@JimiHendrixreal that's Michael Stipe. He isn't bald, he shaves his head.

[@lolsugar7408]

Bass player Mike Mills always impresses. Great, solid playing, good backing vocal support. He was the foundation upon which REM was built

[@macktravels68]

totally agree!! One of my favorites in music.

[@lorebern6538]

REM's John Paul Jones

[@mooner2410]

He's a solid Journeyman Musician..

Mills is always killing it

90s is a Dark transitioning decade but REM maintained its free spirited style ❤❤❤

I don't about that but they kicked ass in Knoxville Tn. Terry

[@Rasmus186]

This song is magic. But not every song can be played live, with the same magic result.

[@rftulie]

Dig the kids at the end. I'm 65 and I'd probably act the same way if I got to meet Michael.

[@ivanabonacicdoric3448]

[@artosborne4187]

You can tell how much the kids' comments meant to him. Also, Peter Buck is possibly the coolest man on the planet. Love how he plays with the open strings!

[@Duxydogs]

……the dinosaurs on PB’s amp are always there, go go Godzilla

[@marvinthemaniac7698]

He revolutionized alternative rock by playing arpeggios instead of traditional block chords on guitar.

Loved the interplay with the two boys at the end of the song. Love these little touches that only happen at live shows. REM was the best. Glad to have access to all these great memories.

[@jaggass]

Around the mid 2000's Stipey started to sing the first 2 choruses of Imitation Of Life in a lower register as he found it difficult to sing like the studio version live.

[@Schmidtelpunkt]

Glad he did - autotune is like cosmetic surgery for the voice.

[@RC-fi8nn]

It kind of works, as there's a pay off when he sings the last choruses like the record.

[@jaggass]

@@RC-fi8nn It adds a bit of suspense too. I love all version of Imitation Of Life.

Michael Stipe proves a great rock singer can have lower register, but admittedly it's rare. Peter Buck, subtle guitar mastery

The mix engineer for this concert was not so good. Its basically unplugged.

2008 I think. It was promoting Accelerate and I don't think they did any live shows afterwards.
