Ian Mackaye's 5 great things from D.C.

from Take 5 · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

I take you back in the Take 5 time machine to 2007, when Ian Mackaye did the Take 5. The frontman for Fugazi, Embrace and Minor Threat, he has been in countless bands and was – at the time – touring with The Evens. In Washington DC he heads up the DIY record label Dischord, started to support the DC bands he loved. Everything Ian does has strong ethics at it’s core. Everything he is, is grounded in his hometown. Across five songs from the capital of America, he takes you on a journey not only through the streets but the politics of this town and punk itself.Bad Brains -  'Banned In D.C.'Rites of Spring - 'Drink Deep'Slant Six - 'Semi-Blue Tile'DJ Eurock - 'This Is DC'Rare Essence - 'Bling Bling Bling'
