RIP BOB

25 years ago today, Bob Stinson died. He was single-handedly responsible for starting The Replacements. If it wasn’t for him, nobody would ever know who Paul Westerberg was. 

He was a man child. If you read the brilliant Trouble Boys by Bob Mehr, you’ll wonder how he made it to age 34.  

He was a genius. An awful, awful genius. 

Here he is a million years ago.
