They're getting old the same way we all are.
I got back into REM (a little) with the live album/dvd recorded in Dublin. It shows two things: first, what shite the songs from Around The Sun were, and secondly how powerful a live band they can be with an energy which infects the audience.
Although four of the first five are my favourites (easier to type Fables than to list the other four titles, lazy get that I am) I have to admit a soft spot for Reveal.
I'm Gonna Dj is the worst song ever though.
Pauliebee, see you at Acid Mothers on Wed?
