R.E.M. "Songs for a green world"

This is an old bootleg I have of their 1989 "Green" tour gig at Orlando.
I was able to see them 3 times in my life. In 2008 in Würzburg for an open-air, in 2005 in Oberhausen in a hall and 2001 in front of the Cologne Cathedral, which was a gig without admission fees. All concerts have been incredible.
