yep, Zutons were one of the support acts, really good.We were stopping in a b&b at luss and owner put on a boat to get us to ballach and back, on the way back had a helluva lightning storm and "skipper" kept get lost and running aground on loch lomond....eventually we had to tell him to put us ashore before we sank.

Sad news, it's like their aint no sunshine but it will be all right now. REM are a facinating band who didn't do it for the love of money like many do. I'm sure they had a funtime with it all though. ​God save the queen.
