Really stoked to get the opportunity to sit down with Jon Ginoli to discuss his musical journey from his jangly power pop band The Outnumbered in Champaign, IL to his openly gay punk rock band Pansy Division in San Francisco. We talked about touring with Green Day, what Jon's musical future looks like and, of course, some of his favorite memories of Chicago.
