just saw R.E.M. in concert!!
« on: July 08, 2005, 10:19:51 PM »

i just saw R.E.M. in concert at ipswich town football club in england, and they were brilliant!!!!!!they have been doing a worldwide tour for 9 months, and this is one of the last few dates.the zutons and idlewild were supporting, but i missed idlewild, the zutons were ok, but nowhere near as good as r.e.m., michael stipe is an exellent showman, and danced all around the stage, with the bass player. also at the end, he put an ipswich town football club shirt on ;D ;D, which was great!!!they opened with everbody hurts, and get up, and the best songs they played were 'leaving new york, orange crush, losing my religion, nightswimming, the outsiders, and man on the moon(encore)....they were really fantastic!!!

so now ive seen in concert:

the beautiful south
santana
the zutons
R.E.M.
red hot chilli peppers
we will rock you/queen
a girl called eddy

I thought they postponed a lot of their shows because of the terror attack.

Sounds like a great show. I love R.E.M and their music, but Stipe gets on my nerves sometimes.

I saw them in Budapest in january this year. They were great. Hope to see them again sometime, hopefully here in Iceland.

I missed them when they were on the Isle of Wight. I had to go and gig. And I had a backstage pass. Oh well. Same thing happened last week with Suzanne Vega.

Bloody gigs!!! lol....Gotta earn your dough though.
