R.E.M. announces European leg of world tour

Recently, just a little bit of rock 'n' roll hysteria ensued when R.E.M., Modest Mouse and The National announced that this spring, they'd be going on tour...together.

Now, R.E.M. has announced a European leg of the tour this summer, which is sure to turn many fans across the Atlantic into shiny, happy people. Unfortunately, R.E.M. won't be bringing The National or Modest Mouse overseas. Everybody hurts sometimes, right? European dates are listed below the following video:
