RE: What are you listening to?
I know it's a week after you posted, Rey, but also grew up with R.E.M. Even ventured to Athens to see a girl there and we wound up seeing them playing a smaller gig at some venue...it's been years. I do remember being very NOT impressed and I became the one idiot who didnt like R.E.M. in my high school (was into other music, New Wave mostly and R.E.M. certainly wasnt that). Once in college (read: once I matured), I gradually became a big fan, though, like you, the newer stuff just didnt speak to me, on CD or live. Still a shame to see them hang it up as a band. At least it sounded like their call. Hopefully they broke up on their terms and amicably.
