If you're looking to kill some time over this holiday break, have a look at this gem - the Replacements live in Minneapolis in September 1981. Not just one song, but their entire set! Thanks to Slicing Up Eyeballs for the tip. Use the left/right arrows below to skim thru the set.

Cool - thanks for this - had not seen that before. Somehow the 7th Street Entry looks bigger on film - it's a closet really.
Have you seen this book that came out earlier this fall yet?

I haven't picked it up YET but I did skim a copy and it looks pretty interesting - lots of Mpls. music history in there...something I should know a bit more about I guess.
Happy New Year to you Mrs. Karate Boogaloo!
I've been to 7th St Entry and it is tiny. And I picked that book up just a few weeks ago...it's in my "to read" pile. You should definitely read it.
About the time you were replying to my comment here, I was at Barnes & Noble picking up my copy. I had a gift card for there from Xmas so I figured since it was fresh in mind I should pick up a copy. I also picked up "And Party Every Day - The Story of Casablanca Records" (recently released) and "American Gangster and other tales of New York" by Mark Jacobson (2007.)
Blasted through the 'Mats book on Thursday afternoon/evening and part of yesterday. It's a GREAT read - I think you're gonna enjoy it alot.
You'll have to tell me how the Casablanca book is. Are you on goodreads.com?
I am now - I got your email and signed up this AM - have not taken much time to check it out but I will tweak my page and add some books/profile information at some point later in the week or maybe next weekend.
Thanks for the recommendation - it looks pretty cool. (PS - I'm on there as Nycdreamin)
