Tha Carter III has racked up more than 3 million units in sales since its 2008 debut, making Wayne an arena-headlining act as well as an artist that can move albums.
Wayne’s new tour starts in July and runs through late August. The first date is July 27 in Scranton, Pa., at the Toyota Pavilion. From there it heads to Saratoga, NY, for a stop at the Performing Arts Center July 29; followed by Pittsburgh at the Post Gazette Pavilion July 30 and Philadelphia at Susquehanna Bank Center (across the state line in Camden, N.J.,) July 31.
August stops include Wantagh, N.Y, at the Nikon @Jones Beach Theater Aug. 1; Virginia Beach at the Verizon Aug. 2; Toronto at Molson Aug. 4 and Montreal at the Bell Centre Aug. 8.
Additional cities include Cleveland, Atlanta, Oakland, Denver, Houston and Phoenix. The last date on the schedule is Aug. 23 in Dallas at the Superpages.com Center.
For those of you who like their multi-act concerts run on a tight schedule, expect an unnamed opening act followed by Drake, Soulja Boy and Young Jeezy before Wayne takes the stage. Go ahead and memorize that order, for there will be a test on Tuesday.
Tickets go on sale June 20. For more information, click here for Lil’ Wayne’s Web site.
