Paisley Renames Upcoming Tour

January 5, 2012/by Caitlin Rantala

In December, during rehearsals and stage set-up for his upcoming tour, Brad Paisley decided to rename the show. The outing, which starts Jan. 12, is now called the Virtual Reality World Tour 2012.

“When you see plans and sketches on paper it’s one thing but to actually see it in real life is something else, and that’s what happened to me when we were in tour rehearsals. When I saw the visuals and how exciting and sometimes mind-blowing they were I just felt the tour name needed to reflect what the fans were going to see,” says Paisley. “For two hours each night of the tour they can be taken away from reality—literally.”

The run kicks-off next week with special guests CMA New Artist of the Year The Band Perry and 2011 American Idol winner Scotty McCreery. Live Nation is the national tour promoter. For ticket sales and more information visit www.bradpaisley.com and www.livenation.com.
