D.Boon is talking about the band in this video, which is not the Minutemen. This is the "Reactionaries" which was a short lived project prior to it transitioning into the Minutemen.
Come on Minutemen buffs, I thought this was fairly common knowledge that "The Minutemen" as we know it isn't how it began.
Great upload nonetheless, amazing that someone caught this.
@jimmyji That's Richard Derrick. He was room mates with D. George could not get off of his day job, so Richard filled in. This was shot at a show on the UCLA campus Jan 30, 1985.
I believe that this was the only show the Minutemen played without George. D agreed to play the show as a favor and there wasn't much as far as pay goes. I may me wrong?? Great Vid.
thanks for putting this
i'm french and wonder where does this footage come from?

Video's either an example of really great editing, or everyone there actually suffered a slow donning seizure.

Man, hadn't seen this before. That's a kick-ass version! Good sound, too. And thanks to @ericdrum74 for the info on George's replacement drummer.

@Samguitar27 There's a chance it could be him. Dinosaur were huge fans of the Minutemen and toured with them.
