Depeche Mode Andrew Fletcher will head out on the road in late January for more than a dozen DJ dates in Eastern Europe, Australia and the Far East — including a gig in Beijing.

Tonight’s ‘Dark Wave’ on Sirius XM’s 1st Wave featured a number of welcome detours, lesser-played tracks from the program’s regular crop of artists, including The Church’s ‘Tantalized,’ Depeche Mode’s ‘Nothing’ and Concrete Blonde’s ‘Darkening of the Light.’

Former Joy Division bassist Peter Hook brought the U.S. leg of his somewhat controversial ‘Unknown Pleasures’ tour to a close Saturday night in Los Angeles, where he was joined onstage by Jane’s Addiction frontman Perry Farrell to perform ‘Transmission.’

Members of R.E.M.’s fan club have begun receiving their annual holiday single in the mail, and, like last year’s, the 2010 installment features the return of departed drummer Bill Berry on a cover of Darlene Love’s classic ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)’ — as well as an instrumental mashup of three tracks off the band’s forthcoming album ‘Collapse Into Now.’
