R.I.P. Steve Foley

Foley was only in The Replacements for the last year they were together and didn't play on any of their studio albums, but that's still one year longer than anyone I know. I have a bootleg of their last show in 91 and he nails it.

According to Billboard, "Paul Westerberg and bassist Tommy Stinson bumped into Foley at a local bar and procured a ride from him to an audition. In the car was a copy of the brand new Replacements album 'All Shook Down,' prompting Westerberg and Stinson to look at each other and then exclaim to Foley, 'You're already in.'"

That's how it's done.
