Chesney kicks off the tour on April 18, at Arlington, Texas’ AT&T Stadium. As of Tuesday, 20 shows were scheduled, with the trek set to end on Aug. 28 at Foxborough, Mass.’ Gillette Stadium.

With the multiple week No. 1 “Get Along” from his deeply personal Songs for the Saints, benefiting the Love for Love City Fund, and the steamy “Tip of My Tongue” hovering just outside the Top 10 at Country radio, there’s a lot of new music, old favorites and surprises on tap for what will be the summer’s biggest tour.
