GaGa Ready 4 "The Fame Ball" This Spring


Lady GaGa is set to headline her debut solo North American tour this Spring. The tour is to promote her first studio album, "The Fame" which was released in August 2008 in Canada and October 2008 in the USA.

The tour was officially announced on January 12, 2009 through Lady GaGa's official Myspace page. This will be her first headlining tour; she has previously served as opening act for New Kids on the Block's highly successful "New Kids on the Block: Live tour," as well as the Pussycat Doll's "World Domination Tour."

There will be two opening acts including The White Tie Affair and Chester French.

The North American "Fame Ball Tour" will debut in San Diego on March 12, 2009 and will wrap up in Atlanta on April 9, 2009. There are four Canadian dates including one in Vancouver on March 18, Kitchener on March 26, Ottawa on March 27 and Montreal on March 28. Surprisingly there is no date in Toronto. Maybe because she came here on November 30, 2008 for a one night fundraiser at Circa. Toronto deserves a full length concert! Come on Lady GaGa.
