Oct 9, 2017Just as much as their very best studio work, For Sale is a invigorating, joyous, rollicking summation of a remarkable band on a night when they truly lived up to their legend. If you ever loved the 'Mats, you need to hear this.

Oct 17, 2017This is the Replacements at their finest and their most frustrating.
