[caesar349]

the four dislikes are dooooouches

[blur991]

4 people need to go get stuffed.



[TheSicDominator]

I wonder why the camera has a black and white filter, stupid cameramen thinking people care about that stupid "scuzzy" look

[patdenton]

Wow, I love Fugazi. The live version is ALOT better than the album version in my opinion.

[aronconawaycom]

I drove from Louisville through the night to see that show with 3 of my best friends. We arrived at Mayo Maryland, smoked a joint on the beach and ended up driving through a high school parking lot as the kids went inside while we jacked Hot for Teacher loud as hell. A beautiful day and an incredible sunset that night.

I recorded the set from the audience with my cassette recorder and listened to that thing for years in my car's cassette player. Good days they were.

[headman844]

i live down nebraska

[easywind1975]

I was at this show with my college buddy and his little brother. We had an absolute blast (drank a bit too much) but sadly is the last time I ever saw my friend's brother he died in a car wreck a year or too later. What a great last memory from a great day. Thanks for posting!

[maxfhasroses]

i live like a block from there

[misterrosewater]

It's like post-punk in the round.

[serpukhovien]

they are very similar to at the drive-in

its really cool

now i can explore more of the post-hardcore type genre

[Hard88Liner]

well, maybe you should say "at the drive in" are similar to them... because there are almost 10 years of difference between both bands, I mean, between this fugazi song and the first atdi album.Fugazi are great, but nothing better than Moss Icon and Rites of Spring.

[aronconawaycom]

Fuck yeah, Moss Icon! I wanna see video of them!!!

[marcusguernsey]

@hard 88: i say for a def.fact that Moss Icon was ispired by Rites of Spring.Moss Icon played with ~Fugazi at least 4 times,with the best ever line up being: Nation of Uylesses (1st ever show) Moss Icon,Ignition,Fugazi 1988 Wilson Centre in front of over 500 people.i was shitting my 18 year old undies (Laughter)

[Mollysconfession]

@serpukhovien NO. At the drive-in are very similar to fugazi and heavily influenced by them. If you see them playing live you'll notice Cedric takes alot of his moves from Guy Picciotto

[helloplunt]

wait a minute!

i was there!

[helloplunt]

i had no idea who fugazi was at the time and i happened to be visiting friends in dc and we went to see that (free) show; one of the best shows i've seen! huge but very well behaved audience

[fuckyouall0001x]

fugazi the fucking best

[ltm7575]

If you had to use labels i would say this band is the start of indie. Not emo at all but who the fuck cares its still just good music

[XMuraX]

The indie movement was already in full swing by the time Fugazi came around. Fugazi really is a testament to indie groups, though. Probably the most influential non-Pixies band to never be signed to a major label.

[Maxzilla33]

Im 13...i dont think they're emo, i love em

[khrisfromsmoke]

i now officially own more dischord records than anything else

sorry greg ginn

[pplus0440]

can you email me 13 songs?

[poolpig]

why dont u buy it its priced for people

[dovidov903]

he knows that dumbass, its called a joke

[redresch]

1...2...3. Ribena!!!.... Oh man that is soo awesome. That lyric is about 1,000,000 times cooler than Repeater.

[GoogleKate]

haa!!!

that's alot cooler!

kudos to you.

[Figa71]

Get a grip and a sense of humour sleepdeprivation. I suggest 10 codeine, a bottle of buckfast, look up the word 'irony' in the dictionary and then got to bed.

[bigwigum]

fugazi is punk thats all

[sleepdeprivation78]

mrdubya2000 you moron he says "repeater" not

"Ribena" you fat load of diseased bukkake.

[str84ever]

People are probably saying that Fugazi are emo because they are mentioned in the wikipedia emo article. They ARE NOT emo, they are punk.

This video is fucking raw it kicks ass, thanks for uploading it.

[hostagetaker]

Guy Picciotto's old band Rites Of Spring and Ian Mackaye's old band Embrace were pretty much the first ever to be labelled "emo", due to their emotion on stage. Modern emo is a now unrecognisable derivative of these bands.

Fugazi are best labelled post-hardcore, even though that's a very vague term.

[midwestnewsgirl]

It's too bad the video guy is way off in the earlier days of Fugazi because he makes me dizzy watching this. Fugazi is one of my favorite bands so I guess I can't complain about actually seeing old video. God Bless youtube!

[mrdubya2000]

1...2...3...Ribena!

[hiltoverkof]

love it

[emptyheadbrokenbones]

uan ciuu trii..rapidar!

[jawshchevyvan]

guy looks like he is from some other planet. thats how he gets those sounds. every aspect of this band deserves respect. praise be. so punk they can be as arty as they wanna.

[jordanboz]

omg, fugs is awe... bbbbbbllllllluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­gggggghhhhhhhh

[CityofButterfly]

Fugazi is my favorite band ever. This song was 130,987,465 times better live than on CD.

[2882890]

Rubbish! Where did you get your figures from?!? I got a totally different figure to two decimal places!

[ProfessorHuggins]

emo? hahahaha give me a fucking break don't even taint this band with that labeling bullshit.

[thecat69meow]

love this track, this band is kicking

[RMBowden]

Man, Fugazi were great performers. I'm surprised Picciotto never knocked all of his shit down.

[CreamSpinachplz]

I can see how rites of spring and some of those other old washington bands can be labled emo

but fugazi for me

thier to political to be emo,

[karatebankrobber]

lmao @ emo. those cunts are too busy cutting their wrists and telling people off for laughing at their banal, self-indulgent selves on the internet than do anything useful like get a fucking identity of their own. "Oh we dress and sound alike, we are fighting against uniformity AND are champions of individuality!" LOL! uh huh, you and yr KISS army-like clones out there in good charlotte land. Yup.

[jjoefishh]

wrong emo man, completely wrong

[unixriver]

I feel that song in my bones.Great song

[deejay2257]

I wish Fugs had made proper music videos.

[jeremyxross]

define "proper".

and btw, this isn't a music video. this is just a live recording done by a fan. fugazi would never do a music video.

[emptyheadbrokenbones]

but there's a video of waiting room! is it unofficial?

[emptyheadbrokenbones]

but there's a video for waiting room...or is it unofficial?

[gripper61]

no video at at all, sir. not from them.

[deejay2257]

Fugazi rocks! They are my favourite punk group alongside Offspring and Green Day. Real music to rock out to and drink some beers to.

Along with GNR I wish I had seen them live. Punk rock rules!

[jeremyxross]

...guns n' roses? please. stay on similarity track.

offspring, green day, and gnr do not stay near fugazi because fugazi is nowhere their genre of music. i think i've just lost millions of my brain cells just reading that comment. ah itzuhwahkinggg fuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[tecanta77]

I hope is just a joke...

[lukeywongface]

hahaha...thats right i'd love to sit and drink some beers with fugazi...wouldnt any fugazi fan...

fucking tit...

great fugazi fan you are:S

.x.

[sk2nightfire2]

Emo originally stood for emotional hardcore; which was hardcore punk with more emotional vocals and,to an extent, lyrics., It was totally different than the retarded shit on tv you see today. Some members of those emo bands formed Fugazi. While not considered emo, the members of the Fugazi brought some influences of the bands they were formerly in and, in turn, also influenced bands that are labelled indie emo. They are important in the early formation of emo, but are post-hardcore.

[bernaschek]

sorry for my realy bad english, at fist.

but this emo vs. hardcore-discussion is really stupid. rites of spring, fugazi, soulside and all the other bands from d.c. draw a very straight line. i am listening to fugazi and to improvised music as well. both, fugazi and various improvisors (including guy p.)are describing my hopes for the future so well!

[ziggystardust3113]

small man, BIG MOUTH

[aronconawaycom]

I was at this show and i have audio that is way better than this. Let me know if you ever feel like editing a better audio track in.

[JoshFM]

I hate the way 'emo' is used in modern time, everyone thinks it is a word to describe shit bands like "My Chemical Romance" and "Fall Out Boy" and etc. I wish Fuse (the channel) would die along with MTV2 and MTV!

[koreindian1]

why do you even care about genres? the mean nothing and essentially reflect nothing of the bands they are used to describe. Just lumping bands together is foolhardy.

[cosselman]

I read all your comments, it's fucking FUGAZI

if you dont like it,dont watch it. Go vote or feed my turtle or turn off my comuputer.

[koreindian1]

people have the right to watch things they don't like. It's pathetic, but they can if they want to. Don't turn music into dogma.

[wyldkatt2005]

labels aside. What an amazingly efficient use fo texture and rhythm in this band. To get that much out of such minimal instrumentation.

[ryzingsun11]

the description is wrong, thats guy quoting it not ian

[ritesofspr]

Are you talking about my description in the About This Video section??? You must not be, either that or you didn't watch the video or you don't know who Ian or Guy are.

[zoooyorker]

@ryzingsun11

That definitely is Ian

[lastexit764]

who cares about whats emo and whats not ian may have made emo but the point is he totally changed what a band could do to fight the mainstream, not signing to the major labels, not selling tickets on ticketmaster, keeping cd, vinyl gig prices low he was so anti mainstream when i saw them in london he kicked someone out for wearing a nike top. fugazi forever

[helenforsdale]

that's bullshit. they're punk, not assholes.

[Chadgod]

NOW emo is a word that "death metal kids" use to describe "non-death metal kids". Get it fucking straight!! I'm tired of hearing this meaningless word like it actually has a genre to back it up.

The conclusion: "Emo" kids (who don't actually listen to emo) claim all the music they DO listen to as emo music. In reality, emo simply describes a counter culture where depressed bisexual kids dress like douches, cut their wrists, and kiss their friends.

[skateordiemisfits]

emo IS a type of music Fugazi does rock and to anybody who thinks their Emo they arent you are

[Chadgod]

dude.. since fucking when did people start considering fugazi emo?! what the fuck!? i remember all the people who listened to emo when it was a real genre... they didn't listen to fugazi... and guess what boys and girls.. they didn't cut their wrists and genderbend either.. emo was a real genre for like 2 years (check out mineral and sunny day real estate). it's not anymore.. it's simply a counter-cultural movement.

[pulpstress]

was this that festival thingy they did with joan jett?

[aconaway]

I drove 10 hours to see that show and it was worth every minute. Beautiful sunset that night (I think I remember that). I have a cassette tape recording that doesn't sound quite as good as this. Great work on this one!

[jagargal]

El punk no está muerto... (está ahí aunque no lo veas en MTV) Las categorías siempre son cagantes, pero bueno, usamos estas al etiquetar bandas "punk", no?... Emo?? un termino que no nos gusta a los de la vieja escuela (ni siquiera a Ian Mackaye). Y honestamente no noto influencia de Fugazi o Rites of Spring en las bandas llamadas "Emo". Por otro lado, despedazar el termino "Emo" me parece tan infantil como defenderlo a toda costa. Son simplemente otros tiempos.

[fugazi1999]

fugazi is d.c.; leave it at that.........

[fugazi1999]

fugazi is d.c.; leave it at that.........

[doc998]

woot nonsquishy

[nonsquishy]

It's not a genre, its a song.?

[ritesofspr]

I am locking down comments on my videos guys. I spend more time deleted "Great site but check this site out HOTBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH" than I do reading real comments. I hate to censor, and I won't as long as it's on topic, but these comment flooders need to be stopped.

[superTSM]

awesome song, it's fucking disco you clowns!

[andrilds]

Emo Old School so...

kkkkk

[joevegan]

fugazi invented emo, this is what it should have been. post hardcore back in '88 was emo.

[taaaaaa]

Fugazi emo? jajajaja, como me hacen reir, gringos estupidos. Viva Fugazi, un grupo totalmente innovador y lleno de fuerza, es insultante que sea comparado con la basura que es el emo.

[nonsquishy]

En un nivel estoy de acuerdo.  Pero que digas esa tonteria de "gringos estupidos" no me chinges. Son gentes como tu que bajan la inteligencia de la poblacion. No comentes de una banda si no la entiendes... Menso.

[mwrr25]

dc...represent.....the g manifesto........the bible for international playboys...thegmanifesto. com

[samikaze]

Fugazi is Punk; Definitely not fucking emo...

[crossoverfan]

Fugazi is PostHardCore

[smurfettecumdumpster]

Emo is punk genius.

[taaaaaa]

emo es basura, no tiene nada que ver con la rebeldia, fuerza e irreverencia del punk, el punk como movimiento ha muerto y esta muerto porque los jovenes de esta generacion de mierda cambiaron la rebeldia por una adolecencia frustrada.

[smurfettecumdumpster]

No emo is awesome. Rites of Spring and Embrace had Guy and Ian as singers. Emo is not garbage.

[calabazindrunk]

Emo now is garbage man, comercial garbage.

[martin1226]

Emo is a twatted, eye shadow wearing, mtv creation.

Don't drag Fugazi into this emo fiasco. George Bush loves emo.

[kdmore]

Hey martin, this is the funniest comment ever ... could you imagine, like, someone from Rites of Spring on TV, going, "George Bush hates emo." Tickle me, Emo!

[chincheese]

Never speak again.

When your mouth opens, all I hear is fail.

[steelers724309]

this is not a fugazi video

[90ALONSO90]

what the fuck ian is not emo fugazi is not emo check this w w w .you tube . c o m / watch?v= mbdh0Qm_5A0

[assmunchies]

how the hell is guy getting all that awesome feedback?

[tftrsi]

this show looks awesome. I was lucky enough to see them play a few years ago and they blew me away.

Nice work.

[astrozombie777]

minor threat, fugazi, teen idles,and embrace need to go on a reunion tour thing.ian is fucking incredible

[jamrine]

Best show I ever attended. "There's no J Street." Hilarious.

[Kiddjimmy1]

[birdshot]

Sing it, Ian, sing it!

[sitnspin]

Those were the fucking days. Feeling it, meaning it... damn. And now I'm getting old and I can't be arsed to go out to rock shows any more.

[xtcdukes]

Aside from the fact that most bands now suck.

[sandorfintor]
