Daughtry Announces Headline Arena Tour
Daughtry will launch a 36-date U.S. arena tour this fall to support the group's new studio album, Leave This Town. The opening acts will be main support Theory Of A Deadman and opener Cavo. The upcoming tour will launch October 19 in Topeka, KS before ending the first leg of the tour December 20 in Evansville, IN.
The tour announcement happens while Leave This Town continues its impressive streak of success. The album, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, has sold more than a half million copies in five weeks.. The album's first single, "No Surprise," tops No.1 on the Hot A/C chart this week. It is the band's fourth #1 hit, a rare feat for any recording artist.
After finishing a sold out club tour this month, Chris Daughtry says the band is busy preparing for its upcoming arena tour. "We dreamed about how it would feel playing these songs to packed arenas, and we're excited to get our chance," Chris says. "We have a great show planned and can’t wait to hit the road to share it with our fans."
Leave This Town is Daughtry's first album to debut at the top of the Billboard 200 and its second consecutive No. 1 album, selling 269,299 copies sold in its first week of release.

Thanks Chris for the update, cant wait till its all Ironed out and see you in Fairfax VA

Is there any news about a VIP package for this tour yet? My husband and I are going to the Peoria, IL concert. We purchased the VIP package last summer in Indianapolis and it was SO worth it...we wanted to do it again!

Looks like there are several others on here goin' to the Madison show....where your seats at? Maybe I'll see ya there! I'm showing up early (hubby don't know yet about the early part!) ; )

WOOHOO I got my tix for the November 6 show at the taj. Does anyone know if there will be meet and greet there? I need to meet them. DAUGHTRY is the best. It's my b-day weekend and I would just die if we could meet them. At least take a pic with him. OMG I can't believe I'm going. I have been to 2 of their shows in NY previously and they were GREAT!!!!!!!
Please if anyone knows about meet and greet for AC what do we do to get to do this??????
I went to the show in San Francisco and LOVED it! The show rocked and the meet & greet was unbelievable! I don't see any California dates on the upcoming 2009 tour so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that a few will be added for 2010 (with VIP tickets *hint hint*). Don't make me go through Daughtry withdrawal for too long , k guys? LOL Hope to see ya'll again soon! Love ya! =)
Relax and enjoy the time with your family and friends - it is so special! Absolutely cannot wait to see you in Connecticut this fall! (and really hoping there is VIP so I can finally meet you and the guys in person). Take care and God Bless! Christy ~
Enjoy your time off. Cherish the time with your wife and kids, and relish in the moments. Can't wait to see you guys in the fall. Looking forward to going to as many shows as I can. I am going to take my sons to one of your shows, because those are the moments I cherish, the look on their faces are priceless. The first big concert they saw were you guys and Bon Jovi and that's something they will always remember. Let the music play it forward !!

YOU WILL CONSUME ME, BUT, I CAN'T WALK AWAY !!!!!
YOU WILL CONSUME ME, BUT, I CAN'T WALK AWAY !!!!!
I did not say to check at Ticketmaster~ When you go to your venue and click "more info" then see the Onsale dates and times. If it says AEG/Venue/Radio Presale the code is SURPRISE. I actually googled AEG and found a site called Wiseguy that gave me the code! I didn't know that Chris had given it on twitter. I don't think I saw AEG/Venue/Radio Presale appear at Ticketmaster until the day before the presale. GOOD LUCK!!

No listing for the NC concert on the G'boro site directly or Ticketmaster. Am I missing something? Haven't been lucky enough to see them live yet, tickets sell out too quickly in the hometown. Any tricks to try?
Getting ready for my first, Greensboro, GA and VIP!
Got my tickets today!!
Reminder if anyone missed it~~ PRESALE CODE IS SURPRISE. Check your venue, it says aeg/ radio presale.
