Howdy. Here's the long list. Revised 3/21/96 R.E.M. Tapes: Date Qual Srce (min) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Fleet Center - Boston, MA 10/3/95 2.5 AUD 120 What's The Frequency Kenneth?, Crush With Eyeliner, Drive, I Took Your Name, Wake Up Bomb, Binky the Doormat, Losing My Religion, Bang and Blame, Undertow, Orange Crush, Strange Currencies, Revolution, Tongue, Man on the Moon, Country Feedback, The One I Love, Pop Song '89, Get Up, Star 69, Let Me In, Everybody Hurts, Begin the Begin, Departure, ITEOTWAWKI. --COMMENTS: For the completist only... Lots of audience noise, but at least it isn't distorted or overdriven... *New World Music Theater-Tinley Prk,IL w/Patti Smith 9/24/95 3.8 AUD ~120 I Took Your Name, What's The Frequency Kenneth?, Crush With Eyeliner,Drive, Try Not To Breathe, Wake Up Bomb, Bang and Blame, Departure, The One I Love, Undertow, Strange Currencies, Revolution, Tongue, Man On the Moon, Country Feedback, Losing My Religion, Pop Song '89, Get Up, Star 69, Let Me In, Everybody Hurts, Hot Java, Dancin' Barefoot (w/ Patti), Departure, ITEOTW.. --COMMENTS: I was there. Lousy place to see a concert, but the sound on this one is good. Less than 4 rating due to lots of nearby audience chatter and an occasional muffled minute or two. I remember Stipe looking very very awestruck to see Patti on stage. He tries to sing along with her on Dancin' but can only manage a few bars. *Milton Keynes National Bowl - UK (WXRT, Chicago) 7/30/95 5.0 FM ~145 INTRO, What's the Frequency Kenneth?, Crush With Eyeliner, Drive, Turn You Inside Out, Try Not to Breathe, I took Your Name, Undertow, Bang and Blame, I Don't Sleep I Dream, Happy Birthday, Strange Currencies, Revolution, Tongue, Man On the Moon, Country Feedback, Half a World Away, Losing My Religion, Pop Song '89, Finest Worksong, Get Up, Star 69, Let Me In, Everybody Hurts, Fall On Me, Departure, ITEOTWAWKI (AIFF). --COMMENTS: Broadcast around the world via the Westwood One Radio Network, and full of announcers, commercials, and even "Stay tuned for more R.E.M." crap. I did not cut anything, like some would like, but I think its good to preserve the WHOLE experience... I taped this from WXRT 93.1 FM, Chicago. *Rosemont Horizon - Chicago, IL 6/4/95 3.0 AUD ~110 I Don't Sleep I Dream, What's the Frequency Kenneth?, Crush With Eyeliner, Drive, Turn You Inside Out, Undertow, Try Not to Breathe, Bang and Blame, Begin the Begin, Strnage Currencies, Revolution, Tongue, Man On the Moon, Country Feedback, Losing My Religion, Star Me Kitten, I Took Your Name, Get Up, Finest Worksong, Star 69, Let Me In, Everybody Hurts, Fall On Me, Departure, ITEOTWAWKI. --COMMENTS: Average Audience Recording on a walkman. Good clarity, not much level, and a bit of crowd chatter, but a good show. Highlight is during Begin the Begin, when the band screws it all up and just stops, Stipe blames the audience - "You fucked us up!" Also a big bonus for me, I WAS THERE! :) *Aneola Videodromo - San Sebastian, Spain 2/15/95 4.5 AUD ~110 What's the Frequency, Kenneth?, Circus Envy, Try Not to Breathe, Drive, Crush With Eyeliner, You, I Don't Sleep I Dream, Monty Got a Raw Deal, Revolution, Tongue, Man On The Moon, (side 2) I Took Your Name, Country Feedback, Losing My Religion, Departure, Star Me Kitten, Me In Honey, Finest Worksong, Get Up, Star 69 (skips), Let Me In, Everybody Hurts, (side 3) Pop Song '89, Bang and Blame, ITEOTWAWKI. --COMMENTS: Great audience recording. But either the microphone or the venue itself had an echo/reverb quality to it. Kind of eerie... But very clear, full sound. *Myer Music Bowl - Melbourne, Australia 1/26/95 4.5 AUD 120 Circus Envy, What's the Frequency Kenneth?, Crush With Eyeliner, Disturbance At the Heron House, Drive, You, King of Comedy, I Don't Sleep I Dream, Revolution, Try Not to Breathe, Tongue, Man On the Moon, Half a World Away, Losing My Religion, Pop Song '89, I Took Your Name, Orange Crush, Get Up, Star 69, ITEOTWAWKI, Let Me In, Everybody Hurts, Wichita Lineman, Bang and Blame, Finest Worksong. --COMMENTS: Great quality audience tape. Highlight is "Lineman" on which tennis star Jim Courier plays drums, and takes 4 or 5 tries to get it right at the beginning.... *Sweet Adelaide - Adelaide, Australia 1/16/95 4.8 AUD 120 What's the Frequency Kenneth?, Circus Envy, Crush With Eyeliner, Drive, King of Comedy, Me In Honey, Disturbance At the Heron House, Try Not to Breathe, Revolution, I Don't Sleep I Dream, Tongue, Man On the Moon, Half A World Away, Country Feedback, Losing My Religion, You, Orange Crush, Star 69, Get Up, ITEOTWAWKI, Let Me In, Everybody Hurts, I Took Your Name, Bang and Blame, Finest Worksong, (Filler: 11/19/92 ) Monty Got a Raw Deal --COMMENTS: Excellent audience recording placed on CD... then onto my tape. *Rare Frequencies - Fan Club and Bonus Tracks Various Var Var/CD 75 (Label: REM Fan club only...

Records label. However, Michael Stipe, the band's vocalist did not want it released" (end quote). Although this CD contains much of the same show as the boot LP "We Are Having a Heavenly Time," the CD is not mastered from the LP. For example, Stipe's comment at the beginning of the show about having a cold is on the CD but not the LP. Also, Driver 8, originally on the LP, but which contains a mid-song sound glitch, is missing from that set here. *We are Having a Heavenly Time-Page Audit, Durham,NC 9/25/84 4.5 SBD ~45 7 Chinese Bros., Catapult, Radio Free Europe, Letter Never Sent, Kohutek, So.

Its great to hear the styles that later changed, as well as the chirpy Stipe telling the crowd, "We'll be right back for a dance set." --AKA: "Bodycount at Tyrones" - Brigand Records (BRIG 007) LP R.E.M. Misc: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Hib Tone Single 7/81 5.0 ST/VY Radio Free Europe, Sitting Still. --COMMENTS: Yup. First Pressing.
