Minutemen
Summary: The Minutemen were an American punk rock trio from San Pedro, CA, comprised of guitarist/vocalist D Boon and his childhood friend, bassist/vocalist Mike Watt , along with a former high school classmate on drums, George Hurley. The group played funk influenced punk rock music in the early 1980s never finding (or even seeking) much mainstream success, but influencing many subsequent musicians. The group ended when Boon died in an automobile accident in Arizona in December 1985.
