When It shows up on winmx, I am definitely gonna download it, as well as the new york one. They were both amazing, very diffferent set lists and stuff

Mmmmmmmmmmm....REM sleep....
Ohh, sorry, wrong thread.

Two great concerts.
New York had the advantage of being section 1 row 2, so we were basically being sweated on, and Michael Stipe waved to my friend Jon.
Boston had the advantage of Michael Stipe engaging with the crowd much more then he did in NYC.
I think, objectively speaking, Boston was a better concert. But NYC was a more thrilling concert because of how close we were.

Outside of Exhuming McCarthy, the show last night was the best of the 4 I've gone to (1 during Monster, and 2 during up).
But man, was it cold!
Sorry I missed you guys, we got to our seats just before REM started, so I didn't have a chance to head over your way.

Monster's still the only tour I've seen.
At least I got to see it from the foot of the stage.

Once again, my brother misinforms you all. SIgh. Stipe had come to our side of the stage in the intro to a song, so Jon and I reached out to him, and he waved back at us... it was awesome! best moment of life?

Bok, you don't like exhuming mcarthy? I think its a great song, and they did a good job with it

I had 3 very musical people (including my girlfriend, who has relative pitch), and they were cringing the entire time, they were so out of key (Mills' and Stipe's voices with the guitars)... And there were more than a couple times that I noticed they were off by a lot (and I'm usually very forgiving/oblivious, and don't dismiss atonal music out of hand ).
It is one of my favorites of that album.
I will say that, compared to the Up tour, At My Most Beautiful was awesome... And that isn't an easy song for the harmonies.
