That's my point. Where will this idiocy end? Do we have to explain
that Sweden's in Europe? Or Europe's a continent on Earth?
You may find listing the country superfluous information - However you'd be
surprised how many people confuse the Scandinavian countries - How many
times have I heard "You're from Oslo, is that the capital of Sweden?"
Besides, most events are listed that way, as they are on the events calendar
at:

Same on Metallica's concert tour for instance:
