Last Friday it was announced that the Replacements would return to 30 Rock to play the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallow on Sept. 9, lifting an NBC ban that followed their infamous Saturday Night Live performance in 1986. Tuesday's appearance on the late night talk show is just four days before the 'Mats play Midway Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 13.

We're celebrating the Replacements' first Twin Cities performance in over 23 years with a countdown of the top 30 'Mats songs starting at 5 p.m. this Saturday, Sept. 13 before the sold out show.
