R.e.m. Breaks Up After 30 Years Options

[Todd Simpson]

Any R.E.M. fans? They are from Athens which is a college town here in Georgia and are sort of home town heroes.
The guitar player (Peter Buck) has played my buddy Matt's show a few times (indieatl.com) with his side projects and is
a really cool guy. I spoke with him several times and he never mentioned breaking up, he said he was working on new material.

I"m not a card carrying crazy fan but I"m sorry to see them call it quits none the less. An honest band with good music. Too few
of those around. I wonder if the downturn in the biz was a big factor.

On a side note, NEVERMIND from NIRVANA is being re-released. Their record label has decided not to sign a new band and instead will spend that money on promoting an album that's 20 years old. A good album but wow, digging in to the back
catalogue instead of signing a new act?
