thanks

living well is the best revenge from their new cd, they did 8 of the 11 songs off that

and how did the Brooklyn show compare?

rem didnt play like the rumor going around, only modest mouse.

they played mostly older stuff, and you could tell issac was WAY more into the smaller venue. he was telling stories, going crazy and stuff. each song was like, 10 min long with jam sessions.

at one point he jumped into the crowd with his guitar and started running around with people singing and playing

[guitarliketom]

anyone have the MM set from the brooklyn show?

brooklyn was:

truckers atlas
breakthrough
fire it up
dance hall
satin in a coffin
dramamine
dashboard
whild packs of family dogs
little motel
paper thin walls
tiny cities made of ashes
the good times are killing me



the order may be a little wrong but i think its pretty damn close. there were a few more i am missing.

dramamine, tiny cities, and breakthrough were all about 10 plus min, and truckers atlas was the full version.

un fortunately no encore beacuse the show started late. it ran from 2:30 am to 4am.

[Cuddleworthy]

dramamine? niceeeee

[GoWaitInTheCar]

Johnny Marr and R.E.M.

Wow.

[m e t a t r o n]

Did anyone get the setlist for The National?
