Quote of the week
When REM's Michael Stipe claimed that the fabulous weather was thanks to a conversation with "the man upstairs," things took on an almost religious significance. Midway through a messianic set of old classics and powerful new post-Iraq songs, Stipe claimed to see a man with a beard in the sky. As the hushed crowd gazed heavenward, he explained wickedly: "That cloud up there looks like Badly Drawn Boy".
