What is that awesome punk song the band walks on stage to?

I was at the Fine Line in Mpls last night and the band came on stage to a great punk track with big guitar and some chanting. The crowd seemed to know what it was but I forgot to ask someone. Any help appreciated.

I'm not sure if they still do, but I've seen them walk onstage to Hot Water Music's "Trusty Chords".

Just by that description, Hot Water Music? Pure guess though. Bouncing Souls?

That's what I was thinking.

That's how I found HWM from the beginning of a live Gaslight show.

Nice!

Also, your avatar is MY avatar on the Against Me! forum, and my favorite record of all time. Good looks kid.

Haha, before I got into the album "London Calling", I had found Give 'Em Enough Rope on YouTube, and listened to it, so I had to buy it.. and I did. Then checked my families Itunes library for Clash music, and realized my brother bought London Calling and Sandinista! I love Give 'Em Enough Rope.

They've been walking onstage to Sabotage also. But it might have changed at this point

Yup, that's what they opened with for the Euro gigs I went to. No clue what the US gigs are opening with atm.

Assuming it was the same song they used in Portland and Seattle it wasn't HWM or the Souls. But that song sounded more hard rock than punk to me. Don't recall what is was though...

It was "Waiting Room" by Fugazi tonight.

I think I found my answer - Ruby Soho by Rancid. Thanks All!

Get the whole album joking, I'd even say it's the best punk release of the 90's

I was at the Fine Line show too. That is the song they came in to.

What a great song to take the stage to (Waiting Room).....it was perfect for the build up, then them immediately jamming into Great Expectations..loved it.

It's the only Fugazi song I've had on my iPod, ironically, so I knew it immediately.

Waiting Room is the only song of theirs I can get into

Fugazi is another one of my Top 5 of all time in addition to Gaslight. Love it when things like this line up together.

I used to be big into Rancid. Rancid got me into the Clash and then I got into Gaslight..somehow.

You'd probably like "merchandise" if you haven't heard it. I agree with their stuff being hit and miss.

As for Rancid, that record is incredible. Hands down, best bass player in rock music. Not many guys can play well enough to feature a bass rather than have it just being a rhythm instrument.

I love Fugazi. They have a lot of different stuff. Personally I think The Argument is their best record and that was the last one. So if you've only heard one or two, give the others a try.

1-2-3 Repeater!

I feel the same way about Fugazi as I do the Pixies. There are some GREAT songs but a lot of it is just filler. They deserve credit due to being leaders/originators in their scenes, not necessarily for making a ton of excellent songs.

If Fugazi made their first record today they would just be another band on No Idea Records.

Their best album was Argument. It's not my favorite of theirs (I'm a Red Medicine guy) but genuinely think the Argument is their best/most mature.

My English teacher for freshman year was in a band that opened up for Fugazi...
