Love these guys. They look like they teleported from different eras to play rock music together. Husker Du: a donut salesman, a homeless cowboy dad, and a glamorous pirate.

It was in front of the Hennepin County Government Bldg in Downtown Mpls. Everyone I hung out with was just TORCHED from the night before- we hadn't gone to sleep and just partied until the show- afterwards we ended up in the Uptown Bar with Bloody Marys and more coke. What a night/morning! Back when Minneapolis was fun!

I skipped out on class too! The way I remember it they asked the band to shorten a song or two and stop playing... The old lady in the audience was out dancing when the Husker's put on an impromptu concert after the show was done taping. It was really early in the morning, but I remember a good size crowd, dough nuts and special export.

I remember taping this off of NBC, I think there was also a break where they did their version of the Mary Tyler Moore theme, which had been a b-side on SST. (And that last song is Everytime, a b-side written by Greg Norton, a relative rarity in the HD catalogue.)

Ok this might be a reply to a year old post but fuck it. Bro everyone loves trolling but classic music come on. LOL ur 2 cool bro. Husker Du influenced The Pixies,Nirvana, and a lot of indy/alternative/punk groups. In fact the whole 90's era wouldn't have happened . Oh and lets not forget Dinorsaur fucking Jr and Sebadoh. As for your poppy mainstream punk that you speak of actually took (or should i say tried) to take there whole style from Jawbreaker but made it into complete shit. :P
