REM covering The Neats

On November 10, 1983 in San Francisco, REM covered "Lies" by Boston band The Neats who were touring with them. Here's more info on this concert:
This show is particularly unique for the encores - friends Andy Gill and John King from Gang of Four, whom the band had toured extensively with joined the band to cover 'Sweet Jane', and Eric Martin from The Neats, who supported the band at this show (along with Let's Active), came out and sang his song 'Lies' with the band, the only known time this occurred.
