1980s Hardcore Minneapolis Punk Band Camera Negative Hüsker Dü Live @ First Ave.

Description

Grapefruit Moon Gallery is offering a compelling archive of never-before-seen 35MM camera negatives and prints taken in the early 1980s chronicling the Minneapolis punk rock and hardcore scene. The photographer was Tim Schuck, a 1980 graduate of Marshall University High School and classmate of Daniel Murphy, founder and co-owner of Grapefruit Moon Gallery.  These images have never been published and until recently they have been in storage unseen and unknown. Schuck shot many rolls of images of Husker Dü, The Replacements and other local and national rock & roll, punk, and hardcore bands. He is best known as the photographer of the now iconic Grain Belt Beer shot of the Replacements taken at Hum's Liquor store on 22nd and Lyndale in Minneapolis.

Pictured from the side stage, performing live in The Main Room at First Avenue, is the power trio Husker Du. Band leader Bob Mould is pictured rocking onstage during their performance. Husker Du toured incessantly during the 1980s wearing out seemingly numerous vans and panel trucks.
