Rod Stewart Ready To Rock On 2007 Tour


Here in Orlando there is a pre-sale on Friday, so if you are interested you might want to chech on a pre-sale in your town!    


Rod Stewart will kick off a 56-city North American tour Jan. 12 in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., in support of his most recent covers effort, "Still the Same... Great Rock Classics of Our Time." The arena tour will feature Stewart and his nine-piece band performing on a rotating, round stage. Tickets go on sale starting on Saturday (Nov. 11) at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster.

The entertainer will likely draw only a handful of songs from "Still the Same," and leave tracks from his four volumes of the successful "Great American Songbook" series behind.

"We're not going to be doing the Songbook on this tour," he told Billboard.com in September. "If ['Still the Same'] is half as successful as those were, we'll bring in five or six of these songs straightaway on tour." He also plans on incorporating hits from his earlier rock albums, like "Blondes Have More Fun" and "Downtown Train."

"Still the Same," released Oct. 10, became the 61-year-old singer's fourth No. 1 album, moving 184,000 copies in its first week.

I'm gonna guess you are talking about Fashion Square Mall or The Florida Mall....both still here. The Florida Mall is even larger with more than 2 million sq. ft.  IT has 6 major anchors and is a tourist mecca....

It never was the Sears Mall, I'm guessing that is just what it was called by a bunch of people...Sears is still there though!
