R.E.M. Tour 2008

At the risk of turning this blog into nothing but Obama and REM porn, comes the announcement straight from the band itself: REM is touring the US this summer.

Not only is this news awesome, but the cherry on top is the list of opening bands: Modest Mouse and The National.

R.E.M. and their new album “Accelerate” has given an awesome review. It must be said that it was a little suprised when everyone listened to it for the first time… and the second time… and the third time… But the more was listened is to that record, the more liked, and it was thought that is exactly a good record.
