Minutemen - Live WREK-FM Atlanta Nov 30 1985

[@tangyzesty]

I've never heard Corona with so much distortion, and I love it. It bums me out so much thinking about all the great musical possibilities that died with D. He (and they) were brilliant.

[@ropersf]

This is great. Thank you. I've loved Minutemen since I was a teen back in the early 80s. Saw them play at the The Stone in SF 1985.

What an incalculably tragic loss it is that D. Boon was taken from us -- he was such an incredibly gifted songwriter and performer!!

[@stickeater]

THIS IS AWESOME

[@MrPERPS]

This could be the best goddamn live set in history

[@brepeo]

Was wondering why some of these tracks sounded so familiar, then I realised they're the ones from ballot result...

thanks for that I added the first batch

[@chase7224]

@@MISCchout Hey, thank you for uploading these! I saw that you made a comment 12 years ago on your REM channel that you had Minutemen's last set in "December 13 1985 - Park Center, Charlotte, NC". If you could post that, it would be greatly appreciated! A fantastic piece of musical history. I know that Mike Watt said his last performance before D. Boon passed away was with REM where Mike played guitar with George Hurley & D. Boon playing "See No Evil" which I can't find either.

[@bitxtrem]

That picture is from Halloween 1985. I was at the Gray stone ballroom In Detroit for the show. Watt wore a mask through the whole thing also, kind of a drowned sea captain.Hurley had his foot long fore lock coming out of the head of a zombie mask. D. Had a kind of store-bought cartoon superhero costume, at the time I thought it was rubber man

[@bitxtrem]

Now that I think of it , Watt could have been the "Ancient Mariner" who kilt the albatross

[@adderon]

Looks like D.'s wearing a Beast Man costume with a Mer-Man mask. Both from He-Man

[@songoku0987]

Any chance here or over the web for the highest quality? This is my favorite live performance

[@chlum6295]

This concert is on Internet archive, idk if the quality is increased or not but it probably is
