Added a few more print notices for early Hüsker Dü shows (1980-1982)
while reviewing club listings in archived Minnesota newspapers. Some
previously unlisted gigs were discovered during the process. These were
added to the dates page and are flagged in the
list below:
12 Apr 1980: Duffy's, Minneapolis (previously unlisted date) 17-18 Apr 1980: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis (club listing) 31 Dec 1980: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis ("BestBet" selection) 14 Mar 1981: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis (club listing) 15 Aug 1981: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis (club listing) 05 Sep 1981: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis ("Critic's Choice" selection) 31 Oct 1981: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis ("Weekend" roundup of Halloween shows)) 31 Oct 1981: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis (club listing) 12 Dec 1981: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis (previously unlisted date) 14 Dec 1981 Duffy's, Minneapolis (club listing) 31 Dec 1981: Goofy's Upper Deck, Minneapolis (club listing) 14 May 1982: 7th St Entry, Minneapolis (club listing) 24 May 1982: First Ave, Minneapolis (previously unlisted date) 16 Oct 1982: First Ave, Minneapolis (club listing) |
| 01 Apr 2026 | Corrected an error on the dates page: the Hüsker Dü shows at Duffy's in Minneapolis that had long been tentatively dated to 28-29 Mar 1981 have now been determined to have occurred in 1980. Those tentative dates were based on this flyer, which does not mention the year or days of the week, but is described at its source, the Minnesota Historical Society Hüsker Dü collection, as being from "1981-1982." Correspondent Jason Wittenberg, however, recently discovered this print ad in an archived issue of the Twin Cities Reader from March 1980 that provides firm evidence of the correct year. A survey of club listings in the Minneapolis Star archives did not turn up any future-year shows with the same dates, venue, and lineup (which would be quite a coincidence). Added the newly unearthed print ad and the previously misdated flyer to the 1980 poster index page. |
| 08 Mar 2026 | Added an entry to the annotated discography for the various artists 2xCD compilation Jon Savage's 1986-1990: Rollin' Under The Melody, which includes a Hüsker Dü track and was released last summer on ace records (UK). Updated the summary discography. |
| 07 Mar 2026 | Added an entry to the annotated discography for the newest UltraBomb digital single, No Cap, released yesterday, and updated the summary discography. |
