@terryowah you're just a dickhead! i don't care if you don't like their music, but it doesn't suck. and why should they give him more information? they are making music, that's it.
Ian MacKaye of FUGAZI delivers an epic tale of a European tour threatened by a massive attack of Polish skinheads. It's a must read. Check it out at THE WORST GIG (WorstGig.com).
One of my favorite bands, yet they tend to speak in a very condescending tone to everyone - including fans. I guess that's part of Fugazi's mystique...
@clovismcpony In 1988 I talked to Guy before the Lafayette Park show and he was as nice as could be to me, answered my questions about Rites of Spring since I barely knew of Fugazi still as they were so new and told me to have a great day when he had to get ready for their set. This interviewer was just lame.
Rich brats/momma's boys who think they're so fuckin' special that they need to tell other people what to do. Anybody listening to these fags for advice needs to go into the closet and hang themselves now. End of story. These clowns were all from rich families and had the whole world given to them. Teen angst and parental donations allowed them to have a life free of real work & real life tribulations. Go ahead and listen to these brats tell you what to do and how to live. You are all morons!
@misfit662145 Actually, kid, my sex life is great. The truth is that these brats were pissed off 'cause they couldn't get into The Bayou, 9:30 Club, or d.c. space 'cause they were little fair-faced punks so they decided to get pissed off at everybody who was in the clubs partying. Thus the "straight-edge" scene developed. Only geeks, dweebs, and nerds got carded at those clubs back in those days. Good for f'in them.
@Solid1rock Totally agree with you, Solid1rock. The problem was that these "straight edgers" were going around & beating on people at shows because they were drinking or smoking & just generally exercising their human right of free choice. It's one thing to do your own thing. It's another to push your shit on someone else. At a Fear show in '03, one kid comes up to me & a friend and tells us to get lost(my friend was smoking a cigarette), but the overzealous dweeb thought it was a joint.
@Solid1rock ....cont. There were plenty of people smoking cigarettes outside the show, but he went after the person who didn't have his head shaved, wasn't dressed in all black, and rolled his own tobacco. He was in such a rush to push his straight edge agenda on us that he almost got the shit beat out of him. And what for? Because Ian MacKaye told him to? Because he was concerned about my friend's health or second hand smoke? NO! He did it to try & act the part he had seen others do.
yes fugazi can be seen as aggressive...., i think you can listen to 'aggressive' music without being an aggressive person. Point being, he has his mother side of stage listen to this set and she is 'supportive' of the way he expresses himself. All true musicians create music from life experience and all music lovers enjoy what they can relate too.
a tight lipped couple of fugazi lads, not very forthcoming or giving about their music... well, i guess maybe they've gotten sick of it, or at least the interviews as such... i already thought their style and overall appearance was stripped down and generic seeming, but interviews as well? well, at least this one... they nailed at least a few songs down quite effectively in my opinion - immortalizing them in subculture music circles as far as i'm concerned, but they ain't no PIXIES! (unfair?)
@Druffmaul it smacked of standoffishness and arrogance... not very giving responses... hey, maybe they were both too tired... at least one admitted it... there is often a grandiose level of self-importance with rockers - ego boosts beyond their years because their words are SO IMPORTANT because they have attractive popular music to back their lyrics... people aren't so profound when the communication is both ways, which isNOT what any rock show is about - other than cheers from the crowd?
@Druffmaul the interviewer was really trying to find some depth of thought and understanding that may not be there... i doubt the office building across the way really informed the process of his art making music style or whatever... it was just a rude smart alec response... or artful creativity? i've had these moody emotional short lived discussions with "artists" before. i should know, i am one. when nonartists ask questions try to be joyful and giving, not demeaning toward misunderstanding
@glorp896 I'm starting to wonder if YOU are the interviewer in this video? Why else would you be sticking up for him and trying to make it sound like he's some earnest and sincere guy who is genuinely interested... when he's obviously not interested at all, he sounds bored out of his skull. I doubt he wanted to even be there, he was probably sent by the local paper and wished he was at home watching TV. Piss off.
@Druff no i wasn't but i hope the interviewer had as much depth of thought as i have given the lack of response, poor interviewer guy:( you think he was not genuine and interested? so what if he wasnt? - could have been going through the motions as a favor to a friend? i'm sure many interviewers are just doing their jobs and asking preassigned questions FROM ABOVE. piss off? well maybe fugazi should have been more direct in that regard and said that? TV is more important than Fugazi
This proves my scienctific theory: even the nicest guys in the world can't help but turn into dicks when confronted by some head-up-his-ass douchebag who couldn't interview his way out of a wet paper bag.
Fugazi transcend hardcore, they transcend music itself. People get angry when people are searching for something and get lost in attitude and self belief. These guys deserve their faults though, at least they arent sitting on their ass applying makeup and listening to godsmack.
This was at a time in music when all hardcore bands felt they HAD to act like douche bags to anyone interested in them. We were all so obsessed with the concept of "selling out" that it was deemed necessary. Always pissed me off as we were their fans that it put me off ever giving a shit about meeting any of them. Love their music but F them.
That's right - Fugazi are nazis because they had shaved heads in 1989. That's how you spot a nazi, you ask him or her for a picture of his or herself in 1989. Ian MacKaye is such a nazi that his hairline is receding from it. All bald men are nazis, by default. All women married to bald men are nazis, by association. Babies come from storks. If anyone has any more unsupportable statements you'd like backing up using only the flimsiest of observations, please don't hesitate to let me know.
@TenCityNation you know whats funny? aside from all your sarcasm, ian mackaye is kind of a nazi. he wants you to listen to his hitler speeches about whats right and whats wrong and how p.c. he is. well who fucking cares?! minor threat was great, fugazi fucking blows!
@WilloBoarding if i had that kind of testicle hair id be more of a man than anyone but fugazis neo nazi and im pretty sure me and fugazi teamed up would do the beating
@morgan2993 ur propbly not even serious, but if u are, ur beyond retarded.
Fugazi aren't neo nazi, if you even suggested that to Ian MacKaye he would probably stomp ur head in, so u can forget about 'teaming up' hahaha. The original comment that u replied to that suggested Fugazi are nazis is so obviously being sarcastic, you missed the joke and being that stupid I wouldnt be surprised if you really are a neo nazi, in which case it would be best for everyone if you'd just kill youself.
Fugazi racist? Ian and Guy should nut punch the fool who said that. I have meet Ian MacKaye. My brother knows Ian MacKaye. If you have ever lived in DC you most likely have meet Ian Mackaye. He is a great guy who just likes to make music. In fact the most racist person i've meet in Dc is Whitey; a pro nazi black chick who drives a pick up (who is also a very nice person believe it or not). So before you say something about shit you dont know maybe you should shut the fuck up. His mom is great!
The comments about Guy snorting cocaine and Fugazi being racist are downright disgusting. Fugazi were all about respect and against drugs, what the hell is your problem?
IM VERY TIRED I CANT TELL YA DAT I NEED TOSIT DOWN LOL GO GET A JOB AND WE WILL TALK TIRED GO COUNT UR MONEY THEY WERE JUST THE REVERSE SCHTICK OH THE SEX PISTOLS
@hchahim I don't care. Don't you understand that nobody is better than anybody else? As long as you're a human you can never compare yourself to another human.
@Boomoutgothelights Well, you CAN compare yourself to another human, you just shouldn't do it on things such as skin color or religion and shit like that.
@Boomoutgothelights lt all comes down to how one conducts oneself. Some people are much better than other people - you can see that in the way they live their lives. Everyone gets to choose how they live, their actions, everyone has freewill.
@hchahim No. As long as you've got some sort of supernatural power (which is obviously impossible), you're not better than anybody. Nobody's smarter than anybody else...One day in the future any "fact" we know, even scientific, will be updated and made better...therefore one can only be more informed on current matters,but there's no such thing as smarter. A rich man in USA is better than a starving child in Ethiopia, only by the standards of the fascist, greedy, imperialistic system of the USA.
@Boomoutgothelights According to you there is no good and bad - no better or worse.
Everyone has the same potential however what we do with our potential is up to us. We all have free will and we all make our own decisions which we then have to live with. lf you dont have a value system then you have no means to judge what is better and what is worse.
@hchahim No that's not true..."According to you there is no good and bad..." That is not true and I don't know where you get these baseless claims from. I said no one person on Earth can say they are "better" than another person. You may say you have performed less "crimes" (depending on what your definition of a crime is...remember, this greedy, fascist capitalist system unjustly defines many things to be crimes), but you may never say you are better than somebody and not be ignorant.
why would anyone think they are racist? and the song guilty of being white was not about hating any other race it was was about being hated for things that the white race did in the past and that they have done nothing racist but are still hated because they're "guilty of being white"
guilty of being white? wtf guys come on. he was against labels and classifications and so we all should be too. we could finally live in peace if people stopped grouping and judging others just because they were born or act different, and just empathize and understand. who gives a shit what you look like or what you think? thats you.
@N0SLAV3 yer if youre white youre expected to go hide under a shrub - after youve handed all your money over to the redistribution board for the advancement of any minority that isnt white - and signed off on your confession professing mass guilt for being born at all
I don't know why many people say they are racist (they don't talk about it in this video).. However what is sure is that their music is about the destruction of the planet by the hands of man (this is my translation of what Guy says at the end of the video).. So i don't think they can be racist.
yeah i agree with the caribbean guy down below, but i mean i've seen plenty of stuff of ian mackaye being really pissed because people think he's racist, i mean minor threat was like bad brains little brother band, that enough should say they aren't racist but whatever
well whatever you think of this band no matter how good or shit...everyone deserves a decent question, not this dumb and dumber interviewer who sucks the sweat of a dead mans balls
honestly, these guys are dicks. they want to change the world through music but you can't even understand the fucking lyrics. fuck them. next time I see a fucker like these guys I am going be a true fucking punk and jump onstage and pop one of these motherfuckers!
They are both miserable and unkind. So many of the old punk rockers are so cynical and bitter. I realize you have daddy issues, but that's no reason to be a deuche to people.
@quikdon actually they are both really nice guys. they are just getting asked stupid questions by this guy. they also hate doing interviews except for fanzines. you clearly are clueless and stupid. Douche btw.
@BenjaminFrankenstein 'Fuck Off'? - your hatred is misplaced. The questions being asked are generic bile. They ain't worthy of a serious answer. It's like a stranger coming up to you on the street asking you details about your girlfriends pussy. Use your head next time.
DC PPL... are very straight forward and have A great Sense of Humor!... I like that,.... Met Henry Rollins this year... Ian and Hank have almost the same Mannerisms... its uncanny!
haha either they knew who the camera guy was,or they simply just didn't care about who he was...and this whole,"is fugazi racist?" is complete utter retardation,obviously somebody out there doesn't know how to read.and if its about the song "guilty of being white" by Minor Threat,well,the meaning of THAT song that ian is NOT like the white people generations before him who were racist and mongers,and he shouldn't accused of being one,just because he's white,thats all the song is about! reaaaad!!
mackeye seemed pisseddddddddddddddd for no reason but the seconed guy was funny umm this appartment building is sentimentle to me and influences my music lol
Straight edge 20-something werewolves. Seriously, never trust a man like Guy. Hey'll raid your kitchen for noodles while Ian sits back on the couch drinking Sprite while everyone else is having fun. AT LEAST THEY NEVER SOLD OUT.
Sounds like the cameraman was a schmuck and was harassing them, and they didn't want to be dicks so they played along, but you can tell they're tired and don't want to deal with his shit.
haha it seems as if an interview were the last thing guy and ian wanted to do that day. i've met them both and they're actually quite nice, genuine and patient human beings. however, I did meet them post fugazi, and this was back when they still had their youthful fire if you will, i guess. it's pretty funny either way, though
I spoke with Ian on one occasion at Gilman St, I'd guess around 88 or 89 and I'd have to say that he was one of the nicest and most genuine people I have met to this day.
Fugazi ain't a hardcore band. Maybe post hardcore.

@Boomoutgothelights According to you there is no good and bad - no better or worse.
Everyone has the same potential however what we do with our potential is up to us. We all have free will and we all make our own decisions which we then have to live with. lf you dont have a value system then you have no means to judge what is better and what is worse.

@hchahim No that's not true..."According to you there is no good and bad..." That is not true and I don't know where you get these baseless claims from. I said no one person on Earth can say they are "better" than another person. You may say you have performed less "crimes" (depending on what your definition of a crime is...remember, this greedy, fascist capitalist system unjustly defines many things to be crimes), but you may never say you are better than somebody and not be ignorant.

why would anyone think they are racist? and the song guilty of being white was not about hating any other race it was was about being hated for things that the white race did in the past and that they have done nothing racist but are still hated because they're "guilty of being white"

For something I didn't do

guilty of being white? wtf guys come on. he was against labels and classifications and so we all should be too. we could finally live in peace if people stopped grouping and judging others just because they were born or act different, and just empathize and understand. who gives a shit what you look like or what you think? thats you.

I don't know why many people say they are racist (they don't talk about it in this video).. However what is sure is that their music is about the destruction of the planet by the hands of man (this is my translation of what Guy says at the end of the video).. So i don't think they can be racist.

Fugazi are not/were not racist. Ian MacKaye is not/was not racist, nor was his first band Minor Threat. Okay? It's REALLY not even a discussion.

This was fantastic to see! Thank you for sharing.
I live in El Paso, Texas and they were one of the few bands that always stopped here on their tours. And they only charged $5 for the show!
I have a lot of respect for them because of that. They chose to keep the price of their tickets afforadable so EVERYONE can enjoy, together.
Down to earth musicians are the best!

It probably has to do with ian writing Guilty of Being White and the fact he shaves his head. However the accusations are bullshit.

I spoke with Ian on one occasion at Gilman St, I'd guess around 88 or 89 and I'd have to say that he was one of the nicest and most genuine people I have met to this day.
