Duo’s 47-City Farewell Tour to Launch April 23, 2010
Nashville, TN – Superstar duo Brooks & Dunn said they weren’t about to call it a day as a recording duo without one more chance to party with their fans, and Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn are ready to do it in style with the announcement of dates for their final tour, The Last Rodeo. A celebration of their 20 great years together, the tour will launch on April 23 of next year, with 47 shows running through August 8.
Brian O’Connell, President, Nashville Touring, for Live Nation declared, “The Last Rodeo Tour is going to be a ‘must see’ for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is the amazing energy that Kix and Ronnie create on stage. I look forward to seeing what they have up their sleeves on a nightly basis, and I am confident that they will leave everything they have on the stage one final time in each city. Anyone who has ever seen a Brooks & Dunn show knows that they will be coming full tilt! I do not look at this tour as an ending, rather a celebration of their career by two of the greatest Artists that Country Music has ever known.”
The tour follows the recent release of Brooks & Dunn’s career-spanning double-disc collection, #1s … and then some, which features 30 favorites in all, including an amazing 23 #1 hits. Among the songs on #1s … and then some is the smash single, “Cowgirls Don’t Cry,” which earlier this week earned the duo their 15th career GRAMMY Award nomination.
A list of dates and markets for The Last Rodeo appears below. Ticket on-sale dates will vary, but fans be watching for updates on the duo’s website at www.brooks-dunn.com or the Live Nation website at www.livenation.com. Tickets go on-sale for Wichita at INTRUST Bank Arena on March 6th at 10am local time.
