Blake Shelton's Headlining Tour Resumes This Week

Blake Shelton will be kicking off the next leg of his "All About Tonight Tour" in Wisconsin on Friday. Shelton is excited about getting out on the road to entertain. His latest set of dates follow his 2010 headlining trek, and Blake says his goal is to continue to do right by his fans. He explains, quote, "They made last year the best year of my life and I hope to make each night of this tour one of the most memorable nights of their lives." Blake notes he's hoping the series of shows will help him prep for co-hosting the ACM Awards "with the queen of country music, Reba." He adds that there's "no better practice" for the awards event than performing for his fans, because they are, quote, "always great at keeping me on my toes." Shelton's trek will wrap up on May 7th in his home state of Oklahoma. Along the way opening acts will include Easton Corbin, Steel Magnolia, The Band Perry and Chris Young.

Blake's fiancée Miranda Lambert and Ronnie Dunn will announce the nominees for the ACM Awards on February 1st in Nashville. The 46th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards will be given out in a ceremony live from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on April 3rd at 8:00 p.m. on CBS.
