Concert #2

Last night Chris and I (here we are again, this time I'm sporting a new hairdo) went to Redrocks again to see REM. This time we brought friends! Leslie & Tara came with us to get their own REM fix! (Be sure to check their blogs to get their version of this event!)
They had two opening acts. The National and Modest Mouse. Here we are with the lead singer of The National. Aren't we just so ROCK STAR??? Both bands did great! Check them out!

Then Michael Stipe and the boys came out. WOOOHOOO!
Michael Stipe has such a great stage presence! I love his voice and he dances like no one else. He gave an Obama shout out (which the crowd loved... me included) and we had pretty good seats. It would have been perfect if I could have emailed the play list beforehand so that I could hear all the songs I wanted to hear. I would say they only played 5 or 6 of their old songs. They played for not quite 2 hours and it was mostly their new stuff, not that it was bad, just not what I was there for. Here's video of Man on the Moon and Losing My Religion... (also not my favorites, but the best videos I had) Now we count down to Coldplay! :)
