Notes:
-Before The One I Love, MS: "I just realized my fly has been down this whole time.  If anyone saw flesh, raise your hand...you're lying".
-Skip in Shaking Through
-After The Flowers Of Guatemala, MS: "As long as we're on the topic of aggression, you guys with flashlights could you please stop shining them in people's faces?  Everybody else...the security guys are just doing their job, so be nice to them and they'll be nice back to you.  But...we're not doing our job cause...well...we can't pretend to have a great time with everybody sitting on their asses.  So stand up, come down the aisles if you want to, just try not to push and shove eachother OK?"
-Before Sitting Still, MS coments that it was not planned that they all ore white shrts.  He also ad-libs a line to Sitting still

Grade: A
-Similar sound to KC the previous night, albeit slightly better.

12 October 1986 - Kiel Opera House, St. Louis, MO

This list the last in the three night series taped by Doug Morris which I began torrenting before Christmas.
From what I have heard from people who emailed me, it seems that Doug, who was pretty well known around St. Louis, passed away a few years ago now. This show is is the best of the three REM shows he taped that autumn, and I dedicate it to Doug and his taping efforts. Coming up next time, 31-10-1986 or 10-31-1986 in English(US).

Taped by Doug Morris on a Sony D-6 deck, mics unknown. Converted from a 2nd gen tape.

As the lights come up after So. Central Rain you can hear some guy who wanted a fourth encore go "bummer" just before the recording ends. Well I found it amusing.
