An anecdote comes back to mind. As REM were participating at the Torhout Wechter Belgium festival, I went to see them with the Daimler. The car was going so smoothly and so nicely that I found myself driving to the show with Mike Mills, Bill Berry - he was an old car fanatic - and their manager at the time, Jefferson Holt. Much better than the tour bus!
The next day, I remember that Michael Stipe solemnly announced to me that the day he managed to simulate the sound of a whale with his voice, he would quit singing. Well, I personally think that he got very close and thank God he is never satisfied, otherwise…
I did understand what REM was all about, when I saw them in a small concert in Norway in 1984. I got it all that very day and it still is one of the best musical moments of my life. I am very proud to have participated in the adventure when punk rock became alternative rock. What an impact.
What a great R.E.M. memory—the Michael Stipe anecdote made me smile. For anyone digitizing old music articles or archives, this scanned PDF to text converter is also useful.
This is a really helpful breakdown. I’ve been testing tools like Imgveo for visual content generation and the speed is pretty impressive.
Great read! For anyone working with structured data, this handy tool can quickly convert JSON files into CSV format: json to csv.
Really helpful post! I’ve been using step-by-step video guides for tricky levels lately, and it makes a huge difference when you’re stuck. Found this one pretty useful:https://pixelflowlevel.app
Nice breakdown, especially for players who get stuck on harder clues. I’ve been checking some walkthroughs for Clues by Sam levels here, might help others too:https://cluesbysam.net
