Everybody hurts

We were lucky enough to see the arts benefit / REM tribute at Carnegie Hall last evening - twenty bands playing REM tunes, and then REM came on for a little night-capper with Patti Smith. Describing it all would be linky-dink-a-doo all afternoon - maybe I can find a post by someone else somewhere else - (Yes - I can - the poster site here for now) but this post is here to say that the emotional high-point (low-point? stress-point?) was Vic Chesnut and Elf Power performing Everybody Hurts. Woof!

VC:
North Star Deserter

Hey, something about that Elf Power site - the painting by Terry Rowlett - Through The Garden. I've seen it. It used to hang in the place that was Zipper. On Smith Street. No? makes me wonder if the Zipper people are from Athens, too.
