Kelly Clarkson and Reba McIntyre: Once in A Lifetime Tour

Kelly Clarkson and Reba McIntyre: Once in A Lifetime TourOne of the most unique and most highly anticipated tours of 2008 features the unlikely pairing of Kelly Clarkson and Reba McIntyre. If it's not odd enough to see an American Idol pop rock singer and the country music legend sharing a stage, they will be singing each other songs. This amazing tour, called 2 Worlds, 2 Voices, is set to kick off January 17, and you can bet that tickets will be almost impossible to come by.To maximize the impact of the shows, the singers are booking smaller than usual venues to help connect with the audience even better. While this may make for a more enjoyable show for the few that can get tickets, it means that many folks will be shut out. That’s why ticket brokers are the favorite choice of many music fans. They allow people to get great seats for only a small mark up in price. And when you have a remarkable combination like Kelly Clarkson and Reba McIntyre, you can’t help but get excited!This tour marks a bit of a change for Kelly in her career. The famed singer who got her start on the hit television show American Idol, recently changed management companies and looks to be taking over full control of her career. Booking this tour is one of the first things Kelly did to signal to her fans that she is expanding her musical horizons.As of the time of this writing, there are 15 dates scheduled so far, but you can bet a singer like Kelly Clarkson will be more than willing to expand this tour so that more fans can take in this remarkable duo.As for Reba, well, what can you say about such an amazing artist that hasn’t already been said? If there were a Mt. Rushmore for country music, she would be one of the faces there. Perhaps no other female singer, save Dolly Parton, has done more to popularize country music. No other genre of music sells more copies, makes more money and is more popular than country, and Reba is a big part of that. But what makes her extra special is the fact that she obviously loves other kinds of music, and the fact that she’ll be touring with one of pop music’s most popular stars and singing her songs instead of her own, well, that pretty much tells you everything you could ever want to know about Reba.Don’t miss your chance to see this once in a lifetime combination when the tour hits your town, but don’t be surprised if the vast majority of tickets are gone. This tour is sure to be one of the hottest tickets of the winter, and maybe even into the spring and summer if it ends up being a bit hit!
