I saw the indigo girls open for rem and mike came out and joined in on "kid
fears",  I also saw him join 10, 000 Maniacs for "campfire song" which he
also does on the "in my tribe" disc. Sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you
don't. I saw Patti open for Bob Dylan, they did 2 nights in Boston, she
joined him on the 2nd night for a duet, I had seats for the first night,
(can't complain, it was a great show)
