    You might enjoy the great documentary about these guys called "We Jam Econo". The DVD is getting hard to find but I imagine you can stream it. I also really the chapter on this great band in Michael Azerrad's fine book, Our Band Could Be You're Life-- which is a big nod to Minutemen as that title is a line from their song, History of the World Part II

    B, you beat me to it--I was going to mention that doc. That is good stuff. And, yes!, to the Michael Azzerad book.

    Crazy to think it has been 30 years.

    I knew you'd be there with this, SD! FANATICS to the core!
