R.E.M - Everybody Hurts (Live 8 - Londres, 2005)


Y como dicen en su web oficial, lo mejor está por venir.

LOVE YOU LIMA

Empezamos este blog con las notas publicadas de la llegada de REM a Lima y del concierto del 14 de Noviembre del 2008.

35,000 strong turned out in Lima last night for R.E.M.'s maiden performance in the Peruvian capital at the Lima Hot Festival, which also included superb sets by Travis, Cementerio Club, and Turbopotomas. The band now heads to Venezuela for the Musica Movistar Festival on Sunday in Caracas. Travis, Sonic, and Los Paranoias round out the bill.

A NIGHT FOR HISTORY BOOKS

R.E.M. got to dream on more than 35,000 people...

The legendary band played for the first time in Peru as part of the Lima Hot Festival.

American band REM performed last night in front of 35,000 pp that arrived at the Estadio Nacional surroundings early in the afternoon.

The band from Georgia, the main act at LHF, displayed all their creativity energy around 10 pm with a big lights set up and a 'zero complain' set list.

As achieving all the audience's expectation, Michael Stipe's fronted band played the classic hits "Losing My Religion", "Everybody Hurts", "It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)", etc; which end up to steal the admiring of thousands of fans.

Due this, the attendees were able to walk through along with those rock alternative pioneers with a 28 year old career making a fine selection of memorable albums such as "Document" (1987), "Out of Time" (1991) and "Automatic for the People" (1992).

The band is actually in between a southamerican tour to promote their most recent album, 'Accelerate'. Before arriving Lima, they played in Argentina and Chile.

STARING DOWN THE HOMESTRETCH FROM THE THRILLING CITY OF LIMA
After another long day of flying, the band had a great late night arrival into Lima (see video below). Tonight, R.E.M. plays the Lima Hot Festival in Peru with special guests Travis, Cementerio Club, and Turbopotamos. This marks the band's first concert in Lima, and it should be a really exciting night with a great crowd based on the reception the band has been receiving in Peru's capital. The guys, once again, are looking forward to sharing the stage with Travis (check out their new record "Ode to J. Smith") who played the Frequency Festival in Salzburg with R.E.M. back in August.
