REM for 2011

[weeklymix]

They would be an incredible headliner. Stipe's still got it. Let's get them on the Polo Fields. They would also probably spread the attendance out a bit throughout the fields. Definitely wouldn't be a must-see by every freaking person there. Please sign support below.

That is a giant approval. Wonderful.

their 2008 set at Langerado was just epic. Maybe the closest ive ever been for a headliner at a fest.

[weeklymix]

I just have a feeling we'd get a very incredible version of Mr. Stipe in a Coachella setting.

I'm actually surprised this hasn't happened yet.

I approve of this. Although, I'm not real keen on them as a live band.

Keep the signatures coming! Feel free to post about any other times you've seen them live or whatever else pertaining to the band.

[boarderwoozel3]

In the same boat as Pearl Jam in that it's bound to happen one of these days.

[Boourns]

Hell yes.

Their show at the Hollywood Bowl in 2003 remains one of the best I've ever seen. They have the tunes, the influence, and have never played.

Friday night headliner to get the festival going.

[sbessiso]

this thread inspired me to put on their last release, Accelerate. Totally underrated album

[weeklymix]

mehh saw them live mehh

I don't see how this is possible. I understand not liking the music but the energy live is out of control. In what setting did you see them?

Salah, agreed. I've been listening to Automatic for the People on repeat lately.

[Bendulum]

Yes!!
They Played Sasquatch in 2008 -- in the POURING rain -- and still played a stellar set. Lots of energy, and quite a tight band when playing live, even without Bill Berry. Accelerate, the track, was one of the hightlights, as was the live version of Walk Unafraid.

[GuyInTucson]

How could anyone NOT co-sign for REM?

I'm so for this.

[magmazing]

I enjoyed their set at Sasquatch 2008
