R.E.M. played at a wedding reception for one of their techs at a bowling alley in Athens last night w/ Bill Berry on drums! A friend of mine has just put some video up. Don't try d/l'ing it quite yet - there are about 30,000 Murmursians trying to, so it's slow as fuck - but he e-mailed it to me, I've seen it, it's great!! :D

Lots of crackle, that's what is on the video. It's just the one song and I've got no idea what it is, you can't make out the vocals. I assume that it's the first track.

This is the set list:

Sitting Still
Rockville (Mike Mills on vocals)
Wolves, Lower
Begin the Begin
The One I Love
Permanent Vacation
Radio Free Europe

Aye she's friendly enough, she seemed very concerned that I was self-medicating with ibuprofen and booze in London :P Unless that was part of a cunning plot to do away with me :surprise: ;)
