Tonight I saw Against Me! play at a smaller venue called the Metro here in Chicago. It was an all-acoustic set. Against Me! is and has been my favorite band for a while. They played an acoustic set benefiting the Harvest of Hope Foundation.
They pretty much fucked their own new album up the ass. A lot of the set was just Tom or Tom accompanied only by Andrew. Furthermore, the new shit banner that they've been using since "New Wave" came out was not let down for this show.
They performed a lot of their old songs including this song, "Tonight We're Gonna Give It 35%".
The part of this song where Tom says:
"And can you live with what you know about yourself, when you're all alone, behind closed doors? The things we never said but we always knew were right there. It's got me on my knees in a bathroom, praying to a god that I
don't even believe in, "Dear Jesus... are you listening?" was nothing short of motherfucking incredible. Here I was, getting beaten the fuck up, pushed, punched and kicked from every direction with a thousand other people screaming at the top of their lungs and I hadn't ever felt better.
If you don't get this yet,
"T.W.G.G.I. 35%" is my favorite song by AM!
