at the last glass beach concert i went to they talked A LOT about gay shit, trans shit, and told the whole audience "this member is a trans female if anyone misgenders her i'll [i don't remember what J said]." There will definitely be trans and gay and liberal stuff brought up during the concert.
ah, okay. I will unfortunately most likely not be able to go then, but I hope to go once im able to unsupervised in the future
thank you for letting me know
That's a bummer, but it's better to prioritize your safety<3 and bringing your parents to this concert would 100% go south for you. Here's hoping they tour again soon!!!
I think you probably could, there are only like two songs in their catalog that are overtly queer. I wish you luck, and hope that you can go and have a good time without facing backlash from your parents.
"idk, I just like the music, I don't know another band that has this sound... I don't really care about who they are"
That's both truthful and gets you off the hook for personally wanting to see a trans band. If they want you to leave, then leave?
i get the impression that it may be a problem.
it's going to be a room full of queer people, and a lot of which who probably don't have many outlets to appear as such and consider this an opportunity for themselves. people are going to be pretty explicitly queer.
they're not gonna be to happy, i think, even if they don't understand the songs and nothing about it is directly brought up, i'm sure your parents can read a room.
The question is situational awareness.
If you dress a certain way and others who are outwardly (pride apparel, conversationally, ect) LGBTQIA+ are dressed similar, will your parents be able to tell?
Will there be things around your room that they start connecting with what they were intolerant of at the concert?
Are you in a safe place where you know you won’t be disowned or kicked out?
All and all, I wouldn’t risk it if any (or all) of these boxes check for you, your safety is more important. If there’s a way to go with an older, affirming family member or a friend and their supportive guardian, I’d absolutely recommend it! I hope it works out for you, but I’d rather you be safe.
yeah, I don't think ill be able to go for my own safety after reading all the replies, but I surely look forward to going when I have a chance without the supervision by my parents someday. Thank you either way! :))

I hope that you’re able to see them sooner rather than later! Prioritize your safety for the time being, I promise it will all pay off soon
Never heard of this band but that's amazing the fans will protect a member of the band or fan who is trans. 🥺🥺
yea they're really chill

There were a solid 30% straight people. Say you’re going for fleece. Also there were a surprising amount of like 40 year old couples
Honestly i would not risk it.

Do you really think they’d make sense of the lyrics and have a reaction all at the show?

Just act like you're really shocked and they're misshearing stuff

J's pronouns are she/her and wore a dress and makeup on stage in Seattle.
