Very cool.

I'll have to give murmurs.com another look to try and hunt down some shows there....especially the ones I've been to.

[atari 2600]

There were only ten or so there the last time I checked, but you never know when one could be added that's worth downloading.

have you heard "Furry Happy Monsters" that they did with the Muppets?

Kate Pierson did a different backing track for the song, but a muppet voiced her on the show.

no i haven't, but kate pierson makes me angry in general.

[atari 2600]

okey-doke

George Bush makes me angry. Apparently you have an altogether different threshold for anger.

[Cantankerous]

there is a fine line between "annoying" and "angering."
kate pierson is that line.

This is mostly for collectors, because the other show that CHOUT and I had a back-and-forth about features much of the same setlist and is considerably better sound and performance quality.

[CHOUT]

Thank you so fucking much, Atari 2600. I found my bootlist and will send it to you soon.

[Пятхъдесят Шест]

You know, this thread has made me listen to some old REM CD's I have.

Terrific thread. Atari your stories are great.

Is this to say you don't like the B52s either, Tank Girl?

"Shiny Happy People" is on my list of worst REM songs, but in general the good outweighs the bad...

I wish they'd regain their focus, though...Around The Sun was just so weak-but if you've been around a while, sooner or later, you'll make a bad album...happens to everybody.

[CHOUT]

Listening right now! Sounds better than I anticipated. Oh yeah, my band also covers Moral Kiosk.

I should have went to the store earlier in the week. I went this afternoon, and they are sold out of all "When The Light Is Mine" dvds until Monday.

I could have went to another store, but I give my business to Plan 9 Records.

I got this about three weeks ago, and watched it two weeks ago. There's tons to love here, but
I agree with CHOUT that that the included live performances are a bit of a disappointment and that it's strange they would use TV performances and not include So.Central Rain on Letterman. Besides, the good bands usually don't sound the best in TV performances. I have some pro-shots where they are much better live.

Anyway, it seems the only easter egg is the long version of Radio Free Europe which I was made aware of while the credits rolled. I googled to see if I could find a thread from an R.E.M. board or something concerning hidden videos, but was unable to find anything, so I decided to ask here.

[atari 2600]

I just read something that you press "play" while viewing Radio Free Europe to see the "original long version" that's hidden.
Okay, I did it.
It's the video set the original Hib-Tone Radio Free Europe single.

[Tokolosh]

This link might help in your search for hidden vids. Here's the link.

Edit: Nevermind. This site doesn't have any info at all.

R.E.M (In studio) AOL video.
