Twenty years after their final show, the spirit of Fugazi returns to Popstage 013 in Tilburg in a way no conventional documentary ever could. “We Are Fugazi from Washington, D.C.” is a raw, 96-minute explosion of energy, pieced together from fan-recorded live footage and rare archival material—curated by Joe Gross, Joseph Pattisall, and Jeff Krulik.
It’s a tribute to one of the most uncompromising live bands in music history. In other words: Finally, not a film in which experts tell how good a band is, but the fans themselves!
Featuring Ian MacKaye, Guy Picciotto, Joe Lally, and Brendan Canty, Fugazi tore through stages with integrity, intensity, and a strict code: all-ages shows, low ticket prices, no stage diving—just pure sound and unfiltered conviction.
This film doesn’t just honor Fugazi—it honors the community that captured them, the moments that slipped through the cracks, and the raw magic of being there.
For longtime followers, it’s a fierce wave of nostalgia.
For newcomers, a revelation.
