R.E.M. Announces 2008 North American Tour

Hot on the heels of their new CD Accelerate, to be released in the U.S. on April 1st, R.E.M. has set the first group of dates for its North American tour.

Here are the dates R.E.M. has released so far:

Vancouver, 5/23 - DEER LAKE PARK

Los Angeles, 5/29 - HOLLYWOOD BOWL

Berkeley, 5/31 - THE GREEK THEATRE

Denver, 6/03 - RED ROCKS

Chicago, 6/06 - UNITED CENTER

Toronto, 6/08 - MOLSON AMPHITHEATRE

Raleigh, 6/10 - WALNUT CREEK AMPHITHEATRE

Washington DC, 6/11 - MERRIWEATHER POST PAVILION

Boston, 6/13 - TWEETER CENTER

Long Island, 6/14 - JONES BEACH THEATER

Philadelphia, 6/18 - MANN CENTER

New York City, 6/19 - TBA

Atlanta , 6/21 - LAKEWOOD AMPHITEATRE

I'm curious about that where that 6/19 New York date is taking place... maybe it's an outdoor festival that's in the works and isn't ready to be announced (Randall's Island perhaps?)
