Brilliant! I was there too, my first R.E.M. gig! And this is such a highlight for me as I actually requested this song by email to REMhq. I know they really played it after another fan bumped into to Peter on the street that day and asked him if they'd play it, but I still like to tell myself my email made the difference! And to think it hadn't been played in 18 years!
Do you have any more from this show? I'd love to relive it. Thank you so much for all your videos, they're all fantastic!
@boomers86 Hi there, I was that fan! I saw them before the show and requested it. (I have evidence from a radio interview a few months after where Peter says Happy Birthday to me and recounts the tale)
I'm first one to view, I'm so proud. Was at this gig too and it was a pleasant surprise that they played a few old favourites. Thanks heidigretal you are my new best friend (whether you like it or not!)
No more R.E.M live shows! Fuck!
