The Replacements Are Going To Tour!
The Replacements have taken the last 25 years off. Where will they be heading to celebrate a few gigs together?
The Replacements are taking their first road trip in about 25 years. The band announced plans to go ahead and kick off a full-fledged reunion tour April 9th in Seattle. The 13-stop "tour" will be the band's first extensive outing in 24 years. They got back together in 2013, and since then have played a handful of one-off shows and festival gigs. The Replacements haven't released a new album since 1990's "All Shook Down," but last year frontman Paul Westerberg told "Rolling Stone" they've been writing new songs and will "likely" put a new album together at some point.
