantastic last show, going out with a bang for sure.
Unfortunately, I think NOW they're done.
I really hope not, but... it's been over 3 years...
38:18 starts reinventing axel rose set
You know what... I hate to break it to the guy who wrote the description but Reinventing Axl Rose didn't come out in 2016 😬
Hahaha. Thanks for catching that typo.
That. Is. Awesome.
It would be so rad if there were time stamps.... Who wants an e-cookie???
Just another reminder that Against Me! always fucking rips.
it was so funny when the sax women was plying air guitar
Pretty powerful playing. Wish I could understand the lyrics.
jessica from LTJ?
Yup. =]
new chic singer. quite good!
bruh. Is this meant to be funny or what?
@@d1e1c0k2 Not everybody knows the band history, but especially in this case ...
I know right!? She sounds just like Tom! RIP Tom
No one died ya fucking pancake
@@LonelyPanda18420 It was a joke. Deadname and all that, get it
feeling bad for the right dude not on meth, no idea whats left of against me on the other side - big pharma knows i guess :D
also, DM loves rhyker
also enjoyed the whole hour, its insane how good they were
The bassist is so offbeat with the way they are moving. I can’t stop watching 🥴😂
01:00:44 - What was bananas?
a few lyrics in the song I think she dos'nt believe anymore
waaaaaaaaaaait
I bet she's talking about the way those people threw bricks at the starbucks when trump won, like it's a weird coincidence that the thing in the song happened. I bet. Not sure.
There was a crowd surfer in a banana suit. I've watched this 10+ times and I just now noticed.
The songs are not from the album
