But club owner Tom Anderson on Friday canceled the performance, saying that the outside promoter who booked the band had not informed him that it included a transgender front-person.
Anderson said he had planned to let the concert proceed, but then received word that transgender advocates planned to picket the event and crash the concert.

Read the comments accompanying the article. They are very mean spirited. Yes, there are still millions willing to have fun at someone elses expense.
It's really sad.
