the hitcher

:laugh3: very good idea!

I was born in 1983 and i remember growing up in the late 80's and 90's. 90's pop music was amazing. The 90's gave birth to some great bands like; Lighthouse Family, Blur, Radiohead, Pulp, Oasis etc... Pop music (chart music) in the 90's was fantastic but as soon as 2000 came round pop music went down the toilet. I hardly ever listen to the radio these days, the chart stuff they play is rubbish, it's not even good music. Call me old fashioned but you can't beat all the 90's classics like Scatman John, Cotton Eyed Joe, Breakfast at Tiffany's etc... Bring the 90's back!!!

Hey Sarah, how are you? Thanks for posting those vids up, that acoustic version of 'Song To Self' sounded amazing :D 24 days to go! :dance: :laugh3:

You should know Chris by now. He said that they wouldn't carry on after A Rush Of Blood.... that was 6 years ago :laugh3: :D Take no notice of Chris :laugh3:

When I seen the pics first time I was like "oh my god he's cut all his hair off" :shocked2: :laugh3: Kinda got used to him having his longish/curly hair since X&Y. If anyone gets to meet him they'll have to ask him why he decided to chop it off :laugh3:

aww i'm sure he'll grow it back, maybe he just fancied a change or as other people have said it was some kind of bet. As long as he can still sing and play, I suppose that's the main thing, the poll is just abit of fun :D If he's still got his hair shaved when you next see him at a gig you'll have to make a sign "we want your locks back" hehe

Shaved Headed Chris is currently winning with 52.94% of the vote. It's been a close one!

I think Chris should shock us all and do a Micheal Stipe and shave it completely off. Now that would be a shocker! :laugh3:

The Mop is winning, interesting to see what everyone thinks :laugh3: I'm personally all for the 'A Rush Of Blood To The Head' hair myself :D

He has to be one of my favourite front men of all time! :D

:laugh3: :laugh3: as long as non of them shave their eyebrows off :laugh3: and get carried away with this shaving lark haha

you can like both :D :D sorry I never put that on the poll did i :cry:

Chris has shaved his head :dance: he looks cool again :laugh3: :D He looked his coolest around the Parachutes/A Rush Of Blood To The Head era and he's lost his curly mop in the recent BBC pictures! Who was a fan of the mop? I wasn't really that keen on the mop I prefare him with shaved head :D Discuss... :laugh3: Vs

awww you got 7 Chinese Brothers too :D I was so made up they played that at Manchester last Sunday :dance: glad you had a good time, Manchester was an amazing night aswell :D

They have been changing the setlist around each night. The setlists have been great on this tour.

How about releasing the line up first! You could pay that money get your ticket and the line up could be rubbish! I don't see why getting a Glastonbury ticket has to be so god damn difficult!

No I was hoping they'd play Sweetness Follows myself one of my favourites aswell. They did walk on to a dance version of Nightswimming tho which was abit weird but cool :laugh3: Here's what they played in Manchester last night (i've copied this from the REM website): 1. Living Well Is The Best Revenge 2. These Days 3. What's The Frequency, Kenneth? 4. Drive 5. Man-Sized Wreath 6. Fall On Me 7. Ignoreland 8. Walk Unafraid 9. Hollow Man 10. I’m Gonna DJ 11. Electrolite 12. Pretty Persuasion 13. The Great Beyond 14. So Fast, So Numb 15. 7 Chinese Bros. 16. The One I Love 17. I’ve Been High 18 Let Me In 19. Horse To Water 20. Bad Day 21. Orange Crush 22. Imitation Of Life 23. Supernatural Superserious 24. Losing My Religion 25. Mr. Richards 26. It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) 27. Man On The Moon My ticket was £45 plus a booking fee which took it up to £50. I agree the ticket prices for this tour have been way too high! Last time I seen them in Manchester in 2005 my ticket cost me £35!

Went to see them last night in Manchester! They were amazing as usual :D the setlist was amazing aswell they played a few old gems which sounded great like Seven Chinese Brothers, Fall On Me, These Days and Pretty Persuation. Third time I've seen them and they are still on top of their game! :D

about time they went down the experimental road they should have done this years ago!

Fran looses his wedding ring during 'Flowers In The Window' at V2008 :laugh3: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=VPgH1SeQpdc

thanks for posting this you're a star! :dance: Really enjoyed watching that, Fran at the end jumping to see the crowd :D Did you think the interviewer was getting a little dig in at Fran at the end tho?

I seen Andy at a gig in Liverpool a few years ago. I think if I remember right it was a Doves gig and he was on the balcony. A few of us spotted him and tried to get his attention but he didn't see us :laugh3: what would you say to Fran if you met him?

awww I'm so happy you got to meet them :D I hope you get to finally meet Fran in London, I've got my fingers crossed for you :D

hehe I love the scotish accent aswell when KT Tunstall speaks I just melt :heart: You're so lucky to have met them. Did you keep it together or were you star struck? I think I'd be totally star struck :laugh3:

Judas is a great song aswell :D
