A few highlights:
-- A fairly long set for this tour, if I'm not mistaken.
-- In Animal, MJS is doing these fun Hip-Hop moves and accentuating
"roof top baby" in a way that blew me away. Really very, very strong.
-- The Outsiders was very, very good live; Peter really seemed to be
enjoying the strong groove of that song.
-- Imitation, MJS said the band would have to help him with the high
notes in the chorus, cuz he was still full from Thanksgiving.
-- They said they have not played Great Beyond in a while (clearly the
last tour) and they worked it up in soundcheck
-- Life and How to Live was simply full-out intense. Band rocked very
hard.
-- Michael added some nice harmonies in the VERSES of Rockville, and
Mike was spot on, as they say in the U.K.

 just got back as well, having waited outside afterward in hopes of
catching the guys on their way out. No such luck-- Peter came out
briefly to sign autographs (at a *DifFerEnt* gate from the one I'd
been waiting at!) and Mike and Michael stealthly left soon afterward
in black SUVs. Damn, damn, damn. I was looking forward to chatting
with at least one of the guys.
I agree with dsobel that it was a fantastic show-- which surprised me
considering the size, energy level, average age, and (yes) tendency
toward conservative leanings of the crowd (out near the aforementioned
gate I met a classy guy who let me know right away that he "didn't
know about the guy's [Michael's] politics and intended to ask him just
what his solution was to religious terrorism). And yes, the crowd was
small, and yes, many of the people near me sat down a lot and stared
off into space or looked more interested in the security removing
people from the centre isle than the band. But I fully intended on
giving as much energy back to the band as I could muster up in my
little body. I let loose and really, really got into it, and it was
sublime. 
The crowd seemed to pick up their energy levels a bit right around
Drive. Mike gave us another great performance of Rockville, minus the
hat.
And just as dsobel mentioned, the band was in fantastic form. Stipe in
particular seemed much more open than in Calgary, though noticably
tactful and vague in his song intoductions, especially where political
sentiments were involved. No summersaults or other gynmnastics at the
end, but the energy seemed pretty good.
Michael began to tell a story about the SLC airport, but cut it off
saying that he'd post it instead on "the website" sometime this week.
After the last song he pulled a bag of what looked like candy out of
somewhere and tossed them out to the crowd. Like being at a parade,
but the band was't marching. 
The megaphone onstage didn't get used, despite my best hopes.
And Cuyahoga-- who can complain about that? 
SLC being my last show of this tour, I'm feeling content and full of
energy. REM fed fantastic energy to (in my opinion) a most unlikely
crowd and managed to close the circut.

Charlie Mars was good and he got a good reaction from the crowd. About
half was through the Charlie Mars set, a man came and sat right next
to me. I thought I recognized him, but wasn't sure. Then I saw he had
an all-access pass around his neck, and he was singing along with
every word to Charlie. I was pretty sure it was Bertis, but wasn't
positive, so during a song break I just said "Bertis" to see if he
would turn around, and he did! It was him alright. I shook his hand
and said hello, and that was it. After Charlie Mars was done, he
turned around to me, and asked me what I thought of them, and told me
they have been getting a good response at all the shows they've played
at. We talked for about 5 minutes, about the show, and how they didn't
sell much. Bertis said he heard that it may have been because of the
Vote for Change tour, and becuase Utah is such a conservative state,
everyone was pissed. I told him I don't think that had much of an
impact, and he said "Yeah, maybe it's just cuz they don't get played
on the radio." I said perhaps since it's the day after Thanksgiving...
Bertis was really nice. He asked my name, and if I was in the Fan
Club, and I said yes, and he said he'd talk to the club, and have them
send me something. BUT, I forgot, and I've actually been out of the
country for the past 2 years, and I haven't renewed my membership yet!
I feel so stupid!

 Grazie per il link ! Beh, dai , non è niente male!!
A me nn piace molto
Cioè, tipica canzone da live (basta cominciarla e tutti saltano :-) ), 
ma contenuti ben pochi IMHO

Penso che a chiunque ascolti il nostro album arrivi un messaggio
di speranza, se si ascoltano i testi e ci si lascia penetrare dalla
musica. Siamo tutti ottimisti, abbiamo fiducia nella speranza
(e penso che questo venga fuori ascoltando il disco) (Mike Mills)
Giaaaanniiii! Ma come si fa a nn essere ottimiistii?!? (Tonino Guerra)

Perfettamente d'accordo....non riesco proprio a capire come si possa 
sperare che canzoni di questo genere finiscano nel prossimo album...ATS 
è su un altro pianeta. PEr fortuna. Ovviamente tuttto in my opinion.
