Against Me! - "Baby, I'm An Anarchist"

March 11, 2007
The Orpheum Stage Door
Madison, WI

Please excuse poor quality. It's just nice to have videos from the show to remember.

Also, please excuse the fact that I didn't catch the entire thing. I decided in the middle that I wanted to record. Go figure.

yeh they sold out

they used to believe in their message until they said screw the old fans and abandoned their ideals. Still like they're old stuff but won't listen to any new songs

[andreatobrazil]

But have you listened? I mean, do you not listen because you don't like the new music or because you don't like the new attitude?

[andreatobrazil]

So everything before New Wave or Searching For A Former Clarity? Because honestly, that's pretty stupid to not even give the new stuff a chance because you don't like how they act.

[superbrandon]

.AGAINST ME ARE FUCKING SELLOUTS.

Anti-capitalists on fucking sire records???

Are you fucking kidding me.

don't give me bullshit like that they are just advancing in their career.

The went against all of their original ideas just for fucking money.

I'm no punk fucking elitist but fuck against me, fuck tom, and fuck sire records.

Baby Im on a subdivision of warner brothers.

They Make Me sick

[andreatobrazil]

OKAY, I KNOW. I know they're sellouts. For the most part, I still like their music. When we've met them, they've been nice dudes. Yes, it's ridiculous. Yes, it's going to their heads and their careers. But most of their music is still pretty good, and...well, at least we have that. But come on, make that comment on Punknews, not my video. I hadn't said a single thing, I just posted a clip from a show.

[silentfear03]

this was the best show of theirs ever

[andreatobrazil]

i thought it was incredible. much better than the first time i saw them.

[joemccorriston]

I hate it when people say bands sell out. It's like there are a set of rules in punk that bands aren't allowed to break unless the punk police set out on them. I thought the point of punk was that there were no rules? Pathetic. Against Me! ♥

[StJimmyRocks92]

I don't think that sold out. I think they just changed. That's just what I think when I hear "Teenage Anarchist," anyway.

[outstandingwarrents]

were not punishing them just stating that they were a band like no other who didnt give a fuck and then they jioned a new label which would have been find but the music has changed and is getting closer to the same pop punk shit you hear on the radio everyday

[drummergirl1015]

why do we "punish" artists for changing? maybe the direction they are going in now is the one they feel expresses them the best.

dont knock it til you try it, bro.

[tkorenstra]

dude, as you get older your view on the world changes. They may still believe in that stuff but maybe not as strong as they did then. tom gabel was still basicly a kid in 2003 and earlyer...

[valeriesgonnakickura]

mmmm sexy sexy men

[poopsikinz]

i wont listen to the new stuff because they put what they believed in for so long behind them, even if the new shits good. its not what they belive in. they were already very sucessful on fat wreck chords

[poopsikinz]

many of them own tv stations and decide what is news and what we see.

[talkfan]

have you checked out the Against Me! Kyte Channel yet? It has tons of exclusive content that they themselves put up offstage, backstage, and wherever else If you wanna see what these guys are up to all the time. myspace dot com slash againstmefanatics

[ninjapat]

id be careful...considering music corporations negative? they do nothing like those corporations that are part of the WTO. all music corporations do is help bands record and promote their music.
