I’m a huge sci-fi fan, especially Star Trek and Ghostbusters. I’m not sure why I’m here, but I guess a good laugh every now and then can’t hurt, right? 🖖

On this day 30 years ago, R.E.M. began the final three nights of the Monster World Tour at The Omni in Atlanta. ‘The Wake-Up Bomb’ and ‘Binky the Doormat’ from the show were included on the ‘Electrolite’ single and ‘Undertow’ on the ‘Bittersweet Me’ single.

Listicles often seem a little pointless, but this one has an excellent curveball, with Live At The Olympia coming in at #16, right between The Beatles "Revolver" and Radiohead’s “Kid A”

From the venerable UNCUT way back in 2003, a selective critical listing of the band’s mid and later-period “singles” (1988-2001). Particularly fun to see the guys’ realtime reactions to some of these songs.
