On August 20, 1999, I saw R.E.M. in concert at the New World Music Theater in Tinley Park, IL. The show was INCREDIBLE! It was my first time seeing R.E.M. in concert and I hope I have the chance to see them again very soon! For more details, feel free to read my long and rambling review. Below are some pictures that I took while the band was onstage:

dance moves during Lotus.
