Oil Can Boyd Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I saw that and it's a shame. I saw him a few times when he was with the Replacements and didn't pay too much attention to him because I was so focused on Westerberg. But a few years later I saw him as a solo act (opening for Son Volt, I think) and he was great. Good songs, great playing, and he was very very funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ih8music Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 By all accounts, one of the nicest guys on the planet. Hoping for the best. I thought his solo work was very, very good. Clever lyrics & great throwback guitar sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNueCUk0HpQ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ih8music Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Chris Mars just posted this on his FB page: "I will be releasing a new song next week dedicated to Bob "Slim" Dunlap and available as a download to benefit him. Stand by for additional details." There have also been various rumors that Paul & Tommy are doing something similar, possibly together. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
