All right so the other day |
[00:03.64] |
I was talking with Michael Stipe |
[00:05.58] |
And we were talking about the very first memory you had |
[00:07.19] |
The very first thing that comes into your head and dude |
[00:10.24] |
I think I sort of freaked him out a little bit |
[00:13.05] |
Because I told him when I was about three or four years old |
[00:16.86] |
Me and my little brother used to go out into our backyard |
[00:19.42] |
And we'd go up on top of this swingset out there climb up on top |
[00:23.28] |
It was Mark and we'd climb up on top of this swingset |
[00:26.47] |
And we could sit up there all night and watch these drive-in movies |
[00:31.09] |
That were about a half a mile away over on this hill |
[00:34.89] |
|
[00:35.58] |
And we'd just sit up there all night and we'd just watch these movies |
[00:40.44] |
Okay and we had a pretty good view of the sky there |
[00:44.19] |
You could see the sky pretty good as we were watching the movies |
[00:48.68] |
|
[00:49.43] |
Okay so one night we were out there |
[00:52.18] |
Sitting there watching the movies like usual |
[00:54.18] |
|
[00:54.74] |
And we were watching on the horizon and there were six U F O s in formation |
[00:57.81] |
|
[00:59.80] |
Really I mean right there in formation |
[01:01.68] |
Six U F O s right there |
[01:03.30] |
Okay so we're just little kids and it sort of freaks us out a little bit |
[01:07.73] |
So I get down |
[01:08.79] |
I get down off the swingset and I go in to get mom |
[01:11.35] |
Because that's what you do when you're a little kid |
[01:13.47] |
You just go get mom because weird shit's happening |
[01:15.34] |
So by the time I come back with mom to check it out they're gone |
[01:21.03] |
|
[01:27.07] |
Okay and so no one believed me |
[01:28.95] |
Okay so I'm about ten or eleven |
[01:30.70] |
And me and Mark are playing football in this field by our house |
[01:33.15] |
Okay and we've had about enough |
[01:34.58] |
We've been playing for a while |
[01:36.15] |
And we're getting ready to go in |
[01:38.58] |
And we're walking up to the house now |
[01:40.70] |
Okay and this is real it's the same sort of deal |
[01:44.07] |
You can see the sky pretty good |
[01:45.63] |
And the sun's sort of going down but it's still pretty light out |
[01:49.19] |
|
[01:49.81] |
You know what I mean |
[01:51.18] |
Okay and we're walking up there in view of the horizon |
[01:53.62] |
And no bullshit |
[01:54.30] |
The same six U F O s are right there in formation |
[01:56.92] |
|
[01:57.55] |
Right there dude I know man right there in formation |
[02:01.79] |
|
[02:02.79] |
But we don't freak out this time |
[02:04.85] |
Okay because we saw them |
[02:06.53] |
|
[02:07.60] |
So we just sit there |
[02:08.90] |
And they're right there hovering over our heads |
[02:10.71] |
Man and we sit there and they're coming closer and closer |
[02:15.14] |
And we're just sitting there |
[02:16.96] |
There we go we're waiting on them |
[02:19.20] |
|
[02:19.95] |
They're coming toward us |
[02:21.39] |
|
[02:22.01] |
And they made this really weird sound |
[02:24.19] |
|
[02:25.00] |
I'll never forget |
[02:26.50] |
They made this sound |
[02:27.81] |
|
[02:28.44] |
And it sounded like this |
