The estranged songwriters of Husker Du reunited onstage Thursday in Minneapolis as part of a benefit for Soul Asylum bassist Karl Mueller, who was diagnosed with throat cancer last spring. Bob Mould and Grant Hart played a pair of Husker Du songs, "Hardly Getting Over It" and -- ironically enough -- "Never Talking to You Again" in their first performance together in sixteen years.
In 1988 Husker Du had an acrimonious breakup over songwriting credits and the band's musical direction, shortly after they made the jump from an indie label to Warner Bros., with drummer Hart and guitarist Mould rarely speaking and taking shots at each other in the press over the years. Bassist Greg Norton now runs a restaurant outside of Minneapolis, but did not participate in the reunion.
Looks like a one-off. But, the Pixies reunited, so why not Husker Du?
