    Have you ever seen Tommy live? What's your favorite Tommy project? I'm kinda partial to the first Bash and Pop album and I've always loved the closing tracks, Tiny Pieces and First Steps. So many choice and so many questions.
    Check out Tommy's website and go see a show!

      I was to young to ever see the Mats, but my answer to the question what band do you wish could back in time and see, is always the Replacements, no matter what condition they were in that night.

    Tommy is the living embodiment of rock and roll, but not in a superficial “he looks cool” sense. His body of work, journeyman status and the high regard in which his peers hold him says it all. Great interview, long live Tommy Stinson.

    Man I'm so grateful for you for grabbing this interview. I know Tommy and Peter Buck and some of the other characters through the touring world but I'm a generation below so I always felt walking on pins and needles around them to get the stories cuz one wants to act cool and such. Tommy is a great guy but you got him to open up. I've been an Otis fan for a long time and it continues to pay off.

    You heard it here first! Tommy is so cool. Saw him once with the 'Mats and twice with Perfect. Another great quote from somewhere: Tommy is rock n roll...Keith grew up wanting to be a cowboy but Tommy grew up wanting to be Johnny Thunders. Thank you Otis for putting the whole interview up for us!

    Bob Dylan received the Nobel Prize for Literature, his song writings are a mere example. I was in NYC in 62 and saw and heard about him then, and thought then he was mere Ramblin’ Jack Elliott clone. My judgment was jaded by youth.
    ‘Bringing It All Back Home’, ‘Highway 61’, and ‘Blonde on Blonde’ were as mind opening as reading James Joyce, Allen Ginsberg, and Emily Dickinson; great writing could be found in more than pages of books.
    Both Bob Dylan and Keith Richards are pinnacle icons for the last sixty years of the music scene. Tommy Stinson is an example of what that time in music gave birth to; thank you Otis Gibbs for bring out these stories. ☮

    Great stories! I remember the Replacements playing the Moore Theater here in Seattle. The Young Fresh Fellows opened, and stage security was brutal... nobody could get in pit. After that opening act, the Replacements came on stage, first song, jumped off the stage, saundered pass the pit and played in the audience. Place became unglued and security backed off. We had a Hootenanny 😂

    Thanks Otis. You captured perfectly what it’s like to hang out with Tommy. Real down to earth guy and easy-going conversationalist. I took advantage of a meet-and-greet with Tommy at a solo house show a couple years ago, which was basically hanging out with Tommy, two other people, and chatting for about an hour. I was curious to see what he was like, and your video is pretty much it. We started off talking about music and ended up talking about our aging parents.

    Bash and Pop's 2 records are great. The open G tuning on the first record makes it sound like straight Stones. BUT, Tommy Stinson's greatest song post Replacements is the song "7 days a week" from the band Perfect. Otis, please listen to that song. Sounds like a forgotten five star Replacements song.

      Paul lost him Mom and his son’s Mom in about a 3 day span. Maybe that spurs him to do something. But I think he’s just content to spend his days making music for himself.

    I was living in Minneapolis in the Eighties. I didn't feel Prince was on top. It was more us against them. There were 2 very distinct and extremely different groups. Prince and the Time had a devoted fan base who didn't really want to mix with the rest of us. They seem preoccupied with how they looked while having a "who the f--- are you" attitude. The second group supported all of the other talented musicians. We were live music lovers but we were also out for a good time. Half of a great musical experience is the band and the other half is the crowd. I guess I should have seen Prince at least once but I just didn't want to deal with his people. The other bands respected Prince but when they covered his songs they had some fun at Princes' expense. The Gear Daddies version of Little Red Corvette was hilarious.
