Additional information
Played a lot during the 2000 tour.
Live
While believed to have only been played once outside of 2000, Minimum was played very often throughout the year. Minimum was often played as the second last song on the setlists, before Showbiz closed the show. The song made only the occasional appearance between January and April before being played at nearly every gig between May and July. After the Summer Sonic gigs in early August, the song did not make an appearance for the remainder of the tour. Minimum was played the second-most out of any Showbiz B-side during 2000.
Trivia
At 2:31, a telephone can be heard ringing.
On August 27th, 2022, in response to a question from a fan on Twitter asking if Minimum should be brought back (into the live setlists) Matt responded with "Forgot that riff, not a bad idea"[1]
