Timeline notes: Prior to 'Stand' in the first encore, the album version of 'Radio Free Europe' plays over the PA. When the lights come up, R.E.M. are nowhere to be seen, but there are life-size cardboard cut-outs of each band member (as well as Peter Holsapple) placed in their usual stage positions. R.E.M. then emerge from the wings, with Mike Mills announcing "April Fools". The band then perform 'Stand' alongside their cardboard companions. David Russell played conga drums on 'King Of Birds'. Michael joins the Indigo Girls on 'Kid Fears' on their opening set.

Notes:
-I have an mp3 sourced from the video of this show, and a set of tapes which I do know if they are from a lossy source.  They sound similar.
-Dropout between Heron House & Gravity (on casette version)
-On side A, Dropout before Begin The Begin & that song is cut about halfway through.  The song is repeated in it's entirety to start Side B  There is some chatter near the taper before Get Up.  Also a cough near taper during King Of Birds (cassette version)
-Lots of singing along by the crowd to the Document & Green material and the right? line in ITEOTWAWKI draws a thunderous response

Grade: C
-levels a little low but sounds ok when cranked
