02. Rhiannon Elward City: Cardiff Country: Wales E-mail: rhiannonelward@hotmail.com About me: Um, I'm not very good at writing about myself but here goes anyway. I'm a philosophy student at Cardiff University but I also work part time for a supermarket. Other bands that I really like are Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Live and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Um, I fell in love with REM after hearing their performance on Later with Jools Holland in 1998 which changed my life, it was amazing and my mother and I began collecting their back catalogue immediately. My favourite REM song (well, most days anyway) is Find The River and the worst song they have ever written is The Wrong Child. I've seen REM live 3 times so far, 4 if you count standing outside a 10 foot wall during the South Africa Freedom Day concert in Trafalgar Square. |

04. Steven Stegeman City: Rekken Country: Netherlands E-mail: stevenrem@yahoo.com About me: I am a fan since Out Of Time, I was only 10 years old by that time. I had tickets for the Monster tour but the concerts in Holland were cancelled twice. So then I started buying and collecting everything from R.E.M. In 1999 I had the chance to see the guys for the first time in Oberhausen. In 2001 I saw them at the free concert in Koln, it was the best show I've seen until now. I also had a meet and greet with the band in Utrecht 2003 and saw the following 2003 concerts: Utrecht, Amsterdam, Wiesbaden, Vienne, Paleo Festival Nyon. Now I want to go to the USA for a concert. So if you can help me with that or want to go with me please e-mail me!

I'm studying for a degree in business management at the moment and I'm currently praying that I won't be outbid on eBay for a lovely digital camera! |
06. Angela Slater City: Birmingham Country: England E-mail: angelaslater@blueyonder.co.uk About me: Well, I’ve been into rem since I can remember. I remember seeing the unplugged on MTV in 1991 (I was 11 then) and being completely mesmerized by it. I then realised that all those songs on the radio that had made me sit up and listen were by them too. I have a vague recollection that certain songs, especially from Fables and Green were played to me when I was very young. I don’t know who by, but I would like to shake their hand! So I guess you could say I was into REM before I knew it! I have had a long and growing love affair with them since then. I developed a passion for film at University which has also increased over the past few years. That is why, if I come on this trip (I have already put some money aside) then I would love to make a documentary about our experiences on the road, and talk to people about their reasons for doing it (the obvious and not so obvious ones). If you want to know any more, then check out my profile on Murmurs (acslater) or send me an e-mail.

 07. Tim TompkinsCity: Boston Country: USA E-mail: EclipseNT@hotmail.com About me: I'm a 20 yr old R.E.M. fan. I have been a fan since I was 9 years old. The last time I saw them was on the monster tour so it has almost been eight years now. I have tickets to see them when they come to boston for the current tour. I am a college student at Northshore Community College. I am studying to get my degree in Marketing. My favorite song is I'll take the Rain, Favorite album is Up or Reveal (although New Adventures in Hi-Fi is up their). The song I feel is the worst in their catalogue would probably either be airport man or star me kitten. That's me! On the photo I'm the one with the white shirt and blond hair.

08. Luca RitucciCity: Novara Country: Italy E-mail: lucaritucci@tin.it About me: Hi I'm Luca and I'm the best singer in the world. I'm WAY better than Michael. Just ask Kirsten, she'll tell you! I've met Mike (see photo) in Nyon after we sneaked backstage (muhaha) (we passed 2309394 security people). However, I wasn't able to kill and hide Michael and take his place. Maybe better luck next time. :) |

13. Barbara BartoliniCity: Bergamo Country: Italy E-mail: barbara78it@yahoo.it About me: Born on 2 January 1978 (not a good day to be born, everybody is still drunk or tired for new year's party, or anyway on Xmas holyday and so everybody forgets your birthday!).

Dreams, they complicate/complement my life.

14. Michael Ferry City: Strabane Country: Northern Ireland E-mail: stillill60@hotmail.com About me: Well it all began one typically cold Irish Winter night in late 1975......no I don't think you want me to go that far back and to be honest neither do I! I'm 26 years old fast approaching 27 and after years of toiling my body and sapping my soul in the local textile industries I decided to get a life and return to college. I'm almost finished a degree in Media Studies which will hopefully get me there from here. (oh don't kick me off the bus just yet!) I'll will be completely finished by the time the next European tour begins so travelling across Europe catching the best band in the world nightly sounds like an adventure indeed, especially as music would hopefully be the field inwhich I'd like to have some kind of career. I've been an R.E.M. fan since Michael Stipe had long hair. My favourite album is impossible to pick but gun to my head (ahem) I'd say Green as it always reminds me of an uncompicated summer. Favourite song has always been Country Feedback even upon hearing it for the first time in 1991 when Out of Time was just released, it's ability to take me somewhere else has not faded with time. I'm so glad they performed it in Dublin again on this tour. I'm a huge music fan though I have lost some weight. My favourite band ever is The Smiths (the greatest excuse for a band ever apart from the Pistols), I still stalk Morrissey as I did at 15 when he tours. I love Bob Dylan, particularly his mid-70s period, The Pixies, Tom Waits, Billy Bragg, Natalie Merchant and I'm really excited by Eels, the new record is great, A Sleepy Jackson and Catpower, eventhough I saw her live recently and she was terrible - I forgive her because You Are Free is such a wonderful record. Well that's me as of 4.30pm August 1st 2003, tomorrow who knows. Hope this next tour plan works out and I see you all on the bus!! Fingers crossed. |

15. Karen Stephanie Melo City: Sao Paulo Country: Brazil E-mail: asukapotter@uol.com.br About me: Story about my self: Hm....what do I have to say...I have been an R.E.M. fan for almost 4 years now but I have never seen they playing live, I had the oportunity in the year of 2000 when they came to RIR3, but I was underage and my parents didn't allow me to go. Now with this new tour I am wondering to go to the concerts 'cause I LOVE this band so much!!!!!!! About my life, without mentioning R.E.M., I study languages at the University and I'm also an english teacher at language school. I love meeting people all over the world!

Currently I'm implementing the ISO-system at the compagny I that employs me, and provide my collegues with data-analysis. To keep (a bit) in shape I cycle and skate. I also visit my yoga-class twice a week (at least, I will start again as soon as my ribs are not bruised anymore). In summer (now) my greatest hobby is to sit at the terrace.

Favourite R.E.M. songs include 'She just wants to be', Ignoreland, and 'Live rich Pegeant' and more.. Other artist I like are Def P, PE, Reich, Joplin, Vai. -I know there's no logic in this listing ;) Favourite movie would be 'Straight Story' for it's been years that I've seen it, and I still feel nice when I think about it (could also be influented by my memory of that beautifull Swedish girl who was my date that night). Most watched movie must be 'Endgame'. Cheers! |

This year, when the concerts finished I already missed them...so,when I found out your idea, I told myself this was one of the better projects I have heard of in a while. Though the tour and the project are not confirmed still, I hope to join the group!

20.Yael City: Herzelia Country: Israel E-mail: - About me: I'm 17 years old, living in Israel.

I'm a fan of R.E.M. only since Reveal (yeah, I know it's sad..), some of my favorite songs are- I've Been High, Half Aworld Away and Falls To Climb. I was in their concert in Naples, probably my most wonderful night ever, can't wait to hear and see them performing live again. |

21. Iris Brehovsky City: Vienna Country: Austria E-mail: einewahnsinnige@gmx.at About me: And now you want a little story. Hell, what to say? :) I'm 19 and a R.E.M. fan since I was 12. This year was the first time I've been on one of their concerts: in Vienna on 8th July. I don't know what has happened, but I just stood there, staring at Michael Stipe. I've somehow become one of these crazy R.E.M. fans :))) I immediately decided that I just had to join their concert in Wiesbaden, Germany, too and that's what I did. And it was even more fantastic than the one in Vienna. I'd have liked to go on another concert, but I'm somehow out of money :) I didn't even know that they're thinking about touring in Europe again next year and I'm feeling so excited now. So if they're touring next year, I'll surely be on at least one of their concerts! I can't even imagine being on 15!!!!!!!! So, if it comes to the tour and if it comes to happen that you get that "tour-following"-plan alive, I'd be very VERY thankful to be with you.

23. John LappinCity: Southend-on-Sea Country: England E-mail: johnlappin@blueyonder.co.uk About me: I suppose the best story I have is when I met REM before the show in Brixton.

25. Eric City: Paris Country: France E-mail: eric.daubresse@wanadoo.fr About me: I'm actually a cameraman and I would love shooting the meeting, the trip and all around that beautifull idea...it can be fun and very interesting i'm sure (a film as '101' Depeche mode..did you ever see it?)...This movie can be a part of an REM DVD tour or just a documentary for fans by the fans... The fact is that I have to find money to prepare this project and this will be difficult...but I don't need to stay with you for 30 days (too much tapes...), I have to stay just a few days and nights, in different parts of Europe... |

I can't really find the words to say, why i like R.E.M. but the closest i can imagine would be: Their songs are so true. |
30. Dominik JollerCity: Dallenwil Country: Switzerland E-mail: onlydj@hotmail.com About me: I'm 20 years old and I find this a very good project. I saw REM this year the first time live at the PALEO Festival in Nyon Switzerland. And the concert was realy great. But the whole Festival was a great time, we stay all 6 days. My favourite songs from REM are "everybody hurts" and "this is the end of the world". But I listen also SKA and sometimes Punk, but the most I love sounds like REM. My other hobbys are in the Sommer Beachsoccer, Beachvolleyball and Longboarding, Biken, in the Winter Snowboarding and Carving. And with my friends to make partys and to take a chillout. |
31. Torsten City: - Country: Germany About me: The Story: The Story so far: I become a R.E.M.-Fan in 1990.

32. Linda Eames City: London Country: United Kingdom E-mail: jivansarita@aol.com About me: What a great idea, a european tour! My name is Linda Eames, but I go under my nick name Sarita. I live in London, I'm 36 years old on October 4th and for my birthday present to myself I'm flying to New York to see REM at Jones Beach and at Madison Square Garden! I was lucky enough to see them this year at Brixton and at T-in the Park but it's never enough!!!! I've been a fan for around 20 years now, oh god now I feel old! I have had all sorts of jobs, from music industry, film, waitressing, volunteer work and now I run my own childcare business for pre school. I have been fortunate enough to travel quite widely either with my jobs or under my own steam. I spend a lot of time in India, this is where I got my name Sarita. I have found though as I have got older a lot of friends I used to go and see REM with just don't have the time or commitment to be able to come to as many shows as I would like to go to, this is why I think your idea of getting a bunch of like minded people together to go and see our favourite band is a wonderful idea. I really hope that this comes off and I would very much like to be part of it. |

38. DermotCity: Belfast Country: Northern Ireland E-mail: - About me: I am an 18 year old student from Belfast and am very excited at the prospect of the 2004 tour. If everything goes to plan it would definitely be a lifelong memory. I've been a fan of R.E.M. for about 5 years now and finally got to see them play in Marlay Park Dublin (16/07/2003). I was in the front row and the experience was incredible, however it was almost too surreal and i couldnt take anything in so i promised myself i'd have to see them another few times in the future... what a perfect opportunity to do so and have fun with some fellow REM fans. My favourite songs are Bang and Blame and Country feedback, two songs which I didnt get to hear in Dublin. Roll on Europe 2004! Thank you, hope to see you all soon! |

39. Joanna Zaleska City: Warsaw Country: Poland E-mail: - About me: Hi, my name is Asia and I'm a 22 year old student at the Univerity of Warsaw, majoring in linguistics. I've been an R.E.M. fan since 1996 but I've only seen them play live once, when they came to Warsaw this July. It was the greatest concert I have ever witnessed, with the guys sounding great, and everybody in the audience dancing and singing along throughout the entire show. Unfortunately, I couldn't afford to go to other concerts and I was pretty upset when I realized that the best evening of my life was already a thing of the past. So, when I (accidentally) found out about Kirsten's plan I knew from the very beginning that I wanted to be part of it. I'm so thrilled by the idea of spending a month with other R.E.M. fans touring Europe and seeing the band that I can't find words to express it! I hope that the plan is going to work out and that I'm going to see you all next year!!!

40. Chris McNally City: Canberra Country: Australia E-mail: mcnally_chris@yahoo.com About me: I am 23 years old, and have been a huge REM fan forever, but have only seen them (briefly) once, when they did an interview in Sydney and peformed 2 songs. Sure, I drove over 3 hours to get there, and sat around in the blazing sun for about 8 hours just to hear them speak (and perform The Lifting and Losing my Religion) but it was definitely worth it! If there is anyone out there that is willing to put together a Pilgrammage around Aus when they get here, I'll definitely help out wherever I can! |
41. Wim van Overmeire City: Melle Country: Belgium E-mail: swell_doll@yahoo.com About me: I'm 22 years old and i'm studying to be a biological engineer. Apart from listening to REM i spend my time reading and playing with my cat. I've seen REM 4 times already: Torhout 95, Werchter 99, Werchter 2003 and Carhaix 2003. My fav REM song is it's the end of the world as we know it and my fav album is new adventures. Other bands i like are U2, Third eye blind, Hooverphonic and Ocean Colour Scene. If my exam schedule would allow me then i'd love to join in this crazy adventure. :D |
42. Christine Klopfenstein City: Berne Country: Switzerland E-mail: ck_beo@bluemail.ch About me: My name?s Christine and I?m from Switzerland. I haven?t seen R.E.M. in Nyon, but in Locarno. It was the very first time for me to see a concert of them and it was so amazing... Now I?ve read on your page about them coming next year over to Europe again. Do you know already some details? I?m so curios... Thank you very much for your great site and the fotos.

43. David Dunne City: Wigan Country: United Kingdom E-mail: FerrariChamps@aol.com About me: What a totally fantastic idea! My name is David Dunne, I'm 29 and from Wigan in the UK. I've been a fan of REM since around 1989 when I bought 'Eponymous' but have only seen them once, in Manchester this summer and since then I've become obsessed! I was planning to go to Athens next year to seek out their history but this sounds like a much better idea. My favourite songs are Find The River, These Days, Strange Currencies, Rockville, Sidewinder.....I could go on forever! Hopefully see you all next year! |
44. Mark Antani City: Los Angeles Country: USA E-mail: msantanius@yahoo.com About me: My name is Mark Antani; I live in Los Angeles, California; my email is listed above; and I've been an REM fan since the age of 9. The first time I was exposed to them was when I was in the back seat of my parents' car driving down Lake Shore Drive in Chicago. My brother kept insisting that I listen to this band that I'd never heard of. Finally I caved in and as I listened to my first REM song (Begin the Begin), I immediately became entranced by his words and his passion for music. Stipe is a genuis and I just saw them in L.A. and left tremendously inspired. I have always had faith in these guys (whereas most everybody else turned to pop culture while they barfed up remnants of Brittany Spears junk). It's too bad.

My name is Efi, I'm from Greece and this summer I travelled to Italy (Ancona 23/7) just to see them! I'm a great fan of the band since 1997 and I like the albums from Document to New adventures in Hi Fi but my favourite one is Automatic for the people.

46. Anastasia Melekou City: Athens Country: Greece E-mail: weremoose@pathfinder.gr About me: Hallo! I can't really say i'm a fan of the band for years. I knew some of their most popular songs, but this summer I started listening their songs. I've seen the band in Italy and I was thrilled. Amazing performance! So when I saw this site and this idea of following them I thought that it would be a great experience to live. Thanks for sharing this idea with everybody and thanks for organizing it!

City: Pittsburgh Country: USA E-mail: lemonpictures@hotmail.com About me: Hello. I'm a film student here in the USA. I've been an R.E.M. fan since before I can remember. I've seen the band seven times (once in 1995, 4 times in 1999, twice in 2003) and it seems like every tour just gets better and better. I would love to see some European shows. European audiences are so much more enthusiastic than most American ones, and I can't wait to be a part of that energy. Count me in.

48. Frances Parr City: Nice Country: France E-mail: frances.parr@wanadoo.fr About me: I have been a fan of REM for about five years, I'm 22 years old. I'm in my third year at University, but am currently on work placement in France. This year I have seen REM twice. I have just come home from seeing REM in New York (which was a late present from my dad (10 day before the concert). I was meant to be quite far back from the stage, and then two lads managed to get me moved to the front (I was four rows from the front). As I was the only one who dared to stand on the chair to take photos, Michael stopped when he saw me and let me take a photo! I have also seen them over the summer in Vienne, France. Something changed after I saw them live, I went from being a fan, to something of a mega fan ;-))) Favourite songs have to include 'You are the Everything' from Green (sentimental value from an Ex), So, Central Rain, Find the River, Country Feedback and I've Been High. Mike Mills was excellent when he sang 'Don't Go Back to Rockville" in NYC!

My second interest is art. Id like to start to study arts one day and Im painting and photographing and filming a lot in my sparetime - and I think Im quite good in it :-) What can I say more? At least my friends say that Im a symphatic person and they get along with me quite well :-) No, seriously: Normally I get along with everyone quite well - I think that would be important on the tour, dont you?

50. Karen Bell City: Glasgow Country: Scotland E-mail: bellie72@blueyonder.co.uk About me: Hi my name is Karen, I'm 33 and I've been a huge fan of REM for as long as I can remember. I've seen them 3 times, first Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh (amazing!) & The Cranberries were excellent too!, next at Milton Keynes Bowel, working in the beer tent and then escaped to the front of the crowd when REM came on, and lastly at Stirling Castle. I just missed them September there when I was across in Canada which was a bit of bad luck. There performance on Later with Jools Holland was fantastic and 'At my most beautiful' was a favourite from that! Other bands I like are the Chilli's, Led Zepplin, Lynard Skynard, Stereophonics, Springsteen and lots more rock! I work full-time but also a part-time 'mature' student in my final year at University.
