R.E.M. - 10/02/85 Germany 1. Feeling Gravity's Pull

[@HerveMendell]

man, how time flies, a cliche but so true. I remember when R.E.M. was considered cutting edge, hip, underground. Now most people don't even know who they are. Crap, I mean rap "music" has taken over and it just won't go away. (dear God, please make it go away)

The blast of a train horn heard in the backround is awesome. Adds something kinda to the opening song! Saw this tour one month b-4 this in Milwaukee. Aug ' I believe. Awesome

Nice! I don't think I've heard this live before... Sending you a huge kiss with lots of Tongue.

[@NeilBarrettSLT]

Thanks for making such a wise choice of show to put up.

The Germans didn't know what hit 'em.

This Concert is Mislabeled: This was NOT in Germany in 1985. It was West Germany.

[@BrucknerMotet]

it's a Man Ray kind of sound.

[@anthonynavarro6074]

Hell yea!

[@clintlandrum9498]

Man, that wasn't even polite applause that greeted them.

[@REMchout]

someone started taping tv on the tape. I edited out Al Roker yakking with somebody...it kinda ruined the vibe of the song. :)_

Then Michael missed the lyric.
