Music News - Minuit to release final live shows online
19 April 2016 - 0 Comments
In November 2014, NZ band Minuit held their Final Fling with a
series of six rib-rattling shows in Auckland, Wellington, Nelson and
Christchurch. Now they're releasing an 80-minute live video via YouTube
with footage edited from all six shows.
"When we did the final shows, we promised we would film it and
release it sometime in the future," says band member Paul Dodge.
"That sometime is this Friday afternoon. There's shudder and
shake; out of focus and out of time – just like being at
the real gig! But some cool moments got captured. We wanted it to feel as
if you're at one of those shows.”
The video can be viewed for free via YouTube, but conscientious online citizens
are encouraged to visit the band's merch table at BandCamp and 'pay-what-you-like'.
"We want anyone to see it who wants to see it. Then if you feel you want
to pay the price of admission, you can head along to Minuit's
virtual merch table where there's the whole back-catalogue,
remixes, the double vinyl (of the aptly titled Last Night You Saw This Band),
even Ruth's book (I
Felt Like A Fight, Alright?). You could get a gift for a
friend?"
Now before you ask, this doesn't announce a comeback tour.
"We just wanted to make this available. For people who couldn't make it to
the shows. And for those who did. Or anyone who had never seen Minuit play
before. Maybe something for the grandkids, y'know? Get a crew together, find
out who has the best speakers, and turn it up!”
And if you were at one of the final shows?
“Thanks to everyone who was in shot! It was a blast.”
A blast from le past.
The video will go live at 3pm Friday 22 April viathe band's YouTube channel.
