REM perform at surprise gig
Rock band REM performed at a surprise one-off gig in Oxford yesterday evening.

Lead vocalist Michael Stipe and bassist Mike Mills joined their band mate Peter Buck who was onstage playing with the evening's headline act Robyn Hitchcock.

The brief, two-song performance included a rendition of their famous song 'Electrolite' in addition to a new as-yet-untitled track.

REM are currently working on their latest album which, according to Gigwise, may be released by the end of the year.
