I wonder what the vinyl 45 is gonna be.  Didn't think those still existed in '88.

It would be another year or 2 before they started disappearing.

Most nostaligic of set:  Jimmy the Greek.

Well, this is three times in recent memory for REM's second finest Work Song.

Least necessary because it gets plenty of exposure in regular rotation, but I am surprised to see that Dave has not played it for precisely 2 years (5/20/04).

Yikes, same exact response to "Got My Mind Set on You".

Surely that's not possible. Musta showed up in "classics" (or else Ginger's played it multiple times).

BOS for novelty alone to "Parents Just Don't Understand," which I still have 85% memorized.

Ginger has definitely played it more than once.  But I have every set, classics included, since that date from Dave.
