They're playing Europe between shows 3 and 4, but those shows haven't been announced yet.

 I may make this one if if Leary plays. Seth or anybody else in the know about this yet? Gotta have Leary:
 
 Straight from the surfers website:
 
 Butthole Surfers will be playing shows on the east
 coast and Europe this summer.
 For these shows, Jeff Pinkus will be on bass and
 Teresa Taylor (along with King Coffey) on drums. This
 is the rhythm section the band had for most of the 80s
 and marks the first time this line up has played
 together since 1989.
 
 Paul Leary has prior commitments and unfortunately
 can't play the European dates (he will be on stage for
 the New York City show and possibly more stateside).
 
 However, fear not, our European friends. Joining the
 band onstage for all shows in the US and Europe will
 be The Paul Green School of Rock All-Stars. This mob
 of teenage geniuses will blow your mind, forming a
 virtual Butthole Surfers Orchestra when they play with
 Gibby and company.

anyone who has seen gwar's "phallus in wonderland" knows that gibby and children should not go together.

Teresa will not be playing on this tour after all.
 
 Paul will be playing the US shows after Europe (Newmarket, New Hampshire, on July 28 and NYC, July 29th), but it looks like he probably won't play the June US dates.  He still hasn't committed one way or the other on those dates, so it's conceivable he might play one or more of them.  It's not looking too likely, though.  
 
 The confirmed lineup for the June shows is Gibby, Jeff, and King, with the School of Rock All-Stars.

They're in NYC now rehearsing for the shows.  Teresa is back in the lineup, and Paul Leary is playing all of the US and UK shows.  It's the full 80s lineup, plus the SOR kids.

Sweet!

The set is 22 songs, and there's only one Pinkus [the last member to join the band] didn't know.  They're playing old songs.
