Are they regulars? The Replacements announce first US tour since 1991
"Back by unpopular demand," says the Minneapolis-based band, in a bit of self-deprecation plastered on its tour poster.
The Replacements are hitting the road again, going on a 12-city, 13-show U.S. tour.
Pollstar says it's being billed as their first run through the country since way back in 1991 (the year "Nevermind" by Nirvana came out, just for some context).
So that's the good news for fans.
The not-as-good-news? No Minnesota shows for the homegrown talent. Though you can take a short road trip to see them play two shows in Chicago (April 29 and 30) or the one in Milwaukee (May 2).
