Fugazi — Waiting Room
Played: 2026-04-30 (Segment 5)
Fugazi formed in Washington DC in 1987, with Ian MacKaye and Guy Picciotto as co-vocalists and songwriters. 13 Songs (1988/89) compiled their first two EPs on Dischord Records. "Waiting Room" opens the record and became their best-known song. Fugazi operated independently throughout their career: no merchandise, $5 shows wherever possible, no major label involvement. MacKaye connects this segment back to Minor Threat earlier in the set. Placement: closes the hardcore run before the post-hardcore of Segment 6.
