An REM thread for r.e.m. stuff

Years ago, probably 1990, I came across the boot Carnival of Sorts which is a great live recording from '82. Of the hundreds of cds I own -- and have had slip out of my hands -- it's the one that shattered. I would LOVE to hear it again. Would someone be kind enough to post it?

I don't have anything to contribute that isn't already posted in this thread, however there are some great boots here (R.E.M., Moz, Placebo... many more):

Etrue, you are my new best friend. "We're R.E.M... Have a nice evening." Man, that really brings me back. I've been searching for an original copy of this boot to replace the one that broke for years. Came close on eBay a few years back. Anyway, thank you, thank you!
 
I just found this thread and I'm overjoyed and amazed. You guys are just so generous and kind; almost makes you believe in the human race (but then again, we're Morrissey fans as well). While most of the download links are dead by now, knowing that I have access to your good hearts has me all excited about the prospects of completing my collection.

I hate Sendspace, so as a "Hi! I'm new and I'm grateful you exist!" gift to all of you, I've uploaded some of my rarer files to this free storage site I just found. They're supposed to be kept there for 30 days.

http://www.4shared.com/dir/3912096/a5329e91/REM.html

In the folder are:

1. Billy Bragg with REM- You Woke Up My Neighborhood
2. Vic Chestnut & Michael Stipe - Guilty by Association
3. REM with Neil Young - Ambulance Blues (1999 Bridge school benefit)
4. REM - All Tomorrow's Parties (1986 Velvet Underground cover).
5. REM & Billy Bragg - My Youngest Son Came Home Today (1991)

Thank you all for sharing! See you around this thread (and, hopefully, in some of the NYC Moz shows).

Have you seen the spoof on "It's the end of the world as we know it" yet? Too funny. Sorry I can't post it (yet) as youtube is blocked where i'm at.
