But out of 10 REM shows I've been to, this must have been one of the worst! Can't really compare to Scottish crowd at Stirling Castle or 150,000 people in main square in Koeln :)


I saw a torrent of that show on EZ Torrent and I wondered if you were there. I can give you a link if you are interested in a copy (unless you are the taper :twisted: )

St Petersburg show cancelled

Mirrored from R.E.M.hq: After a great night in Tallinn and an all-night journey to St Petersburg in wintry conditions, R.E.M greatly regrets having to cancel the show tonight in St Petersburg. Lengthy delays at the Estonia/Russia border caused our trucks, crew, and gear (sound, lights, instruments, and so forth) to arrive too late to mount the show.

This is the first time since the widely-chronicled 1995 tour that R.E.M. has had to cancel a show, and it is a major disappointment for the band not to be playing this particular city. As Michael and the band told some Russian journalists at the hotel this afternoon, we are obviously sorry for all of the inconvenience this has caused for people who were planning to be there.

I just came back from Hanover. It was my first REM-concert and for sure won't be my last. It was absolutely great. I just can recomment everyone who has the chance to go. You won't regret it.
