That's me in the corner that's me in the spotlight...

"That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight..."

OMG, I touched Michael Stipe, and he looked at me, while singing "Losing My Religion". Not kidding.
I felt like all my guts were collapsing inside of me. :)
Ironically, that was during the line "that was just a dream".
Imagine what it would have been with someone I'm a real fan of.

REM at Rock En Seine festival, Paris.

UGH I missed ALL of REM's set because I was stuck on the opposite side of the park settling PWTs merch! I'm sorry we missed our chance to meet up that day, I'm sure I will be back in Paris within the next six months though :)

I was so sorry :/ I hope you didn't think I forgot you or something. When you called me I was seeing the end of Kaiser Chiefs set and I didn't hear my phone at all. And after REM we had to hurry up to catch the last subway so I couldn't look for you. Sorry again :( Hope I'll see you very soon and that you had a great time in Paris though.

No worries, I'm sure we'll have another chance to meet! I didn't get to see Kaiser Chiefs either, cause they played at the same time as PWTS :( Booooo!

I love REM and Michael Stipe - I saw him on a chat show last week and they had a REM tribute band in the studio - he was just amazed at the lead singer who was his absolute double!

yeah, his eyes were so blue, that was even more disturbing!
the band was really nice, michael was talking all the time and you could see they were happy to be there.
