REM Available For Weddings?2005-10-11R.E.M.'s Original four members reunited last weekend to perform at a wedding at Kingpins Bowl & Brew in Athens, Georgia for the group's guitar tech Dewitt Burton. The band played a seven-song set for several hundred astounded wedding guests. The performance marked only the second time the band has performed with former drummer Bill Berry since he left the band in 1997. "Nobody really knew it was going to happen," Kingpins owner Ed Connolly told Billboard.com. "As a matter of fact, I think it was fairly hit and miss up until the time it happened. I heard they didn't know if Bill was even going to make it, and I don't know if they had a chance to rehearse." The actual wedding band was taking a break when Michael Stipe, Peter Buck, Mike Mills and Berry set up in the bowling alley's arcade and took the stage. Lead singer Stipe toasted the bride and groom during the set and took requests from the 300-guest wedding crowd. Among the songs performed were The One I Love, Radio Free Europe and Don't Go Back to Rockville.
