R.E.M.
Friday night I saw The National, Modest Mouse, and R.E.M. at the United Center.
A few notes:
1. The National is amazing. They've got it.
2. Modest Mouse doesn't like to play to the crowd. I left still wanting to hear my favorite songs.
3. Michael Stipes is one of the best performers I've ever seen. R.E.M. felt so real; Stipes forgot the lyrics to a few songs, talked to the crowd, and did the robot, several times. My favorites to hear live were Electrolite, The Great Beyond, and The One I Love.
