Just got the trailer video that previews This is Not a Show, a film by Vincent Moon and Jeremiah (the bonus DVD to R.E.M.'s Live at the Olympia.)
The two-CD set, produced by Jacknife Lee, features 39 songs that capture the best moments from the band’s 2007 “working rehearsals” at Dublin’s fabled Olympia club where Michael Stipe, Peter Buck, and Mike Mills tested out new songs for R.E.M.’s 2008 studio album Accelerate.
Live At The Olympia will be unleashed on the U.S. on October 27th via Warner Bros. Records.

R.E.M. LIVE AT THE OLYMPIA
Living Well Is The Best Revenge
R.E.M. will release a brand-new double live album, entitled R.E.M. Live At The Olympia on October 27th, 2009 via Warner Bros. Records. The two-CD set, produced by Jacknife Lee, features 39 songs that capture the best moments from the band’s 2007 “working rehearsals” at Dublin’s fabled Olympia club where singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, and bassist Mike Mills tested out new songs for R.E.M.’s 2008 studio album Accelerate.
The material was tested were five nights before fired-up, capacity crowds comprised of fan-club members, friends, family, and fans from all over the world who were privy to R.E.M.'s so-called “experiment in terror,” as guitarist Peter Buck puts it. “We were just trying to do something we hadn't done before," Buck says, "which meant there was no relaxing during the set. Every second we were playing something we didn't know all that well. Which was kind of good — there were all kinds of terror elements going on during that show."
