For a week in September of 1981 Twin:Tone Records took over this recently started small stage at First Avenue, back before it was legendary, and did a show that helped start the legend. This film was only shown once before, for sound Unseen '07 and likely not to be screened again for 20 years, so this a rare chance to see it in movie theater gloriousness.

This film captures bands like the Replacements and Hüsker Dü in their beginnings. A rare chance to relive being in the room when it was dirty and dangerous. The film also captures groups like Things That Fall Down, and the Hypstrz, that never found commercial success but had a massive impact on bands that did.
