The Minutemen - Mike Watt, D. Boon and George Hurley - once sang "our band could be your life". Over the course of their SST output, including the classic 'Double Nickels on the Dime', the band pushed against the boundaries of punk and hardcore and in the process, demonstrated what a bunch of "corn dogs" from San Pedro could achieve. With their "we jam econo" motto, the Minutemen championed the DIY ethos that shaped the American indie underground. With this video, we tip the hat to a band who truly embodied the spirit of punk empowerment: if they can do it, so can you - their band could be your life.
