Not quite Bono changing shoes during IWF in Berlin 2005 lol...perhaps Berlin just has a knack of making rock stars feel the need to change their footwear?
Not much to say about this concert - 2 hours of fun. I've seen better R.E.M. gigs but after all it was a great show, an amazing location, just beautiful and Michael seemed to be quite impressed...
I realised once more that the guitar solo in Country feedback is one of those things that you should have experienced before you die: One of those perfect moments...
I talked to 2 guys who audiotaped the show and another filmer, so torrents will be up soon.
Oh, and I managed to crash my MD-Recorder.
