A Dream Comes True: REM Makes Istanbul Debut!!


A dream will soon come true! REM is going to be in "Kuruçeşme Arena" in the 4th of October @ 15:00. Many Turkish REM fans, like me have been waiting for this concert for a long time.
The band is famous with its songs like “Losing my Religion”, “Shiny Happy People”, “Everybody Hurts” and “The One I Love”. I'll try to release some of their songs on the blog. The legendary rock group returned to the spotlight after a 10 year break, at the end of 2004 when they joined Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam and Bright Eyes on the “Vote for Change” tour. I suggest you to get ready for this great concert.
Ticket prices: 90 YTL

I know a couple songs of REM and I really like the song 'losing my religion'. I would want to go to the concert but I'm not going to be in Turkey at that day so unfortunately I can't..

Are there still tickets available?? I was thinking I should try to go! I saw REM in concert at Madison Square Garden in NYC in 1996 and it was such a great show!
