Dennes Dale Boon (April 1, 1958 – December 22, 1985), also known as D. Boon, was an American musician, best as the guitarist, singer and songwriter of the punk rock trio Minutemen (formed by previous members of The Reactionaries).
He was born on April 1, 1958, in San Pedro, California, and formed Minutemen in 1980 with bassist Mike Watt and drummer George Hurley. Minutemen were known for their politically-charged lyrics and energetic, fast-paced music, and they released several influential records during their career.
