Fugazi

On February 15, 1991, Fugazi performed live at the Shrine of the Sacred Heart in Washington, D.C., capturing the raw energy of their dynamic stage presence. At this point in their career, the band was riding the wave of acclaim from their critically lauded album, "Repeater," which had been released just a year earlier, in 1990. The album not only solidified their unique post-hardcore sound but also showcased their distinct fusion of punk intensity with thoughtful, socially conscious lyrics. This performance of 'Blueprint' exemplifies Fugazi's ability to engage audiences deeply, marked by their signature DIY ethic and commitment to affordable ticket prices. Interestingly, the band famously included a no-stage setup and encouraged audience interaction, which defined their live shows. This concert is a testament to their innovative approach in the early '90s, setting the stage for many underground artists to follow.
