ONE love, blood, life
I was lucky enough to see R.E.M. in St. Louis this past Tuesday night, thanks to Greg and Blair. They were amazing and they put on a much better show than the last tour. They were all having a great time, getting into it, Michael Stipe even jumped out into the crowd. I've never heard of him really doing that before. I get to see them two more times too.
The setlist:
Begin The Begin
So Fast, So Numb
Animal
Boy In The Well
Exhuming McCarthy
The Outsiders
Electrolite
High Speed Train
Bad Day
Drive
Imitation of Life
I Wanted To Be Wrong
The One I Love
Final Straw
Find The River
Losing My Religion
Walk Unafraid
Life And How To Live It

What's The Frequency, Kenneth?
Leaving New York
Permanent Vacation
I'm Gonna DJ
Man On The Moon
Afterward we went to the side of the theater by the tour buses to meet the band. Scott came out first, and came right to us because Laura, Greg and Blair had met him previously and he remembered them. He even asked for their e-mail!
Peter Buck was next, then Mike Mills. They both signed my copy of their new CD "Around The Sun." I didn;t ask for a picture with them, but I probably could have gotten one.
Soon after, Michael came out. He's so shy and quiet and just really adorable in person. He wouldn't take any pictures with people because there were a lot of us out there, and he was a bit ill. But I was able to give him a few gifts and I asked about the new U2 album. He said "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" is his favorite.
Erin has pictures of me talking to Mike and Michael. I can't wait to see them.
I'll post pics soon, I have to resize them.
