Gepubliceerd op 1 jun. 2015 Interview with Alt-J Drummer Thom Green, who talks about living with Alport Syndrome. This is part 1 of a 4-part series. Thom has a rare genetic disease called Alport Syndrome, which causes a decline in kidney function, hearing loss, and vision problems. He was on kidney dialysis for 4 years before receiving a kidney transplant. The interview took place at New York City's historic Madison Square Garden on March 30, 2015, only hours before Thom and his band Alt-J performed to a sold out crowd. Thom was interviewed by Kevin Schnurr, a 29-year-old Alport Syndrome patient and transplant recipient. Video editing: Kevin Schnurr/Chris Pak.
