Although some would argue that New Adventures in Hi-Fi was their first live album, R.E.M. are releasing their first real concert CD/DVD in October. I'm not sure how exciting this is now that you can already get more live music than you could ever want if you know where to look, but I guess there's something nice about an official release. Along with a lot of the recent R.E.M. releases, like In Time and And I Feel Fine, it does smack of the record company trying to make back some of their big investment in the band, but I'm still going to buy it, of course. I just hope that it's better-done than their last DVD, Perfect Square, from the 2003 tour. That one gave me a headache with all of the quick camera cuts.

Thanks for stopping by my site. I hadn't seen this news yet. I agree 100 percent with you. It's a money grab, but I'm a sucker. The best part of Perfect Square for me was the Sterling documentary.
