It's been a long time since the Replacements have played at 30 Rockefeller Plaza. 30 years ago, the Minneapolis alt-rock troupe got themselves banned from the NBC soundstages after a raucous Saturday Night Live performance that involved a lot of alcohol and not a lot of remembering lyrics.

Well, last night (September 9), the band made a triumphant return to the building as the musical guests on The Tonight Show. Watch the reunited group storm the studio (much to host Jimmy Fallon's delight) to perform classic single "Alex Chilton" below.
