Her er den forel\u00f8bige liste over hvem der spiller til festivalen Riot Fest, <\/em>der finder sted i Chicago, Denver og Toronto til august og september. Der er en masse bands, jeg gerne ville have h\u00f8rt for 15-20 \u00e5r siden, men ikke n\u00e5ede at f\u00e5 fat i: Public Enemy (de har faktisk optr\u00e5dt i Aalborg, men det gik jeg glip af), Violent Femmes, Guided By Voices, Quicksand, Mission of Burma, Dinosaur Jr., Toots & The Maytals… Meget, meget h\u00f8jt p\u00e5 listen er selvf\u00f8lgelig The Replacements,\u00a0<\/strong>der begik s\u00e5 mange fremragende sange dengang sidst i 1980’erne. SPIN skriver:<\/a><\/p>\n

In a statement, founding bassist Tommy Stinson contended that the band never broke up despite the hiatus. No word yet on who will replace guitarist Slim Dunlap (replacement for original guitarist Bob Stinson), who suffered a debilitating stroke in 2012. In\u00a0June of that year, Stinson let slip<\/a> that he and singer Paul Westerberg were working together on a tribute album \u2014 what later became the auction-based Songs for Slim<\/em><\/a> EP and split 7-inch series. That almost-reunion raised more than $100,000<\/a> to help offset the “considerable challenges” Dunlap and his family continue to face as a result of his condition. According to the band, the connection forged during those sessions inspired band’s return.<\/p>\n

Asked for comment, a spokesperson for Riot Fest couldn’t confirm who would fill the holes in the Replacements’ roster. Aside from Dunlap, surviving members Westerberg, Stinson, and drummer Chris Mars \u2014 who contributed to Songs for Slim, <\/em>but left the band in 1990 \u2014 are presumed to appear. (Founding guitarst Bob Stinson and Mars’ replacement, drummer Steve Foley, are deceased.)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Den 25. august sidder jeg i et fly til Buenos Aires. Et kort \u00f8jeblik har jeg overvejet om jeg skulle tage mig en omvej for at se mine gamle helte Westerberg, Stinson og Mars.<\/p>\n
