Recorded by Rich B., transferred and digitally mastered by neil d

Notes:
Rich B., aka Stonecutter, recorded hundreds of shows in New York in the '80s and '90s, and traded for hundreds more. Until recently, many of these have been stacked up in trays and trays of DATs and cassettes in his basement, never shared beyond a relative handful of tape trades back in the day. Through his generosity, a few of us are helping to digitize and share these hidden gems. No one can say how many of these there will be, as we haven't hit bottom yet.

As part of their Lifes Rich Pageant tour, R.E.M. played two nights at the Felt Forum (underneath Madison Square Garden), both of which Rich recorded. This is the second night — a couple of other sources of this exist (albeit not on Dime in recent history), at least one of them only partial, but this is the first digital transfer from Rich’s master cassette, with tons of then-new songs, songs that wouldn’t show up on record until Document the following year, and weirdo covers.
