Keith Urban has Big Tour Plans in 2009

Monday December 1, 2008
Keith Urban is ramping up his tour even more in 2009, adding multiple supporting acts, including Sugarland, Taylor Swift, Dierks Bentley, Glen Campbell, Lady Antebellum, and The Zac Brown Band. The upcoming tour, which will start in May and run through the summer, comes following the release of Urban's as yet untitled 5th studio album. Tickets for the tour will go on sale early next year.

"We intend to give people their money's worth, for sure" said Urban. "We're looking forward to seeing fans' reactions to the new material, and we're seeing how we can put a few new twists on some older material. We'll play for as long as the venues will let us."

Keith recently released his second live DVD, Love, Pain & the whole crazy World Tour, available exclusively at Wal-Mart stores.

Best news I have read this week. I saw Keith three times this year. These were the best live shows I have ever seen. He is truly Entertainer of the Year. Looking forward to seeing him as many times as possible in 2009.

I keep checking Keith’s website to see if the UK has been added to the tour dates. I was really disappointed when he cancelled part of his last tour. A truly great artist.
