jimtweedy1977 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 After listening to the recent cd release, Live At The Olympia, I was impressed by the energy that they put into "rehearsals" and how awesome they sounded. Of course, I'm not surprised either. I haven't seen R.E.M. live for more than 10 years now, but in those two tours in the 90's, even with a lackluster album (UP), they were still a great live album. I thought that with the live album that came out in 2007, the energy wasn't as much there, and the setlist was somewhat uninspired. However, it was a great idea to tackle some songs with the rehearsals that they haven't done in years or not at all. I'm not sure if this thread had already been done before, but I thought it would be fun to come up with a show that I would like to see. Feel free to share your own setlist. The Dream Show:-Leave-Undertow-Circus Envy-Me In Honey-Texarkana-Country Feedback-Crush With Eyeliner-Belong-I Remember California-Electrolite-Harborcoat-Auctioneer-Driver 8-Strange-Little America-Departure-Radio Free EuropeEncore-E-Bow The Letter (w/Patti Smith)-Pilgrimage-I've Been High -Why Not Smile-Pop Song 89-Star 69-Man-Sized Wreath-Time After Time Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jakobnicholas Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I'd have to take a lot of time to think of my ultimate list. But I also saw the Up live show and it was GREAT. Because of that, I'd throw in "Lotus". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
