The summer concert season is here and we have the 411 on all the hottest shows coming to town. There are so many smoking hot acts on tour that you can get summer off to a rockin’ start with a pop princess, a country vibe, or an American Idol tour.
If a down-home vibe is what you are feeling this summer Lady Antebellum, Taylor Swift, Willie Nelson or Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow, may be what it’s all about for you. This seasons concert line-up is a virtual music ala cart.
Britney Spears is rumored to be lip-syncing on her Femme Fatale tour, but her ravenous fans really don’t seem to mind. She’s making-up for the farce vocals with badass choreography, stage effects, S&M attire and of course, Nicki Minaj. Britney’s inspiration for the stage show is the femme fatales, throughout the ages. The stage show includes segments dedicated to Marilyn Monroe, motorcycle-mamas and Egyptians. It is sure to be the most manic show of the summer!
Rihanna’s smoking-hot Loud tour tickets are the guilty pleasure of the summer, for sure. With Cee-Lo-Green as show-opener for most of the tour, this concert is a must catch. Rhi-Rhi and Cee-Lo will be traversing Canada and then kicking off a leg in the states June 24-July 24. Next they’ll be in Europe, from August 17-December 22.
Katy Perry is out and about on her California Dream tour with shows all over North America and Europe with a few side trips to Brazil and Mexico. California Dream wraps-up November 22 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Taylor Swift’s Speak Now tour is already rolling with the next show being June 25th in Foxboro, Massachusetts. Her huge tour covers all the expected North American cities, with a generous helping in the South, of course.
Lady Antebellum’s Get Close tour will be doing just that, as they wind their way to every country fair between Grand Junction, Colorado and Bangor, Maine from June 18th through September 5th.
Kid Rock is sure to be tearing-it-up with Sheryl Crow on the American road this summer, while on his Born Free tour. Crow is appearing at most tour stops but deserts on a few, like in Kids’ hometown of Detroit where Sammy Hagar will be stepping in. (Crow fans might want to check beforehand to see if she’s playing your local venue.)
Willie Nelson will be cruising around on his french-fry oil run, bio-diesel bus on his Country Throwdown tour (if he can stay out of trouble long enough). Nelson’s next show is on June 23 in Del Mar, California. On Sepember 25th he winds up his long stint with a last show in Rapid City, South Dakota. Willie, the legend.
NKOTBSB is the concert to see if you are in the mood for a musical flashback. The boy bands, New Kids on the Block and The Backstreet Boys, are coming to a stadium near you. (This may be the show to take the kids to.) Matthew Morison of Glee will be the opening act, kind of sealing the deal. I know you’re curious to see if those guys are going to lip-sync and if they can really dance for two hours. It’s a curiosity show which is going to need a lot of pyrotechnics for coverup- sorry, effect.
American Idol Live! 2011 tour has 45 confirmed dates. The Top 11 of this seasons show including Casey Abrams, Naima Adledap, James Durbin, Stefano Langone, Jacop Lusk, Scotty McCreery, Paul Mc Donald, Thia Megia, Haley Reinhart, and Pia Toscano will all be strutting their stuff.
The Foo Fighters are curently on tour in Europe and won’t be back state-side until mid-September when they will be hitting all the major cities.
Shakira will be shaking her hips in Mexico July15-31 then heading off to Europe June 7-June 14th, to finish her tour with two shows in Paris.
