Just picked up my copy at Main Street Music in Manayunk, PA as soon as they opened. They said the cardboard dolls were supposed to be for album sales but they hooked me up anyway. Super cool store. Also check out the PTMM poster on the wall!!
Tried posting the pics but it won’t let me from my phone camera roll. Says files too big! If anyone knows how to post pics let me know and I will try

Cool. Tommy Stinson and I share one thing in common . . . an October 6th birthday.
For our birthdays, I'm going to see if I can find this on CD somewhere and then blast it on my car stereo. I'll be playing Bash and Pop's Anything Can Happen between now and then.
I don't know how to post photos properly either (probably user error on my part). I made a photo of a Replacements' box set poster in a record store window right over a dumpster my avatar photo so people could see it.

Hey my bday too Volcano! Had no idea it was Tommy's too. Happy Birthday all around with new Mats release. Waiting for mine to arrive in the mail.
Pat - You lucky dog! I did a jackass move a couple days ago and sent a Linkedin message to the president of Rhino and asked for promo stuff. Predictably, no response.

I'm back. I didn't even realize the store I was going to would have the promo stuff. I got the 2-CD set, two matchbooks, two stickers (Rock Like Murder The Replacements), and a cardboard thing with cutouts/stands for each of the four members. Also, I got one postcard (band photo). OK - got my avatar photo to be a photo of the cardboard cutouts of Paul and Tommy (was going to put multiple items but they'd all be tiny in the photo . . . nice gloves, Paul). Edit: I went back to an old photobucket account I haven't used in years, added photos, and will attempt to link them here . . . let's see if this works when I hit "Save Changes"     Edit of the edit: I'm gonna say it didn't work. |

Dammit I ordered it (LPs) on Amazon. Don't suppose there's any chance it'll have the dolls and stuff in the package, right?

I Got the matchbook, sticker, and ticket replica but the store didn't have the record! Hoping I can get the poster, postcard and cutouts somewhere.

Just got back from Amoeba in Hollywood. They were already out of the vinyl when i got there. I bought the CD and then the cashier guy asked me if i wanted the cut out, so of course i said yes. I am sooo stupid, i should have asked for a second one , he probably wouldve given it to me.

I had pre-ordered on Amazon. So I drove to local record store to see if I could buy a CD copy for a friend and score some swag. They only had albums :-(
Would've been cool if they surviving members could've autographed a bunch of CDs randomly.....imagine how cool that would've been getting one of those!

Yeah I was really hoping to get some of that cool stuff- matches, door mat, t shirt, cut outs, etc but I am loving the heck out of the record. Such a good show and the sound is awesome.
If anyone ended up with extra swag .. and doesn’t know what to do with it... I’d happily take some off your hands! I didn’t find any around Boston.

I was bummed that the big list of stores participating in swag only included one store in the state of Massachusetts, which was no where near Boston. Oh well. Hope everyone else got good stuff.

i went to the listening party at Amoeba SF. They were sold out of the vinyl. They had a table of the promo merch. No one else was there to care. The employees asked to take a photo of us holding it and gave us whatever we wanted. Walked away with multiples of everything. Only thing we didnt get was the door mat. Drove hours to be there and they were super stoked on us. Got really lucky.

If anyone snagged any extra goods from the new release, let me know if you are up for parting with some? Down to trade. Snagged the double LP in Baltimore and nothing offered and a line behind me ☹️

The stores were sent more swag last week.
My local store had the cut outs and more, but didn't on the original release date

I was at Everyday Music in downtown Portland on the weekend. They had a Replacements Live at Maxwell's doormat. I have made it my avatar.

A Replacements doormat? Replacements dolls? These guys have officially sold out. What is next? Will they have their own pinball machine like Kiss had? Sell outs! I'm not a fan anymore.
Just kidding! I wouldn't mind having the Mats mat. I would love to design the pinball machine too complete with rattlesnake, skyway, and left of the dial bonus. When you win a free game the special light will flash 'happytown.'

This I would bid $795 for...There could be a special "sudden death" channel that immediately drops your ball out of play labeled "Treatment Bound"... |

When you win a free game the special light will flash 'happytown.' Pinball Machine - now yer talking - lets see - four drop targets (each one a member of the band) - Vomit spinner - "Dose of Thunder" Multiball (hit the eight ball for special) - Ramp to the top of their house to enter window and trap ball for "Minneapolis" Multiball - "Bob - Mode" (all targets decrease your score) - "Tommy Mode" (collect all the candy bars) - "Chris Mode" (spell shave and off come your eyebrows) - "Paul Mode" (Spell Lonely to light "If Only" target for Twenty Pushup special)- just a few ideas.... |
