R.E.M. - Perfect Square

RS: 4of 4 Stars Average User Rating: 3of 4 Stars

Chronicling a 2003 gig in Germany, this live DVD shows R.E.M. as finely tuned road warriors who can still sell out stadiums without having new product to push. The band plows through twenty-three songs spanning the whole of its catalog. The DVD also includes A Stirling Performance, a documentary covering a series of 1999 gigs in a small town in Scotland, offering another glimpse of the band's good nature.
