  2. Was the greatest experience of my young life when I experienced this show at 18. Was amazing. Lasting memory. Real rock and roll.

  4. I was at this show. Anyone else remember how the Replacements took the stage? The lights dimmed and the crowd roared. A moment later four skinny shadows, each with an orange ember from a lit cigarette in his hand, entered from stage right. They walked in single file. The crowd roared louder. The four skinny shadows kept walking, didn't stop, and exited stage left! The crowd roared with laughter. Then they made us wait a few more minutes before returning and playing.

    As a side note, Royal Crescent Mob opened. I never heard of them before this show but I instantly became a huge fan. They put on a raw, hungry, energetic show.
