Harry Dean Stanton Fest 12 is excited to present Tommy Stinson and Mydolls at The Green Lantern!Doors at 7, Show at 8

On January 18, 1986, Harry Dean Stanton hosted an episode of Saturday Night Live with musical guests The Replacements. On July 13, 2024, Replacements bassist Tommy Stinson (also of Guns N' Roses and Bash & Pop) will be a musical guest at Harry Dean Stanton Fest, playing some tunes and sharing some stories. Considering that their shared episode ultimately earned The 'Mats a lifetime ban (which legendarily had more than a little something to do with backstage hijinks) it sounds like he has some epic ones to tell!
Harry also shared the screen in the 1980s with iconic Houston band, Mydolls, in a pivotal scene in PARIS, TEXAS. This women-led group has been recognized by Contemporary Art Museum Houston, Lawndale Art Center, Houston Press Music Hall of Fame, and most recently by University of Houston Special Collections for the band's 40--year advocacy of equality, female empowerment, and minority representation in the arts. One of Houston's earliest punk bands, Mydolls has created a DIY sound that is as ethereal, fluid, and poetic as it is politically charged and feminist.
