the ‘mats reuniting? kind of? scroll down to the third photo. . . you’ll see tommy stinson and paul westerberg all smiley and laughing. i am crapping my pants right now. here’s from the Buddhead page:
Speaking of Josh Freese, he’s in The Replacements bitch! The band somewhat recently re-united to record a couple songs for the upcoming Replacements boxset that we have huge boners waiting for. Chris Mars doesn’t even play drums anymore… he’s like some cool art world guy or something, so he didn’t play drums on it, but he did cruise by to take this cool picture and field neg vibes from Tommy Stinson.
OH MY GOD! do you think they’ll tour? do you think this is possible? what do you think?
9:57 a.m. — i have sent most everyone i know an annoying e-mail, including the vodo. to me this should be like news on the NY Times and shit. i can’t seem to get my heart to calm down and i have no idea why i’m really freaking out this much. it’s probably because i have convinced myself that The Replacements will tour in support of the boxset. It will be the Bastards of Old Tour and i’ll have to quit my job and follow them around the country, to make up for all the lost time. And even if they don’t tour. the thought of new songs, it’s making my heart race.
10:50 a.m. — jim walsh’s got it now too.
Yeah, this is THE news this morning.
I can’t wait to hear NEW songs! I hope there’s an entire album worth of material! 😉
But a tour? I don’t think we’ll be that lucky. Still, we just might see Tommy & Paul do something together.
If it happens & turns out to be in Mpls only, I am totaly crashing at your place Jodi. I’m OK with sleeping on the floor.
Placemat
*sniff*
I did not get an email. And after all the class announcements from Vodo that I’ve sent you…
waaaahhhhhhhhh
🙂
kelly, i always forget that you’re a paul fan. my bad.
and placemat you can totally crash at Supergenius Headquarters . . . everyone can!
That pic of all three together can’t help but make one grin.
NEW songs! NEW SONGS! Damn, I must hear then NOW!
I KNOW! i am so giddy my hands are shaking and my heart is thudding. . . and i’m in the middle of the a meeting and i can’t even concentrate.
maybe a tour is too much to ask for…but I’ll take an unannounced, sloppy, 3 song set at Lollapalooza.
Yeah, my imagination is working overtime now.
Pffft. You guys are hopeless.
you are just jealous UH because you don’t love any one band and or artist as much as we love, no worship, the ‘mats.
jealousy is not pretty Mr. rain on my parade.
Ahem. I didn’t get an email. Which is just as well. Had I gotten the email I would have had my stroke four hours ago. I managed to get a lot done in that time. Which is good, as I’m now incapacitated.
Hooooooooleeeeeeee fuck. Woo!
i was gonna instant message you on GoogleTalk, but you were gone by the time i got there and then i was off to freaking out again.
OH MY GOD!
