As the story goes, they had just gotten in trouble for using profanity on live television. (Approaching the solo on "Bastards of Young," Westerberg turns to Bob and says, "C'mon, fucker!") So when Paul walks away, Tommy takes the opportunity to step to the mic for a sarcastic "Darn it!"

I wish you fuckers would kiss me on the darn bus.
Ha! Seriously though, I just watched this again, and it reaffirms my belief that the Replacements were untouchable in their prime.
Their performance reminds me of the Beatles' first appearance on Sullivan. They know they've got the goods, and they're oozing that "fuck you" cool.
Damn.
