KEITH URBAN AND CARRIE UNDERWOOD SET TO CO-HEADLINE “Love, Pain & the whole crazy Carnival Ride Tour”

24-City Tour To Launch On January 31st

Grammy Award winners Keith Urban and Carrie Underwood are set to hit the road together in ’08, a 24-city tour that combines the music of two of the music industry’s most powerful performers. “Love, Pain & the whole crazy Carnival Ride Tour,” a name that combines the titles of each artist’s most recent album; Keith’s double platinum #1 debuting Love, Pain & the whole crazy thing and Carrie’s recent #1 debut second album Carnival Ride,” will feature 12 #1 songs (7 for Urban and 5 from Underwood). Tickets are set to go on sale as of December 1st.

“I’m looking forward to hitting the road with Carrie, and to bringing our audiences together for what I think will be a magical night of sights, sounds, songs and solos,” said Urban.

“I can’t think of a better person to begin 2008 with than Keith,” shares Underwood. “He is an amazing entertainer and a well-respected musician, singer and songwriter.”

Urban, who will release Greatest Hits: 18 Kids on November 20th, has been on the road since April in support of his #1 album Love, Pain & the whole crazy thing. In that time, he’s performed shows on three continents, to packed houses, frantic crowds and widespread critical praise. Electrifying performances and world-class production combine with songs that have helped define a career; “Somebody Like You,” “Who Wouldn’t Wanna Be Me,” “Better Life,” “Days Go By,” “You’ll Think Of Me,” “Once In A Lifetime,” as well as his latest single “Everybody,” and more.

Underwood’s new album Carnival Ride recently debuted at #1 selling over half a million copies in its first week, immediately becoming the best-selling debut of any female artist in 2007. Earning the highest debut-week sales of any sophomore country album in over a decade, the album contains four Underwood co-penned songs including its first hit single, “So Small.”

I am so excited by the idea of this tour! I just wish there were some Canadian dates *hint hint*
Toronto would be good Eye-wink

Carrie is going on tour and with Keith Urban makes it that much better. this is the best news of my life!!!!!! i can't waitttttt to see them together. <3

Did someone say Canadian dates? That would be awsome! Maybe you could make a quick detour in the summer and check out the bluff in Kelowna. Anyways have a great time, I'm sure you two will sell out where ever you go.

Oh this tour I MUST SEE, please please PLEASE make sure to play in Toronto

Come to Tampa, Florida please!!! It would be amazing to see the both of you! Please consider coming here... I know you would have a SOLD OUT concert! Thanks for your time.

You can get the tour dates on Urban's website. Looking forward to seeing you in Florida, Carrie. Congrats on everything that you have done.

COME TO EDMONTON, AB WITH KEITH URBAN WHEN YOU TOUR!
PLEASE !
=D

Carrie, you are one of my favorite singer! You never come to Montreal at Canada. You have many fans and I just want to tell you that I love your brand new CD!!!!

I think it would be amazing if you came to Albany on your tour! I drove 6 hours to see you back in September. It was definately worth it, but it would be so much nicer if you came closer!

Carrie, My family and I have followed you from day one on American Idol and we had voted for you from the get go! We couldn't wait for the next week to start voting for you again, we beleived in you THAT much! My twin girls, age 10 are going to freak out just as I am right now, when they find out I bought them tickets for Christmas(when they go on sale of course). We have waited for this for a L-O-N-G time!! We are finally able to see you. May God bless you in your career and life as much as you have your fans with your music, kindness, laughter, and that wonderful smile you have.

Dear Carrie
I am so Happy to hear your going with Keith Urban on Tour,May I suggest you get Rissi Palmer to go with you to open.She is a new country artist and needs the exposure with established country stars.She has a great voice and will add greatly to your tour you can hear her album on CMT.

This list on Blender's website continually updates the most popular music videos online.

I can't believe Carrie's almost number #1.

Does anyone know when the dates are to come out?

I love Carrie, ive been following her career since she was on idol! i love her to pieces. Her and Keith would be an awsome concert, which is why i think they should come to Brandon Manitoba!!!!!!
There are so many fans here that love them both.
Please come to Brandon, it would make me so happy to see you guys in concert!!!!

This will be an excellent tour because Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban are both very talented popular musicians. I like all the songs on Carrie's new CD, Carnival Ride, and "So small" is my favorite.Carrie is awesome. Keith is releasing his new CD, Greatest Hits: 18 Kids, on Nov. 20, which will be great, like the name says. Although I'm not a big fan of Keith, his music video, "Stupid Boy" which I think is fairly recent, shows awesome talent! I think it's about a guy who unwisely leaves his girlfriend, but when I first saw it on CMT, I thought of stupid things I've done in my life, even though I don't have a girlfriend like the guy in the video. In the video, Keith sits on a stool in a large room by himself and amazes me with his acoustic guitar and singing abilities. It's unfortunate there's only 24 dates scheduled for this tour. But I'm not an expert on the subject. Some musicians say extended touring is exhausting. Maybe some groups who tour 10 months of the year are not successful recording artists like Carrie and Keith.

You should definately consider comming to Charleston, West Virginia! = )

I think that a Concert with Keith Urban & Carrie Underwood would just be so awesome, I truly like both of these artists and think it would be amazing to see them in Winnipeg. Please come to Winnipeg, I have been following Carrie's career since she was on American Idol and just knew she would be the final one to take the title. Keith is just as amazing to listen and watch.

oh my gosh! Carrie and Keith together would be an awesome tour! i can't wait for the dates to come out hopefully they're coming near me =D

I don't like Keith Urban....Carrie should go alone or with Taylor Swift....now that would be a hawt concert!

PiiNK iiSN'T JUST A COLOR!
iiT'S AN ADiiTUDE!!

i love carrieeeeeeeeeeeee i have to see her in concert

Carrie you have got to come to the Twin Cities and play for us. I just went to Keith's concert last night with Gary Allen and it was packed. Think of how many more you could bring in. Ask Keith how much fun he had with us last night! I hope you and your crew consider!

Carrie is wwaayy to good for Keith, I mean she is one of the greatest singers on earth

Carrie, there is nothing in Louisiana! Come to Alexandria, or Lake Charles so some of the small town people can see their favorite singers!

Or you could do a USO concert in Ft. Polk...That would be AWESOME!

It's so exciting that you are touring with Keith Urban! You are both amazing and I'm sure you will be amazing as a pair! I saw on Keith's website that the tour may be coming through Kansas City and that is so exciting! I can't wait! Garth Brooks just put on 9 sold out shows here and I'm sure with your trusty fans you could sell out 9 shows in the same city as well!

Also, congratulations on the two awards you won tonight! You deserved them! Hope you're having fun!

I am looking forward to seeing Carrie on tour....it doesn't matter to me who she tours with.
