STING 3.0

STING 3.0

Carter B. Smith

BILLBOARD CANADA UPDATE (3/18):

Sting has added a third date at Toronto's Massey Hall, and will now play the venue on Sept. 21, 22 and 24. The general on-sale for the new Sep. 24 date will begin Friday, March 22 at 10am local time on sting.com.


Sting, who was a member of a pretty famous trio back in the day with The Police, is returning to a similarly stripped down configuration for his Sting 3.0 tour.

The vocalist/bassist will be joined by longtime touring mate, guitarist Dominic Miller, and drummer Chris Maas (Mumford & Sons), on the North American theater tour presented by Cherrytree Music Company and Live Nation.

The tour will start Sept. 17 at the Fillmore in Detroit and play 12 markets before wrapping in Los Angeles on Nov. 13. The tour includes multiple dates in each city, including three nights at the Brooklyn Paramount Theater in Brooklyn, NY, and two nights at Toronto’s Massey Hall. The three-piece will perform songs from the 17-time Grammy winner’s solo career, as well as his time leading the Police.

It’s a busy touring time for Sting, who will play San Diego’s Petco Park with Billy Joel on April 13, as well as continue on a European arena tour for much of the summer before the kick-off of this fall’s theater tour.

Tickets go on sale Friday (March 15) at sting.com to the general public, while tickets are already available to members of Sting’s Fan Club on the site.

Ludacris Exits Rock the Country Lineup Following Fan Backlash

The rapper was originally announced as part of the lineup earlier this month.

Ludacris has spent years “Pimpin’ All Over The World,” but he won’t be doing so on the Rock the Country tour this summer.

On Friday (Jan. 16), Rolling Stone reported that the Grammy-winning rapper’s name had been removed from the lineup announcement poster. According to the magazine, the “My Chick Bad” MC “wasn’t supposed to be on” the lineup in the first place. Representatives for the traveling festival confirmed the news, directing Billboard to Ludacris’ team “for any additional comments.”
