I am a long time TAB fan and am disappointed that I have not yet heard the band comment publicly on their home state's recent anti-LGBTQ laws. Many performers have spoken out publicly, or donated to LGBTQ charities to express their disfavor with the discriminatory state laws. I hope the brothers will soon do the same.

I know TAB often eschew direct statements on politics, but this is a human rights issue that effects us all and music has the power to change the world. I hope they will not remain silent for long and I believe the band's longstanding commitment to social justice, and to its LGBTQ fans will not be forgotten at this difficult time
