As the uploader of this video I find this interview very good. Watt talks about the Minutemen, who I didn't know much about at the time! Yes he's proud of to be D Boons friend, he's humble, approachable which I found out a few times a few years later! listeners and gig goers is a better term than referring to yr audience as fans! now that made a big impression on the me, and the DIY ethic! I was a little too young for Punk Rock but inspired to start yr own band!
@guillaumedemers47112 жыл бұрын
Minutemen changed my outlook on rock music 10 years ago and Iwas so late to the party this band is underated even in their DIY sphere and its kind of a shame - best 3 pieces musicians I ever had the chance to dig into and Im a nervana fan

Nice to hear the some younger folks are still discovering and appreciating their work. I was one of the lucky ones who saw firehose live and met Mike a few times during and after those days. Always approachable and friendly. He was a massive influence on me as a bass player. I miss firehose deeply. I was just a touch too young for the minutemen but certainly picked up on them way back in the day when I first learned of them. I’m now in my 50’s but I feel Mike, Ed and George influenced a LOT of people. Those who knew, just simply knew. My jaw dropped the first time I saw them. They were just so epically talented and tight. Miss them.

Great news! Glad I could be of help! Sorry to learn of Sean Og's death though - I didn't know that. Another great musician gone. I doubt we will ever hear a banjo sound like that of Sean Og and Barney McKenna again. Andrew was also an unfamiliar name for me until I searched for Sean Og. Sounds like a very good singer - but I was too late yet again.
