I think Up is their masterpiece. Its beautiful and warm

I saw rem at twickenham the other week. It was amazing. A real good sing along and dance along. It wasn't pretending to be cutting edge, they played the hits, rocked it, danced and smiled big smiles. We danced and sang and smiled big smiles back at them
genius gig

I saw them a couple of years ago at Werchter-festival. It was very mediocre but then again I'm not that big of a fan.

yeah I love Up too;
well this a special album for me, beacuase I discovered R.e.m. with this album!
and the I discovered the other one..
ah At first I really did't like Accelerate ( the last album) , 'cause I thought it was superficial and quite boring..
Then I saw them live..I must admit that Accelerate sounds really good live!

I did see them. I had to do a little research to make sure--that's how big an impact the show was. Shea Stadium, 18 august 1983. Their show was notable in that the field of the stadium, unlike during songs from Joan Jett and the Police, did not move under the motion of the crowd.

Shit. How many of you weren't even alive then?

Grete 09.12.2008 12:05 PM

at Arena Civica I was on the parterre too, in the field , you know, in the third row ..and I had no problems at all..only when Michael approached the first row..well I had been a little pressed..but nothing serious..
