The Official Dwarf REM fav song:

 

[Go]

Man on the Moon is my favorite but I do not really celebrate R.E.M.'s entire catalog.

I love "Bang and Blame", pretty much Monster is one of my fav of their albums.

 

[Brangus]

Losing my Religon and Man on the Moon....hard not to sing along to those on the interstate, albeit different tones to the two.

This is a pretty cool segment from the British show The Whistle Test about some of the NC bands back in 1985. Has The Connells, Fetchin' Bones, and The Othermothers.

The Othermothers were cool

 

[PhilliesDeacs]

Try Not To Breathe is prob my favorite, although Half a World Away is great too

I was gonna mention this song too but since it's a cover I opted not to include it.

The Othermothers were cool

I liked the Connells back in the day, "Fun and Games" and "Boylen Heights" in particular. I will admit, though, that they haven't held up well at all for the most part. Actually put them on my iPod a few months ago and quickly had to remove them.

I too remember liking the Connells at the time. I put that into the "what was I thinking?" file.

I was never into the connell's but did listen to Let's Active for a while...

Let's Active was terrific. Mitch could actually play unlike his proteges in REM.

I saw REM open for the Police at JFK in Philadelphia. August 1983
