HELP WITH TATTOO

Guysss I need a tattoo dedicated of the replacements and I legit would pay someone to help come up with a few ideas for me. All of my tattoos are music oriented and the replacements are my fav band of all time but I’ve been struggling coming up what to get for them.

My favorite albums are Tim or don’t tell a soul. I’m going for a Neo traditional or traditional style, not too big, no lyrics.

I really want something or a message that symbolizes them in an icon of some sort! Possible? DK! Please lmk or share what you have!!

New 'Mats Tribute Band in NYC - just played our first gig!

https://preview.redd.it/2svfbo7tcd2h1.jpg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b06fa6675d6908f023be3be244e0b37096df996b

Wanted to let folks know that we have a new Replacements tribute band here in NYC called "Bastards of Young" - just played our first gig last weekend in Manhattan.

I know there is also a great new act in Jersey called Ashtray Floors, and there was another project to put something together here in the city -- looks like we have a mini-revival of Mats bands happening!

a clip of our eponymous tune:

bastards of young - bastards of young

Next show is Thursday, June 25 at The Gutter in Williamsburg!

(gotten our website up and working and will send stuff out to mailing list soon about the show once we finalize set time)

Setlist from the debut show: Bastards of Young - Swingin' Party - Can't Hardly Wait - I Will Dare - Achin' to Be - Unsatisfied - Color Me Impressed - Here Comes a Regular - Alex Chilton - Left of the Dial - Bastards of Young (again)

vintage merch

trying to find genuine vintage merch from the band is IMPOSSIBLE…i’ve seen only a handful IF that of real listings on ebay/other reseller sites but shirts are selling for over $300. which i completely understand because they didn’t print a lot of merch and only did so in their later years but MAN it just sucks. i get resellers have to make a profit on these rarer pieces but damn as an actual diehard fan it’d be awesome to get my hands on a genuine vtg piece or even a vintage bootleg without going completely broke 😭
