Thought about that tenuous minutemen connection last night and read a few Mike Watt interviews to reconfirm. Didn't really get much to bolster the, um, case of this thread. Did learn that apparently D. Boon styled his name after E(ric) Bloom.

Blue Oyster Cult's live album "Some Enchanted Evening" is partially recorded at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta, GA 1978.
I'd say there is a pretty decent chance that one or more members of REM 'might' have gone to that show.

Another connection: neither band is Boards of Canada

I was waiting for that one, couldn't figure out how to phrase it myself.
