Welcoming 'Mat

Posted at 2:22 PM on August 21, 2006 by Hans Eisenbeis

Paul Westerberg and Tommy Stinson have reunited again—in a way. No, Paul is not taking over for Slash in Guns N Roses. He scored the soundtrack for the upcoming animated film "Open Season," for which he wrote ten songs. On two of those, he collaborated with co-former-Replacement Tommy Stinson. According to Pitchfork magazine, the movie can be summarized thisaway:

A grizzly bear, Boog (voice of Martin Lawrence), makes friends with a mule-deer, Elliot (Ashton Kutcher).

That doesn’t exactly sound like "Wuthering Heights," but it does sound like an apt metaphor for the putative 'Mats reunion. So but wait. Where's Chris Mars?
