Bouche - normally w/in a day the performances are available on mtv.ca Also - they usually air one song, but record 3 songs. All 3 songs are then available to view online.

Ticketmaster doesn't have anything listed, but this site does. http://www.coasttocoasttickets.com/concerts/rem_tickets.shtml Although -- this could be some kind of scalper thing -- I can't vouch for it.

I haven't seen this posted yet here. From Pitchfork... The April 1 release of R.E.M.'s Accelerate is only getting closer, and appropriately, word of a tour in its support has wasted no time in reaching the Pitchfork News desk. Of course, a new R.E.M. tour is exciting in and of itself, but it turns out we have even more to look forward to than originally expected. The opening acts on the tour will be Modest Mouse and the National, according to a Billboard.com report confirmed by representatives of R.E.M. and Modest Mouse. What a triple bill! TOUR DATES BELOW!
