Who likey the R.E.M.? Me do! If you want a free copy of R.E.M.’s double live album, R.E.M. Live At The Olympia, all you gotta do is read this post and figure out the magic secret!
The two-CD set, produced by Jacknife Lee, features 39 songs that capture the best moments from the band’s 2007 working rehearsals at Dublin¹s fabled Olympia club, where singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, and bassist Mike Mills tested out new songs for R.E.M.’s 2008 studio album Accelerate.
The material was tested for five nights before fired-up, capacity crowds comprised of fan-club members, friends, family, and fans from all over the world.
R.E.M. have always been an impressive live band. This should be a great release.
