Starting from June 20 to September 13, Wallen, who first gained recognition on "The Voice" in 2014, will perform in major stadiums across the U.S. and Canada, including key cities like Houston, Miami, Santa Clara, and Toronto. Notable opening acts include country legends Miranda Lambert and Brooks & Dunn, alongside artists like Koe Wetzel and Thomas Rhett. Ticket prices vary significantly, with the lowest starting at $186 in Houston and peaking at $10,514 for premium seats in Santa Clara. The tour schedule spans from Houston's NRG Stadium to Edmonton's Commonwealth Stadium, showcasing Wallen's broad appeal. However, not all fans are pleased; complaints include the exclusion of states like Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and New York from the tour route, alongside concerns over the high cost of tickets, some exceeding $600. Additionally, Wallen's tour comes on the heels of his 2024 legal issues, which involved a chair-throwing incident leading to probation and a DUI education program. On January 31, 2025, Wallen will release "I’m the Problem," both the album and its title track, likely adding more fuel to his already fiery career trajectory. Analytic Dreamz discusses these aspects, examining both the excitement around the tour and the controversies that continue to surround Wallen.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
