Great show in the pouring rain last night! Michael and the boys pulled out some old songs to warm up the crowd: 1,000,000, Cuyahoga, Little America, So. Central Rain (how appropriate). They certainly rocked it all evening. Thanks guys!
Was lucky enough to see Michael walking around downtown Helsinki before the show. Shook his hand and thanked him for the years of great music. He said thanks and bring a rain jacket.
Next stop Tallinn!
and I thought I was lucky getting high five during "The One I Love" ... but meeting him accidentally is even better. Wonder you recognised him and didn't think something like "this guy looks like Michael Stipe" and leave it like that :-)
A great show with a wonderful setlist. Can't remember the last time I had so much fun standing outside in the pouring rain.
Great gig, great athmosphere, simply A GREAT BAND. Despite the awful weather I really enjoyed their performance.
And what a setlist; Find The River, Cuyahoga and of course The One I Love, Orange Crush and many more. Absolutely brilliant. Hope they come back soon.
You forgot "Man sized wreath" from the setlist. It was played after "Circus envy".
yea and they played hollow man too.
Thank you guys, I added Man Sized Wreath and Hollow Man to the list. Seems like you really enjoyed the show :-)
hi guy.
litle america and circus envy were played in Prague, it s not new
the gig was amazing! better than the new york gig in june. i wasn't expecting much mainly due to the absolutely awful weather but i was just smiling through the whole gig. i was dressed to the occation with rubber boots, rain coat and rain trousers.
btw editors were on stage for the end of the world as well.
i must say that it is absolutely insane that peter's guitar got stolen from the stage! how can that happen?! i sincerely hope that they catch the bastard who did that or at least get the guitar back!
one thing i'd like to add is that cuyahoga was played because it was requested by editors. well that's what michael said during the introduction.
i'm still amazed that i got to hear that. it's my second favourite r.e.m song after driver 8. now i've heard them both!
I feel so sad for Peter's guitar. I enjoyed the gig sooo much despite the bad weather. I hope the band didn't get the "wrong picture" of Finland now... It's been a bad, bad day. I truly hope that the rickenbacker returns!!
Hello folks!
Last tuesday's R.E.M. concert was a very special event for me and specially for my 12 years old Rasmus son. I gave him as a birthday present this ticket for this show. The hole summer he was eagerly waiting to see our fav's at stage.
We were well equipped because of the chilly and rainy evening. Weather was at the end a good thing. We were all struggling against that lousy enemy! R.E.M. was in absolutely great mood and played the best concert of the season. (I've seen Bruce, Neil, R.Thompson etc) this year.
One tiny and special note. Just before leaving to Gig we played one more song at home. That was Cuyahoga. I told Rasmus that we won't be hearing that one tonite. But as our suprise we did! That was one the truly highlight of that wonderful evening.
