“It’s been awhile since I’ve sung these songs, 16 years in fact, but I’m really happy to be here with Jason and with the soon-to-be-ever First Gentleman of the United States of America,” Stipe said after being introduced by Doug Emhoff.He and Isbell then launched into R.E.M.’s “The One I Love.” Of Isbell’s, the pair played “Traveling Alone” and “Hope The High Road,” and closed the set with R.E.M.’s “Driver 8,” which Stipe hasn’t played since 2008.
