By my daughter's reckoning, she saw michael stipe at a disco in germany. It caused quite the murmur. Many concerned made sure to document the occasion with photographs.

Is something like this acceptable?

Orange crush and a few pints. Bit of lunar skinny dipping on the way home. Can't beat a bit of nightswimming.
