Hi R.E.M. fans!!

For some this is the second e-mail, for a lot the first one. Welcome once again to you all! :)

Since July I've received several hundreds of e-mails from people who wanted to know more about us fans touring after R.E.M. during their next European Tour. Reactions have been coming in from all over the world. I've received e-mails from people from over 40 countries! That's the good news.

The 'bad' news is, that where people from R.E.M. were telling us a few months ago that they would be touring Europe again somewhere during summer/fall 2004, the period of time they are mentioning now is '2005'. So we will have to be patient I'm afraid...

But, the plan still stands! So not to worry! In the meantime we are being kept quiet with stuff like In Time (which I received myself about a week ago) and interviews, surprise gigs, the Bad Day video, the upcoming release of the Wiesbaden DVD, etc. etc. We will live I guess. :)

So do not panic, play your R.E.M. cd's as loud as you can this winter, and until the next e-mail.

Please visit www.xs4all.nl/~locuta/rem for an updated version of the 2004/2005 Toursite.

Yours sincerely,
