Re: (TV) REM/minutemen version of "see no evil"

Didn't know.  Listened to their first two albums a lot in high school; lost track after that, and didn't know much about 'em personally before seeing the doc.

I don't have that recording for you, but I notice that back in about '85 the
Minutemen seemed to play "See No Evil" in their sets or encores a bit.  I also
see that the Minutemen used to tour back then ('85) some w/ the band 'True
West' as support.  That's the band that Tom produced an album for them.

Mike Watt is a big fan of Television and Richard Hell and the Voidoids and
he's interviewed Richard Hell on his show, Watt from Pedro.  But maybe you
already knew this.

just watched "we jam econo", the minutemen doc.  apparently the last time
they
ever played together (shortly before d. boon's death in december 1985) was
with REM -- the minutemen were opening on tour with REM -- an encore, both
bands together playing "see no evil".

anyone know if there are any recordings of this?  i assume they may have
played this encore more than once.
