yeah, interesting how he changed the lyrics for the final version. Just saying it myself, "I wish once was me" doesn't seem to roll off the tongue so easily? maybe he also went with "pretty sure..." because it's more concise? I dunno---but I never knew of this version. Or if it someone posted this before, I forgot about it. Also, what does the baby crying mean? How are others interpreting it? Does it mean that the narrator was basically used because the woman wanted a partner just to have a baby? the baby is the only thing to make her happy and she's kicked the narrator to the curb already? I do recall reading somewhere---maybe here?---that the baby crying is actually Johnny. I dunno how true that is, but then again, given that PW disappeared for awhile when Johnny was born, where else was he going to get a soundclip of a crying baby while he was recording stuff in the basement? The baby cry sound effect adds an entirely different context to the entire song, to me.

Watching “The Bear” Season 2 Episode 5 on Hulu (NYC Chef returns to chicago to take over family restaurant after brothers passing.)
Bastards of young plays in background of a scene. Later a character talks to a mother in then background about his favorite Mats albums and mentions the bands name.
Can’t Hardly Wait closes out the episode nice and loud during a kissing scene.

Holy mackerel! I’m guessing this is from the infamous tour with TP and the Heartbreakers, but do you the context of this shot?

^^^^^^^^^^^^
No context, just a pic I have never seen before. I'm assuming it is when they first met before the first show of the tour, after meeting Mike Campbell outside. Petty at the time was sober, so no beer for him. And I guess it was downhill since that meet...

I love their expressions, always. Never not having fun, or just not giving a shit.

Sound recording of Jumpin' Jack Flash from 1986, Chicago. put up on the Replacements you tube channel yesterday Yea I was just checking this out. Almost no bass that I'm hearing. Otherwise pretty rippin'. Great, raw vocal. Not super surprising that Paul isn't enthusiastic about these releases, I wouldn't be either, but as a fan I think it's pretty awesome.

It is supposed to be a board recording, so vocal mics, drum mics (especially snare) and guitar mics are prominent, maybe Stinson's bass was not miked or DI'd., some small clubs will let the bass cabinet just roar on its own, instead of feeding it through the sound system. But yeah, sounds nothing like Maxwells.

The Metro isn't a small "we don't need to run the bass through the PA" kinda club by any means, but I know those rooms well. It is what it is and we shouldn't complain. It's just a stereo recording, with no possibility to mix. They can't turn one thing up and another down. All they have is EQ and mastering tools like compression and widening, which can help for sure, but not save it. The CD might have more bass response than shitty YouTube audio too, and the RSD vinyl that you know will eventually come should be even better than that. xx

In 1986, Cabaret Metro was easily the best sounding venue in town.

Ha, just ran across an old SPIN interview with him that might explain his lack of enthusiasm. His take on Folker - Folker (2004): “Every one of these records makes me think of someone. I thought ‘Jingle’ was kinda good. I can’t remember any of the other songs because they’re s**t. I’ve learned that there’s a reason you don’t remember the ones you’ve forgotten.” www.spin.com/2016/03/paul-westerberg-i-dont-cares-replacements-interview/

This isn't that random but something I stumbled across on YouTube. In 1989, a fan got pulled onstage to play with the band:

Tommy was on Sirius radio on Thursday, talking about the Tim box set and Cowboys in the Campfire new record. Oddly, the few songs they played from Tim were the original mixes, not the Stasium mixes. 🤷
