Live at the Olympia culls highlights from R.E.M.’s five-night stand at the Dublin, Ireland venue during the summer of 2007. Unlike their typical shows, the venerable alt-rockers viewed these series of sold-out gigs as “working rehearsals.” The two-disc CD/DVD set contains tracks that were still works in progress (and later became part of the band’s 14th studio effort, 2008’s Accelerate) as well as earlier classics from R.E.M.’s storied career.
