This was another show with Christine. Her favourite band at the time was REM.
Looking back now, I am glad I saw them before the illness and fame and age
changed the dynamic of the band. I do wish I had seen them earlier before they
were a huge MTV band. Most notable is that Christine and I waited outside the
Amphitheate to see if we could get autographs. We both got to see
Michael Stipe. What a great time we had! This may have been the start
of my staying after shows trying to get autographs.
I never was the big REM fan. Especially when he acts like a big tree hugger and then came out with a box set made completely out of wood? Yeah! How many trees did that take?
