About this product

Product Information

Theatrical release: August 26, 2005 (Limited)When D. Boon fell out of a tree onto Mike Watt in a San Pedro, CA park in the early 1970s, the 13-year-olds began a friendship, resulting in one of the most unique collaborations in American punk music. After graduating high school, the two Blue Oyster Cult fans met gifted drummer George Hurley and formed The Minutemen, releasing five LPs in four years--including the highly regarded DOUBLE NICKELS ON THE DIME (named as a response to Sammy Hagar's "I Can't Drive 55"). Too experimental and political for many young punks, they were often spit upon during performances for their jazzy, funky detours. Their growing success was cut short when Boon was killed in an auto accident in December 1985 after completing a tour with R.E.M.WE JAM ECONO, directed by Tim Irwin, is a touching elegy to the trio. Structured around the remembrances of Watt, who recollects while driving his van around San Pedro, the film includes testimonials from Jello Biafra, Flea, John Doe, Richard Hell, and dozens more friends and followers of the band. With many archival performances capturing the considerable power of the band, Irwin allows those who missed them to see their influential and singular take on American hardcore.

  • Jesus & Tequila

    If your like me... never fortunate enough to see these guys live this DVD has to be the next best thing. P.S. Mike Watt has been known to grace a stage from time to time, I was lucky enough to see that and highly recommend you do the same. holy smokes can that guy handle a bass guitar.

  • Unbelievable!

    I was about 18 when I first heard the Minutemen in 1988. They were already gone and I'd never got to see them. As a bassist growing up in San Gabriel Valley (LA) this music really hit hard and was a HUGE influence on everything I was doing at the time. This was a great DVD , a bit nostalgic for me to say the least but I really enjoyed finally getting to watch live footage of these guys. Saw Firehose a dozen or so times in the late 80's early 90's but wow, what a treat to see D. Boon in action on this film. Very highly recommended!

  • The Minutemen We jam econo DVD

    I live in Italy so, unforunately, I've never seen the Minutemen live, but I've loved their records and their attitude. This DVD is a great occasion to know their story and see and hear them in action. You can't just miss it if you love music, not only punk or alternative or....., and unforgettable and precious people like D Boon and his friends.

  • Great music Doc.

    Excellent movie about one of the most underappreciated bands that has ever existed, (I'm talking mainstream recognition here). There is also an amazing "unplugged" live set that's worth watching on disc two.
