R.E.M. At Their Best., April 4, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: R.E.M. - Perfect Square (DVD)
First of all, I have to tell you that I'm not a HUGE R.E.M. fanatic...just a casual listener. When I bought this I wasn't sure I was going to enjoy it and I was proved wrong. This is a fantastic DVD and is worth every cent. R.E.M. plays a good show and this proves it. The crowd is awesome and it is so cool to see Michael Stipe interact with the crowd. The DVD consits of the bands July '03 sold - out show at Germanys out door Bowling Green Stadium and the documentary " A Stirling Performance" based on the bands legendary Stirling Castle performance in Scotland and features live and of course, documentary footage. The set is: 1. Begin the Begin 2. What's the Frequency, Kenneth? 3. Maps and Legends 4. Drive 5. Animal 6. Daysleeper 7. The Great Beyond 8. Bad Day 9. The One I love 10. All the Way To Reno(you're gonna be a star) 11. Orange Crush 12. Losing My Religion 13. At My Most Beautiful 14. Electrolite 15. She Just Wants To Be 16. Walk Unafraid 17. Man On the Moon 18. Everybody Hurts 19. So fast, So Numb 20. Country Feedback 21. ***Permanent Vacation 22. Imitation Of Life 23. It's the End Of the World As We Know It(and I feel fine) This is a wonderful DVD and a wonderful concert. I recommend this to anyone who likes R.E.M. I garuntee you'll enjoy it!

Among the best I've seen..., October 4, 2004
This review is from: R.E.M. - Perfect Square (DVD)
I really enjoy these concerts on DVD and have seen a good number of them. I usually find that I need to watch the concert twice to really get into them, but when I bought Perfect Square on a whim and saw it for the first time, I was hooked by the second song. The scenery of the concert location is beautiful, as is the stage itself. The crowd is humongous and energized. The picture and sound are both good, and the performance is fabulous. I was very impressed. It's now an easy favorite.

Are You Having Fun?!!!, March 23, 2004
This review is from: R.E.M. - Perfect Square (DVD)
I was at R.E.M.s first U.S. stop on this recent world tour when they played their first ever Montana concert here in Missoula. It was without a doubt one of the best shows I've ever seen from anyone, anywhere. Ever since that evening I was hoping that the band would release a DVD from the tour so that I could relive this concert over and over. Perfect Square is fantastic! The flow of the set list is perfect, and when they get into their biggest songs (Losing My Religion, Man On The Moon, etc.) the crowds enthusiasm and love for this band just gives you chills. Great great show. My 4 star rating is due to the busy MTV style editing, although it does not annoy the viewing too much. Still, a little too much chop chop for me. A more accurate rating would be 4 9/10 stars. Sit back, crank it up, and enjoy a great R.E.M. show!
