About Me
Sir David James Minehan...the name means one thing: Raawwk!!!! Why the regal title? Well, this cat deserves it. Sir David is a legendary figure in the history of Boston rock, having founded one of the hardest working and longest lasting bands of the punk/new wave era, The Neighborhoods. Equal parts punk, pop, mod, and straight-ahead rock, the 'Hoods, like their frequent touring partners The Ramones, helped to define the blueprint for a generation of bands that would eventually take this recipe to the top of the charts. The 'Hoods were a blistering and relentless live band, and their recorded legacy has stood up well in the years since their demise. Being one of the architects of that distinctive Boston garage-rock aesthetic would have been enough for most people, but following the break-up of The 'Hoods, David continued to make his mark. He took the lead guitar spot in Paul Westerberg's post-Replacements band (imagine The Replacements with chops...yeah, they were THAT good), and even subbed for an AWOL Aerosmith member on a tour of Japan. These days, however, he brings the rock from the other side of the glass, as a producer and owner of Woolly Mammoth Sound, where some of Oblivious was recorded. David brings the same driving work ethic to recording that he does to performing, and doing a web search on his name will produce scores of underground bands who boast having an album "produced by the legendary David Minehan." As a testament to this talent, David has been named Producer of the Year at the Boston Music Awards for two years running. If asked, David would say hes "semi-retired" from playing, but the lead guitar he contributes to Oblivious provides ample evidence that David still rocks like we all wish we could. The Neighborhoods were inducted into the Boston Music Hall of Fame in 2005, and have recently played a handful of reunion shows. Check out thehoodsonline.com for more info on the band. - Michael Giblin, Parallax Project; parallaxproject.comNOTE: Your best bet to get a hold of David, Lee or anyone affiliated with the band is to leave a comment instead of an e-mail. Due to the high volume of e-mails this page recieves, there is not enough time in the world to read them all. I DO know that the band occasionally checks out the page.
