2.93/365: Happy birthday to Adam Scott

In the zero percent chance that one of my favorite actors and fellow R.E.M. super-fan, Adam Scott reads my blog (he doesn’t), happy birthday.

There were lots of R.E.M. references by his character, Ben Wyatt, in the show Parks and Recreation. One reference is just fantastic. It’s before Ben’s birthday party and he says “Get this, I asked the DJ what R.E.M. albums he has. He’s got Monster but not Automatic for the People. What is this, a mid-’90s party? No, it’s an early ’90s party!”

I love that.

Mr. Scott was in the “Drive” video back in the day, look to the right of Mr. Michael Stipe’s head for a young Adam.

Good stuff.
