Minutemen Documentary Comin'

Posted almost 6 years ago
the double-dvd release of the minutemen documentary "we jam econo" has been confirmed for june 27, 2006 on plexifilm. there's three hours and fortytwo minutes of extra content besides the ninety minute feature being shown in theatres now. you can pre-order now to get it before it hits the shelves.some other exciting news: I got a cd-r in the mail from iggy labeled "secret plan" and it's got thirteen song demos w/him singing into a minidisc recorder w/scotty on a little kid drum set and ron on a tiny guitar amp along w/him, all done at his pad in miami. these are songs meant for the first stooges studio album in over thirty years. my mind is totally blown as I work my bass to these babies. ig wants me to spend three days w/him in august - just me and him - so he can nail down what he wants out of me on bass for recording in the fall. I am very excited about this music!

    ampersand2001 says I fucking love you, mike...I remember going to see you on the ballhog or tugboat tour in detroit. It was one of the best shows that I have ever seen. You rocked that place with the BASS!

    Bawston Sean says Hey Watt, Thanks for the rad music. My roommate was in a Minutemen cover band to celebrate the DVD release in Nashville. We listened to those records non-stop for weeks. It took two guiatrists to make up for D. Boon. It ruled. Thanks.

    RobP says dear mike, first, i'm really happy for you that you're healthy. second, i'm a stooges fan for ages but i think i heard too many bad bands influenced by the minutemen to like you guys while you were around (i think it's the vocals--d. boon influenced a lot of bad singers, and it took me until the last year or so to realize what a fucking amazing band you guys were). it's weird listening to musicians who used to be great, not knowing if they're stuck with that "used to be" or if something great's still in there. you with iggy, i got my hopes up. and hey, it'd be cool if you listed some music you like on this site.
