REM

Early stuff was fantastic. Most people only think they've been around since losing my religion. Saw them live at Glasto a few years back, they played a lot of old stuff and the best recent stuff. One of the best shows of my life! Can see how Stipes' voice can be a problem for some people though

Radiohead are a tad overated but they were awesome live aswell.
