New Mullet on Monday - R.E.M.

Was that a mullet on former R.E.M. drummer Bill Berry? I think it was. Peter Buck was dangerously close to mulletdom as well.

Stating the obvious here, but the three remaining original members of R.E.M. have continued to play live and make albums since the band's birth in 1980. A live DVD-CD combo, R.E.M. Live, was released on October 16, and a new album is slated for spring of 2008.

Michael Stipe will be a guest on The Music Club on BBC Radio 2 this evening at 11:30 p.m. London time, which according to my calculations, will be 7:30 p.m. E.S.T. BBC Radio does stream -- click here.

Here's R.E.M.'s first television appearance -- Late Night with David Letterman, October 6, 1983.
