My guest on this week's Sewers of Paris podcast is Jon Ginoli, who started the band Pansy Division in the early 90s. Jon was responding to a lack of queer music in the punk scene and a lack of punk music in the queer scene, and with the help of his bandmates he was among the first to successfully marry those two separate worlds — first in little dive venues in San Francisco, and before long, opening for Green Day at Madison Square Garden. Pansy Division is still touring to this day — check out their website for upcoming tour dates, including what will be the band’s one thousandth concert.
