Written on the way home
What people wrote about nights here
R.E.M. fan on R.E.M. · Fri, 15 Nov 1985
This was while ago, however one of the things I recall was that the opening act, 10,000 maniacs, was having a sound issue with, I believe, a mandolin, and the crowd started booing. Michael Stipe when he got on stage basically said that after that performance they would look for a new opening act. Per wikipedia the maniacs lasted 4 more shows. I still like the maniacs performance-save for the mandolin. Regarding REM they sounded great and being a newer fan I got to hear all the songs that I knew.

Ani DiFranco fan 80% on Ani DiFranco · Tue, 21 Oct 2014
Ani can still put on a great show with that energy that we all know and love. Things are certainly more personal and, while there may be some that prefer that angry younger Ani, I for one have a great appreciation for her newer songs. I guess those pistols just make it easy to see who has grown and matured in their life and who has not. Keep doing your thing, Ani!
