Friday Video: Color Me INTRIGUED

Obviously this is not actually a music video at all. In fact, the documentary Color Me Obsessed apparently features no actual Replacements music. But it does feature a Ramone, a Kid in the Hall, and lots of other interesting people waxing nostalgic about the ‘Mats, so I’m down. Premiering in the Twin Cities on May 4.

What Were THE INTERNATIONAL ROCK AWARDS?

While looking for Replacements videos on YouTube a while ago, I came across this footage of the band playing “Talent Show” at something called the International Rock Awards. There’s surprisingly little information about the awards–or as I’ll assume they were called, the other IRA–available online. The ‘Mats clip is one of only a handful that showed up during a more thorough YouTube search, and all one can glean from it is that Matt Dillon was in the audience. (Westerberg looks really happy, though.)
