Portsmouth Guildhall Portsmouth
Right at the time ew were getting excited about WASP and Transvision Vamp, REM were at the same venue... Stone Roses were also in Portsmouth a few weeks before...
I have seen REM at least on three occasions; Glastonbury ('99), Brixton Academy ('03), and Glastonbury (2003), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up.
