REM 'Crush With Eyeliner' 'End Of The World' Glastonbury 99

[stevierichie]

Yeah a bloody brilliant gig it was , I did indeed feel fine!

[timbosmyth]

i still count this as one of the most life affirming points in my life.... in the midle of a 100,0000 people feeling fine is a pretty cool place!

[logixish]

Waronker is excellent in these gigs. REM should have kept him.

[mozfather]

Sexy

[hecatewoods]

wow- can actually see where i was @ 9:51, sat in the front enclosure, having succeeded in breaking in the second time i tried (had loved rem since i'd heard their first demo played on the radio...) was actually loaned a security pass by mark owen (from take that, no less...!!!), whom i totally failed to recognise, such was my focus on, and joy in, finally getting to see rem live... shared much herbage with said mark & his friends, as a thank-you for facilitating one of the best gigs of my life.

[MrDarknightdriver]

Joey Waronker do a great job in The song "End of the world"

[Kimijun78]

Two of the best REM songs ever! Seeing them sticked was great!

[didiroesler]

isn't peter buck one of the coolest guys on the planet (see 2:20)!!!

[Camden287]

I cant believe this was 10 years ago!

It was one of the best nights of my life!

[vordman]

I was there that night and remember the buzz coming from the tens of thousands gathered in anticipation of REM taking the stage. Can't beat festivals for seeing bands, everybody's so up for it.

[paddyoshea55]

sounds kinda low dude

can you turn it up? barely hear it

[ratbatblue555]

the "monster" album is overlooked.

[Schmidtaa23]

so true... its a great one

[mobilesskwrking999]

great one??? is one of the best !!

[pacifistanarchist]

first time i heard it I couldn't stand the damn thing and put it away for a while. I tried it once again later, this time playing it all the way through and after i was done i played it again. It continues to grow on me with every listen. Funny how that happens sometimes.

[Issicra]

I know what you mean! When I first heard Monster... it was like "Well... I want to like it... but....." It grows on you after a while.

My only problem with Monster is that to many of the songs sound alike. IMO. My fav song is You.

[ayatollahrocknrolla]

crush with eyeliner = overlooked

[loufador]

awesome!

[KerreyTheBitterSugar]

bloody great ^^

[whufcburkett]

Wow! This was my first Glastonbury - this was an awesome set - well, from what I can remember!! ;) Cheers for the post, brought back some mad memories

[rachelb81]

Bloody hell just realised I was actually there...

[alexmengao]

I am smitten

[10elbow]

just one of the best gigs i've been to.... theres got to be something in 100,000 people feeling fine.... yes?

[lunaberry]

I was there!!

[KR4Prez]

stipe looks rly unhealthy here. he's just skin and bone

[blueandwhite01]

He might look unhealthy but he sang one of the fastest songs around while running up and down, having his arm grabbed by about 300 people, jumping off and onto the stage and going mental for 5 minutes. I'm 24 and I'd be gasping for breath after less than half of that!

[Stipeman]

I love R.E.M. and always will

[gomeztheboxer]

remember storming to the front when they kicked off the set with lotus...great weekend...topped off by FLC playin scooby snax on the sunday night......good times

[funkydafunker]

I was at Stirling that year too.

I saw them first in 1989 at Leicester.First date of the Euro Green Tour

[chinamac79]

I was there. 19 years old. Hazy memories, but happy ones!

[czoachallday]

This rendition of "End of the World" is amazing. The other video of them doing it 1989 is horrible. They got a lot better over the years.

[Padre471atc]

was a damn good night, strange to think it was nine years since i was at glastobury/ doing my gcse's

[lntla]

[cfreckna]

michael stipe= one of the best frontmen ever!

End of the World as we Know It=one of the best songs ever

REM @ Glastonbury 99 End Of The World=one of the best performances ever!!!!!!!!

I DO FEEL FINE AFTER WATCHING THIS!!!

[paddy9i99]

@cfreckna

You need to get out more!

[colandymanmotm]

Saw them at Stirling that year absolutely mind blowing. They are simply the best !!!!

[cakesdaniels]

this was the best live gig i have ever seen. brilliant that night and might have had something to do with the countless narcotics i had in me. ahhhhhh them were the days......

[ianp1962]

Was there also...the best REM have ever played live I would say!!!

[lowlandsmatt]

I was there. Had to get pulled out of the crowd as had a bit of a panic attack after smoking!...Also earlier that day, I did my first ever crowdsurf (aged 19 then) during Hole..it was amazing looking back whilst getting carried to the front and seeing the vast crowd!

[funkydafunker]

This is cool as fuck.I have stuff on video but can't upload the darn thing.

Walk Unafraid this gig was awesome as was everything really.Star 69 too.

Thanks
