Fugazi @ Fort Reno, 2002 - Epic Problem

[JesseLikesFood]

The argument was released in 2001. Thats why people are singing along towards the end... it wasnt unreleased. But still an awesome video

[sarafennell]

Awesome. I was the dark blond head bobbing around right in front of you during this song. Thanks for taking me back to being 18 again :)

[torpeligneB]

This was in 2002 ?

[torpeligneB]

Yes, this was in 2002.

[gazdoesdallas]

How anyone can even mention Fugazi and Bum-Someone 41 in the same breath is sheer lunacy! You are clearly a clueless little man!

[10pounds]

well. Sum 41 is crap, but you calling some one a little man is pathetic.

[fugazidave]

I was there! 5 feet from the stage. Epic fucking show!

[wheredoescouragecome]

Doubtless someone will track me down and kill me for this, but I've always thought that the melody of this song's coda ("I've goooot this epic problem") sounds like Sum 41.

I mean, if Sum 41 threw a shitload of chord changes behind their melodies and played in 6/4, but still...

[chumph514]

Yeah the greatest band of all time steals music from sum 41

[anarchokid00]

too bad fugazi was around looooong before those faggots showed up on mtv

[Glueman71]

dumbass! Stop flaunting your ignorance of music.

[gripper61]

Fugazi had this song in the wings for almost a decade before ever playing it. Apparently they couldn't settle on the structure (also I believe it was originally 2 separate songs before the put them together as one). So if you're implying they lifted or borrowed or were influenced by Sum 41, I think it highly unlikely, especially since Sum 41 wasn't around til, what, '96 or something .

Minute 2:33--is just awesome.

[numberthreepencil]

So much better than the CD version. Amazing. Tough to go uphill from that.

[xanadanBwow]

well idk whats wrong with e but, i thought that song sucked...

[cabuvalente]

much better quality on this one

this music in particular is awesome!

[vacolten]

I stand corrected :) I do remember going to one show at Trax in Charlottesville when I heard some of the songs off that album (I think the song Argument in particular) and I remember thinking I couldnt wait to hear the rest of their new stuff. I guess I just got it confused with the Fort Reno show.

[myzenthing]

Ah, this brings back memories! I was at this show also. Dammit, I miss Fugazi...

[bktennis2006]

Absolutely amazing song...one of their best rockers by far...gotta love that instrumental near the end of the song after the second chorus...disgustingly awesome.

[uglysentenza]

One of my favorite song of Fugazi

They rule :)

[mindbodylightsound10]

I'd just like to comment that the album "the argument" had definately been released previous to this performance. It came out in 2001. I was also at this show and definately remembered knowing all the words to the song. One of my favs. Thanks for the video.

[brenthow1]

You are absolutely right! I went to every Fugazi show between '96-'99. I used to book shows at my college in Md. I, to this day, talk with Ian on a weekly basis. Fort Reno was always a blast but this song was out over a year when this video was made.

[cauthoncrazy]

That is so cool! Were you at Montgomery College?

[V0lk]

[absentOhobo]
