Kanye West, Lady Gaga tour reveals first 'Fame Kills' concert dates
In what may be one of the more unusual tour pairings in recent memory, hip-hop singer and producer Kanye West and pop-art musician Lady Gaga have revealed the first dates for their 2009-2010 co-headline venture.
Four dates have been confirmed so far on the Fame Kills Tour: November 18 at Arco Arena in Sacramento, CA; December 12 at Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, NC; December 26 at the XL Center in Hartford, CT; and January 24 at American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX.
The first ticket presales are set to begin on Tuesday, September 15. Prices will range from $39.50 to $250 for tickets to the rap-pop spectacle.
Complete dates for the U.S. tour leg are also due early next week. Lady Gaga's official Web site states that the full itinerary will be revealed on the nonexistent "Monday, September 15," so an update could be on the horizon for either Monday or Tuesday.
West announced his plans for the co-headline tour back in June, though he only revealed the full-length outing would begin this fall. The performer, praised for the high production value of his 2008 Glow in the Dark Tour, placed emphasis on his partnership with Lady Gaga, rejecting the idea of her as an opening act.
"She's talented and so incredible that she’s not an opening act," West said during a mid-June interview on daytime talk show The View. "We're doing it together, with no opening act."
"Fame Kills" itinerary:
(Dates are subject to change.)
| November 18 | Sacramento, CA | Arco Arena |
| December 12 | Greensboro, NC | Greensboro Coliseum |
| December 26 | Hartford, CT | XL Center |
| January 24 | Dallas, TX | American Airlines Center |

kanye west is an ahole - this show will tank
your only saying that because of what happend at the vma.
well, a bunch of us used to like him, but that's okay.....lady gaga can put her hamhock of a leg on somebody else's piano........ not buying the group tix we were planning on getting..... let the arrogant, POS crowd go see him......... he gets no more of our money....... his outbursts are always blamed on someone else to avoid taking responsibility for the fact that he sucks as a performer and after the VMA's, well......that was the last straw..... he did this other times before.....and made people feel like sh*t. Glad Obama threw that out there. Hope he will learn, although the BET awards will, as usual, reward his offensive and child-like behavior by some more ego stroking..... this is why African Americans never really rise, or get to be President (Obama is KENYAN and Caucasian and NOT from this crazy bunch)......they sit around and pass blame on everyone else just so that they never have to answer to blame. Self-victimization is so lame.
Anything he is on, I'm not buying. It's not about supporting or not supporting "blackness" as I am from Ghana and am Black. It's about being cordial and courteous with others. The African American community should feel shame on this, but I think they won't. Many of them do tend to always yell and rant about crazy things that make no sense.
Africans who are not into U.S. Hip Hop will surpass them, since some Africans who relate to their screwy values are just as brain dead. No Kudi for me. He's another drunk fool who runs up stairs and screams at women just because they don't call him back. This crowd really does need to be avoided. They only spread more divisiveness amongst Blacks. Gladys was right.
