    When I read the article 1988 popped into my head, and then I cam down to the comments section… I was 16 at the time

    I would have said 88 or 89, bc Andre died shortly after. Dang, I love that song by REM!!!!

    I was thinking 1988-89 but couldn’t narrow it down for sure. So I was half right?
