New Years Eve 30 Years Ago: It was Thirty Years Ago Today (with Love Tractor and Guadalcanal Diary supporting) the one and only time R.E.M. ever played the Atlanta Civic Center, and adeptly chronicled by The R.E.M.

Central Rain (Im Sorry) / Laughing / Harborcoat / Auctioneer (Another Engine) / Talk About The Passion / Driver 8 / Pretty Persuasion / Gardening At Night / Atlantis / Wendell Gee / Shaking Through / (Dont Go Back To) Rockville / Jimmy Crack Corn - Little America encore: Moon River / We Walk - After Hours / Crazy / Wild Thing notes: The only known time Old Man Kensey has opened a show. In between Gardening At Night and Atlantis midnight strikes. Bagpipe music (unknown song), followed by chiming bells, and an instrumental rendition of Auld Lang Syne (with the bells and the Auld Lang Syne possibly being prerecorded) indicate the beginning of 1985.
