I was listening to this for the 1,000th time and yeah realized today it was their last show ever. Michael even hinted that it was their last show for, uh, a long time.
I think the fact they threw in I Believe was a great thing, then followed by a terrific Country Feedback made it even better.
'we'll see you soon" - no they bloody won't! Stipe lying through his teeth ;)
So sad - but wish you the best guys......although i will say that announcing the split on a website sorta felt like getting dumped by a text message...
Ending their last concert ever with It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) would have been too predictable, so they chose to end it with a pretty significant verse. "Nothing is cool". Yes. Nothing is cool without REM. So sad they've split and quit the bussiness, they will be missed =(
Triste porque REM se separa :( realmente su musica permanecera por siempre. Gracias por ese concierto que jamas olvidare.... el mejor que he estado!!! FOREVER REM
This is the best video in the world and it really stokes me. It gives me a nice warm feeling inside and a sense of security. There are some gems in there. i love you REM and I want to be your underpants
Great show and REM are brilliant as always, but i'm not overly keen on the excessive cut shots and arty graphics. It would be nice if we could actually see the band when they are singing, rather than the 12 frames that are floating across the screen.
18:54 was one of the best moments of that concert; Michael Stipe sits (giving the back to the audience) to enjoy Peter Buck's magnificent guitar solo in Country Feedback.
The studio version of the song lack of that solo :)
Oye juanbellamy92 REM no es RBD yo tengo 39 años y es mi banda favorita y si habia un chingo de rucos pues ni como ayudarte, ellos empezaron en los 80s y han vendido mas discos que muchos ·jovencillos· yo los he visto en Boston, Los Angeles, Mexico DF (2) San Diego y en Nueva York porque los sigo y me gusta mucho su musica tipo indie rock. A lo mejor estamos rucos pero que chingon (perdon) tocan en vivo. Definitivamente solo nos dan buenos momentos para recordar Saludos desde Hermosillo Son!
I took an airplane the same day of the concert from Hermosillo Son (just above -Arizona St) to Mexico city just to see them AGAIN! AmazingG!! they went off the stage with the people, was the best REM concert for me and I saw them many times My BEST band in the world TXS guys!
Me too man!!! I took an airplane from my city to Mexico the day of the concert in mexico.... saw it at night and took the airplane back to my hometown the next day in the morning
Great!!!it really changed my life and how to live it...Me and my Brother were waiting for Cuyahoga and Rockville with Mr. Mills on vocals...but I Believe, Country Feedback and Life and how to live it were perfect! I got in REM since 94 when I was in Honduras...used to listening Authomatic and Moster for hours, now I play all their music in my truck driving from Toluca to Zihuatanejo...Thanx R.E.M...Glenn
no se por que me da la impresion de que adelante estaba bien pinche vacio y habia un chingo de señoras como de 60 años que no savian ni que pedo con rem rey no dudo que sea una buena banda pero dudo que el concierto del auditorio haya sido asi cmo tan chidillo se veia medio vacio y puro wey super ruco.
jajajajja... que risa me da tu conocimiento tan verde de la musica niño. Primero informate bien quien es R.E.M. y luego me dices de que calibre de banda estas hablando. Si, REM no es tan conocido ni tan popular en MExico como un U2 o Metallica pero creeme.. son igual de buenos y el hecho de que haya gente o no es totalmente irrelevante sea la gente de la edad que sea. Y no es porque importe pero yo fui a ese concierto y creeme... en frente estaba hasta la madre!!! y si lo llenaron.... jajjaja
Asi es yo tambien estuve ahi ese dia el sonido fue impecable anteriormente habia ido al primer concierto que fue en el palacio de los deportes que tambien fue impresionante
por qué lo dices? a mi me pareció bastante apoyadora [menos en donde estaba, NADIE se paró (sólo en LMR por supuesto) yo era la única que estaba de pie :( ]
But they've played a huge variety of songs on this tour, so I still don't see the problem. Some of the people paying £45 for a ticket might want to hear Losing My Religion! If you simply don't like them anymore that's your prerogative of course, but they're far less lazy than many other bands living off their hits.
I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a better band that's been around 25+ years and still relevant. Certainly not the Stones or Aerosmith. At least they're not rehashing greatest hits albums like most bands their age.
I wouldn't go as far to say REM=shit, but I will say that they have declined in terms of the # of good songs per album, and in terms of concert quality compared to the concerts of Tourfilm. Michael does more screaming and off-key raspy-voiced vocals rather than the actual singing from before. They've also become the Democratic Party Band, rather than focusing on art music. But, I still listen to their older stuff (and some newer stuff) on earphones at night- it's still amazing.
It was a great concert, I was there, it will be great if you could upload the video of "the one i love", in México, where Michael goes with the public.
It was a great tour, i was in mann center in Philadelphia, Pa, I realy enjoyed that show, the first time I saw them was in Atlantic City,NJ, I hope some day see them at Mexico City.
I saw the show in Los Angeles this tour, awesome as always . I've seen each tour since Monster... my parents wouldn't let me go to the Green tour in 89 I was 13 and it was a school night. Seen you in NYC, Virgina, Utrecht, Los Angeles, and Washington DC... You're the best, thank you for sharing this!!!
WoW!!! Thanks for the great video and for the great tour. I saw the guys in Berlin and Oberhausen, fantastic! I hope I see you soon, on the next tour. Thanks a lot.
OMG! I see all those beautiful and memorable moments and I want to cry! It's definitely the best show i have been in. Thank you REM, you are a great band.
Thanks for a fantastic 2008 tour! You guys rocked the Manchester Cricket Ground in England once again in August! It was my third time seeing you guys live and I hope to see you guys live again soon!
Simplemente INCREIBLE!! es la primera vez que los veo (y siempre había sido un sueño estar en alguno de sus conciertos) y desde esa noche aun sigo emocionada!! o_O'
I appear on that video!!! Minute 8:16 dancing like a madman and singing along from first row.
Thanks REM for that unforgetable evening filled up with wonderful surprises and special thanks to Bertis for giving me the whole setlists of the american tour. You rock!!
It was worth the trip all the way from Monterrey just to be there.
What a beautiful gift!!!! thank you so much for this video, I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks for this unforgettable concert in Mexico City... thank you so much.... You'll be in my heart forever.... I love you Michael, I love you REM.... Thanks again for this video
no other band like rem.
It was a pleasure to share my existence with there music.

I wouldn't go as far to say REM=shit, but I will say that they have declined in terms of the # of good songs per album, and in terms of concert quality compared to the concerts of Tourfilm. Michael does more screaming and off-key raspy-voiced vocals rather than the actual singing from before. They've also become the Democratic Party Band, rather than focusing on art music. But, I still listen to their older stuff (and some newer stuff) on earphones at night- it's still amazing.
