Actor Michael Shannon will tour again, performing REM songs.
On February 14, Shannon will begin his second tour inside of a year devoted to R.E.M. It will take him to more than a dozen cities in the US. Interest in the shows has been so high, with some tickets for a stop in Athens, Georgia, on the secondary market going for north of $600, that dates have been added in England as well.
And most of the songs they are performing come from the early years of REM’s catalog.
