Dashboard Confessional has been confirmed to join Bon Jovi on their upcoming North American tour. The band will join THE CIRCLE WORLD TOUR in February 2010 and will remain on the road until the end of April 2010. The band will also be performing their own headlining dates in-between THE CIRCLE WORLD TOUR dates.
Dashboard Confessional's latest album, Alter the Ending, is currently # 19 on the Billboard Top 200. Rolling Stone gave the album four stars and Billboard says, "Alter the Ending is a perfectly blended concoction of acoustic melodies, graceful harmonies and power anthems..." Lead singer, Chris Carrabba and guitarist John Lefler are currently on an acoustic promo tour in support of Alter the Ending.
Dashboard Confessional opens for Bon Jovi's THE CIRCLE WORLD TOUR at the Bank Atlantic Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on Sunday April 18, 2010.
Multi Grammy Award winning R&B-pop vocalist Mariah Carey is ringing in the New Year with her first full-fledged concert tour in a little over three years. The 20-date ANGELS ADVOCATE Tour launches January 2, 2010 at Borgata Event Center in Atlantic City, NJ, and continues through February 27 at the Pearl Concert Theater in Las Vegas, NV.
After the January 2 opening, Carey's calendar currently has a two-week gap before she continues her tour with a January 15-16 stand at the MGM Grand Theatre in Mashantucket, CT. Other planned performances include January 30 at the Wang Theatre in Boston, MA; February 13 at Chicago Theatre in Chicago, IL; and February 23 at Gibson Theatre in Los Angeles, CA.
Carey is also bound north of the border for three engagements in Canada on February 4 at Bell Centre in Montreal, QC; February 6 at Scotiabank Place in Ottawa, ON; and February 9 at Air Canada Centre in Toronto, ON.
Opening act on the tour is new R&B group RydazNrtist, which recently signed with NCredible Entertainment, the label run by Carey’s husband, Nick Cannon.
The tour is promoting Carey's twelfth studio album "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel," which debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 after its September 29 release. The debut was slightly lower than expected as Barbra Streisand grabbed the No. 1 position in a surprising sales week. Carey's two previous albums -- 2005's "The Emancipation of Mimi" and 2008's "E=MC2" -- both nabbed the top spot on the charts.
The last time Carey launched a full-fledged tour was with 2006's THE ADVENTURES OF MIMI Tour. However, the acclaimed singer did perform a mini-residency in Las Vegas earlier this season with a pair of two-night stands at the Pearl Concert Theater on September 11-12 and October 9-10, 2009.
Before launching the 2010 tour, Carey will kick off the New Year with a December 31 concert at Madison Square Garden in New York, NY. Her special guest for the New Year's Eve show will be Trey Songz.
Mariah Carey will be bringing her ANGELS ADVOCATE 2010 Tour to the Seminole Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida on Thursday January 21, 2010.
Michael Bublé has finally confirmed the South Florida venue for his CRAZY LOVE 2010 Tour -- it will be the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida.

Well remembered by local South Florida theater goers for its phenomenal run when it opened on February 26, 1991 as the premiere presentation of the newly built Broward Center for the Performing Arts… The US Tour of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s monster hit musical THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA returns.
Based on the classic novel Le Fantome de l’Opera by Gaston Leroux, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA tells the story of a masked figure who lurks beneath the catacombs of the Paris Opera House, exercising a reign of terror over all who inhabit it. He falls madly in love with an innocent young soprano, Christine, and devotes himself to creating a new star by nurturing her extraordinary talents and by employing all of the devious methods at his command. But you probably already knew that since over 80 million people in 124 cities in 25 countries have seen the Broadway musical adaptation of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA.
The musical had its world premiere on October 9, 1986 at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London, winning every major British theatre award, including the Olivier and the Evening Standard Awards. The New York production opened on January 26, 1988, where it won seven 1988 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Worldwide, the show consistently plays to larger audiences and in longer engagements than any other musical in history.
On January 6, 2006, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA became the longest-running musical in Broadway history, surpassing CATS’ record-holding 18 year Broadway run (and 7,485 performances). The Oscar winning film adaptation was released in 2004 and starred Gerard Butler, Emmy Rossum, Patrick Wilson, Miranda Richardson and Minnie Driver.
The current tour stars Tim Martin Gleason as The Phantom, Sean MacLaughlin as Raoul and Trista Moldovan and Kelly Jeanne Grant alternate the role of Christine.
The US Tour of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, directed by Harold Prince, begins performances at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on December 23, 2009, brings in the New Year, and runs through January 17, 2010.
After a banner year of chart-topping singles and a best-selling album, the Black Eyed Peas have announced their THE E.N.D. World Tour 2010 -- their first North American headline tour in about four years.
The 32-date venture begins February 4, 2010 with a performance at Philips Arena in Atlanta, GA, and concludes April 11 at General Motors Place in Vancouver, BC. The hip-hop group's calendar also has them bound for shows on February 24 at Madison Square Garden in New York City; March 13 at United Center in Chicago, IL; and March 29 at Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA.
Besides the final date of the tour leg, the Peas have only one other performance booked north of the border. A March 6 concert has been slated for Air Canada Centre in Toronto, ON.
Though the Peas have toured around the world in 2007 and even earlier this fall, the quartet hasn't staged a North American leg since the 2006's MONKEY BUSINESS Tour. That outing featured nearly 30 concerts, including about 10 scheduled stops across the provinces.
The Black Eyed Peas are touring behind their fifth studio album "The E.N.D.," released in June 2009. The album debuted atop the Billboard 200 and was certified Platinum in a little over three months, with sales now nearing the 1.4 million mark.
In addition to their success with sales, the group has also been breaking records on the Billboard charts. The first single "Boom Boom Pow" had the distinction of being the longest-running single in the No. 1 slot on the Hot 100 with a consecutive 12 weeks. When the first single was bumped out of the top position, it was replaced instantly by another Peas track, "I Gotta Feeling." The second single went on for another record-breaking run of 14 consecutive weeks atop the chart.
The Black Eyed Peas will be at the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida on Friday February 6, 2010.
Multi-Grammy Award winner John Mayer has confirmed his anticipated North American BATTLE STUDIES 2010 Tour which starts in February and runs thru April 2010 and will feature special guest: Michael Franti & Spearhead.
The tour kicks off February 8, 2010 in North Charleston, SC at the North Charleston Coliseum then stops in at Birmingham, AL for a gig at the BJCC Arena, then February 10 brings the trucks and busses to Nashville for a Sommet Center gig. Other nights include Auburn Hills (Detroit), Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Philadelphia, Dallas, Memphis, NYC, Seattle, L.A., Atlanta and New Orleans. The final night is on April 10, 2010 in Chicago at the United Center.
"Battle Studies" is the fourth studio album from the seven-time Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter/guitar player/producer and incorporates the warmth, melodies and simplicity of 70's and 80's California rock and pop. It is said to be a confessional, relaxed and liberated album recorded in a private home in California where Mayer lived and worked over the course of six months before wrapping at the famed Capitol Studios in Los Angeles. The album was co-produced by John Mayer and Steve Jordan and was released on November 17th, 2009 on Columbia Records.
John Mayer's BATTLE STUDIES 2010 Tour will be at the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida on Thursday February 4, 2010.
Another Super Bowl, another performance from a classic rock icon. Sports Illustrated is reporting this year's halftime spectacular will feature The Who. That's right: Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend and company will provide the musical fireworks when the Super Bowl XLIV game hits Miami on Sunday February 7, 2010.
Ever since the infamous Janet Jackson/Justin Timberlake nipple fiasco in 2004, the NFL has gone with "veteran" acts and turned the reins over to one band or artist. Prior to that, there were often medleys and multiple acts, like No Doubt, Sting and Shania Twain in 2003 and the 2001 show that saw Aerosmith rocking 'Walk This Way' with Britney Spears and Timberlake. The Who certainly fit the newer mold, proving worthy successors to the recent run of Paul McCartney (2005), the Rolling Stones (2006), Prince (2007), Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (2008) and this year's performance by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.
With the matchup still far from decided, one thing is for certain -- a stadium of 80,000 people rocking out to 'Won't Get Fooled Again' will sound great no matter what.
Super Bowl XLIV will be played at the LandShark Stadium in Miami, Florida on Sunday February 7, 2010.
