2. A Rare Interview with Bill Berry of R.E.M.

In Weird Cities

Last spring, I sat down with Bill Berry of R.E.M. in his country house outside of Athens, Georgia. We talked about his life, his favorite chef, and how his musical career began, way back in the 3rd grade. Bill shared some surprising thoughts about being a drummer and talked about the project he's working on now. Bill is the best. He is warm and kind, and he's a guru when it comes to staying safe at home. If you know an REM fan, you might want to pass this along and brighten their day.
