Anyone else go to see REM in DC last night. The first sentence of his lecture "I will not look at you!" was classic REM at his best. What a freaking goofball. 1500+ archidorks in one room...quite scary.
I saw Stipe play a song with Radiohead at the 9:30 Club in DC. Blur opened. Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston were there as their initial romance took off. Man I'm getting old.
Damn. I went to see REM at yewklah, and didn't get in, partially because Brad Pitt, Martha Stewart and Diane Keaton were hogging the best seats and signing autographs. Or so I was told.
Yeah I was there too. "I will not look at you, I'm used to speaking in the dark" haha.
Some of his topics from that night I wrote about in the thread "OMA proposal for rotating tower"
What about the dumb hick that interrupted him in the middle of his lecture to tell him he couldn't hear. I mean, there were about 800 better ways to deal with the situation than standing up in the middle of a 1500 person lecture and interupting the speaker. You could feel the collective cringe.....
i saw rem for two bucks in 1982 at second story in bloomington, also peter buck was "dating" my best friends ex for awhile. i don't know who rem is dating...
I thought REM's robotic response to the "hick" was great. "Well, do you have the solution for this?" The comedic value of the whole event was worth my 15 dollar ticket.
