WFMU: Drop-In: Playlist from October 21, 2023

Listener comments!
	10:15am DJ Terre T: Once again TheCityGardens OG, RKO brings WFMU an off -the- board, never heard before live document. We are incredibly honored and lucky to archive the 1985 document of the last live performance of The MINUTEMEN at the legendary NJ rock venue City Gardens, months before D.Boon’s untimely death.
	10:21am DJ Terre T: I have heard this recording prior to upload and it is SO incredibly great ! NOTE: Though this was recorded off-the-board, it was still captured on ye olde Cassette tape which had to be restored and cleaned up after years in storage. So it won't be digital crystal clear --that said, after 38 years this sounds pretty damn amazing. My mind's truly blown by this MINUTEMEN document - thank you RKO for rescuing this precious recording.
	5:51pm Aitch: This should be great

	6:26pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @6:25 You are probably right....but my "accurate memory" is not remembering that at the moment.
	6:26pm DanFA: For my money, the best band to come out of the California punk/proto alternative rock scene.
	6:26pm MOM WHIG: I not O
	6:27pm MOM WHIG: ↳ DanFA @6:26 hi
	6:27pm Teej: This is the song that changed my thinking about what is "punk rock"
	6:28pm DanFA: ↳ MOM WHIG @6:27 Hi Mom.
	6:28pm DJ Terre T: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @6:25 Ah I tend to doubt MOM WHIG at a BAD BRAINS show😘 But she was in DC at some point!

	6:30pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Song: "Cut" by "The Minutemen live at City Gardens, 1985" This one is so great. Makes me think they might’ve been listening to the Pop Group & Gang of Four at the time. And did that style even bettah.
	6:30pm MOM WHIG: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:29 hi there
	6:30pm DJ Terre T: ↳ JReganK @6:29 🤣🤣
	6:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ MOM WHIG @6:30 hello...

	6:32pm Possiter Slug Enthusiast: ↳ DanFA @6:31 Nah, I had Double Nickels... before that, but didn't really like it much at the time. I was too much of a dumb metal head to appreciate them at the time.
	6:32pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DJ Terre T @6:31 thx
	6:33pm RKO_CityGardensOG: Possiter , Thanks for stopping by!
	6:33pm DJ Terre T: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @6:30 Oh wow interesting observation - I never never thought to compare them to the POP GROUP and really Gang of 4-- I hear it now tho
	6:33pm DanFA: ↳ Possiter Slug Enthusiast @6:32 I never watched Jackass, wasn't my thing, even though it was big during my high school years. But when I first heard Corona I was like "oh, so this is that song."
	6:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ RKO_CityGardensOG @6:32 that one esp was tight but just tuned in
	6:34pm Teej: RKO, you got it, fave band ever and much love to CG. Popped in to the mancave when I was back East in July and Randy still remembered me 20+ years later
	6:34pm courtneynoir: ↳ DanFA @6:31 nope - just good old fashioned taking up skateboarding in the late 80s/early 90s for me
	6:34pm RKO_CityGardensOG: This is sort of an encore, I think they just needed to take a breather
	6:34pm DJ Terre T: ↳ Teej @6:31 TJ what POP GROUP choon does Watt cover?
	6:34pm marco: ↳ DJ Terre T @6:33 also WIRE was a great inspiration for'em..first lp..Pink flag, short fast songs!

	6:37pm DJ Terre T: ↳ DanFA @6:33 For Jackass to play Corona made me have mad respect for those bananas
	6:37pm DanFA: ↳ DJ Terre T @6:37 And then Johnny Knoxville starred in a John Waters film.
	6:37pm MOM WHIG: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @6:37 I bet I would - they are Action Packed

	👻 6:38pm Alvy Singerthst.: ↳ Song: "The Red and The Black (Blue Oyster Cult cover)" b... Another band they loved. Richard Meltzer wrote a bunch of lyrics for the band that Watt had hoped to record. But the passing of Boon ended that idea.

Listener comments!
	10:15am DJ Terre T: Once again TheCityGardens OG, RKO brings WFMU an off -the- board, never heard before live document. We are incredibly honored and lucky to archive the 1985 document of the last live performance of The MINUTEMEN at the legendary NJ rock venue City Gardens, months before D.Boon’s untimely death.
	10:21am DJ Terre T: I have heard this recording prior to upload and it is SO incredibly great ! NOTE: Though this was recorded off-the-board, it was still captured on ye olde Cassette tape which had to be restored and cleaned up after years in storage. So it won't be digital crystal clear --that said, after 38 years this sounds pretty damn amazing. My mind's truly blown by this MINUTEMEN document - thank you RKO for rescuing this precious recording.
	5:51pm Aitch: This should be great
	5:52pm MOM WHIG: Hi Terre T & G'Day aitch

	6:33pm RKO_CityGardensOG: Possiter , Thanks for stopping by!
