Beautiful tone and sensitivity in the vocal here. Is this open mic karaoke or something?

Tom Gabel is the lead singer of "Against Me!", and this one of the stops on his solo tour. The crowd sang along the most when he did one of the older AM! songs, since they knew that better than his new solo stuff.

The other "assholes" are what makes these concert videos give me chills. The beauty of unity behind anything, even a song is just too much for me.

Im really glad tom went on this tour, and we are blessed with awesome videos such as this.

Thanx for taping!

I've been to more AM! shows than you-I'll guarantee you that. I was at CB's when they played one of the final shows there-and I started the crowd to sing the chorus to We Laugh at Danger one last time even after the song was finished. There's nothing wrong with singing along when it's loud and passionate and plugged in. However, when you're seeing something personal and unplugged, I sure don't wanna hear Johnny Outtakey singing along to anything. I wanna hear whoever it is I paid to hear.

people who talk about the downside of singing along have either never been to a show, or never played one themselves where the crowd is singing along. it is the single best experience in the world knowing this song has touched those people enough for them to learn what you've wrote and its invited by every sensible and non douchey musician in the world

chills...

@haxormax your the asshole

[pinhead739]

@Marc2511 If you knew anything about bands than you would know Tom loves to hear others sing.

[allogistic]

It's funny someone in the crowd always thinks they can out sing the band...seriously who are you tryin to impress let tom sing the damn song

[Marc2511]

No its true-ok I get singing along at an Against Me! show, but this is ridiculous. Why ruin something so good, so heartfelt? You wanna sing along? Go home, put it on your cd player and crack open a beer. Invite some friends over for a beer and sing your hearts out. But christ, pay attention, the man is pouring his heart out on a guitar, and he sounds 10,000 times better than any person(s) in the audience acting like db's.

[JimNightshade831]

have you ever been to a show in your life??? The whole point of it is to have fun and to be able to sing along with the songs you always listen too. Not to make everything perfect for some recording, if you want the recording go listen to the studio song.
