    Except Ed has long hair, but it was pony-tailed tucked under his trucker hat and he had on dark Weezer Como glasses, and the crowd wasn't as lame as this You Tube video as they were going nuts, and Peter's hair was way longer and the rest of REM looked way different as it was '08 and not '04. Ed danced the entire time back and forth and was all over the place. Once finished he dropped a five down on Mike Mills's hand and then kissed the top of it and then ran off stage right (opposite of You Tube vid).

    Time for them to step it up in Camden as REM brought the all out music tonight. They did their Hollow Man off their new one Accelerate and when it was over Stipe said that "it was their version of Betterman and that Pearl Jam is in the house tonight."

    Get ready for a real deal big city show Jammers!

    I remember when they did this in DC at the final Vote for Change show in 2004- it was awesome- glad everyone that went to the show last night got to see it.

    It was a sublime moment! Looking forward to Camden tomorrow night.
    What are you running from?
    Taking pills to get along
    Creating walls to call your own
    So no one catches you?
    Drifting off and doing all the things...
    That we... all... do

    Edit: Sound not too good, video ok....

    Edit (2): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGyBCQXye7M

    This one is shorter, better sound and a shot from up top....listen to the crowd when Ed's part starts!
    I will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
    Oh, I'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
    I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
    Hey, I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind
