Split up!!

"To our Fans and Friends: As R.E.M., and as lifelong friends and co-conspirators, we have decided to call it a day as a band. We walk away with a great sense of gratitude, of finality, and of astonishment at all we have accomplished. To anyone who ever felt touched by our music, our deepest thanks for listening." R.E.M. "

A band I have loved for years. I must be getting old :)

Don't fret.
EVERYBODY HURTS SOMETIMES. But THE END must come no matter how many times someone says LET'S STAY TOGETHER.

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Jeez they must be a good age now? There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth from Dave fanning on 2fm earlier.

New ones on me and I have 18 of their albums, but I'll check in case I missed some of them.

They were a class act....

Love Country Feedback and Find the River :D

Let's hope they do a Crowded House on it and we'll have another 10 years of farewell gigs :up:

LOL lets hope so!

Find the River... Brilliant tune, in fact of their best album too IMO, Automatic for the People.

I bet we get years of "Best of" albums now.
