GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- During a rendition of the song "Pretty Girls (The Mover)" at the Orbit Room on Saturday night, Against Me! singer Laura Jane Grace sang the words "Sometimes at night, I pray to wake a different person in a different place."

But given the warm energy of the crowd and the 10,000-watt smile Grace beamed throughout the 75-minute set, it seemed clear that she didn't want to be anywhere — or anyone — else.
