  • The poster showing the tour dates is awesome. I was at the show in Augusta. I believe it was the second time they played at NY,NY, a disco that had a "New Wave Night" and bands such as REM,Pylon, and the The Drastics came through town. I was under age and Jefferson Holt, REM's manager, let me use his ID to get in. "Rockville" took some getting used to when it appeared on vinyl a few years later and had a country feel. Of course, at that time, REM was the best band in America and I loved it all.

  • @REMchout st. mary's??

  • @dcfcinla same for Wrothington, OH

  • @ecosmart123 treasure that.

  • The fact that Buck could hardly play guitar at the start has to be a myth judging by this. This is f**kin awesome. A sure sign of what was to come!

  • I have a pink LP "So Much Younger Then" recorded live in 1981. I wonder if it was at the same place - it doesn't say. Has an awesome version of "Body Count" (my fave on the LP) which is abit faster than this version.

  • Holy crap. I love this. Great Velvet Underground cover.

  • I'm 23 again! Thanks for the time machine!!

  • This recording sounds much better before it was transferred to crappy youtube mono...i just put a link to download the show on my main channel page if anyone wants it!
