He’ll begin his tour in St. John’s on April 11 and end in Winnipeg on June 22. He’ll be in Toronto at the Air Canada Centre on May 3.

On his Twitter account, the rocker known for Cuts Like a Knife and Straight from the Heart, posted Thursday that he’s “excited about the Canadian tour! 20 years since the last cross country tour. (have done lots of CDN tours, but not like this,coast to coast).”

Tickets for the public go on sale Monday. Presales have begun and end Thursday.

The Canadian rocker’s last nationwide tour was his Waking up the World tour in 1992.

Il successo di Irina Shayk sembra davvero inarrestabile. Dopo essere diventata l’ambasciatrice del brand Intimissimi e l’invidiatissima fidanzata di Cristiano Ronaldo, la Shayk ha fatto perdere la testa anche ad un noto brand americano che l’ha scelta per la nuova campagna pubblicitaria primavera estate 2012. Guess Jeans, il brand più giovane e casual del gruppo Guess, ha puntato tutto sulla splendida modella russa, già testimonial della collezione primavera estate 2012 di Replay, per gli scatti della sua nuova collezione realizzati, per l’occasione, da un fotografo un po’ particolare: il cantante Bryan Adams.
La sfolgorante carriera di Irina Shayk non ha preso il volo solamente grazie alle campagne pubblicitarie realizzate per Intimissimi ma anche per l’advertising di Armani Exchange del 2010. Il backstage fu galeotto per Irina e Cristiano Ronaldo che si sarebbero conosciuti proprio sul set del servizio fotografico per il brand di Re Giorgio.
Dopo aver prestato la sua immagine a Guess nel 2008, Irina Shayk torna protagonista dell’advertising primaverile della linea Guess Jeans in cui è stata immortalata in tutta la sua bellezza e sensualità. Non c’è molto di innovativo in questi scatti, il messaggio che anche un capo pratico e casual come il jeans può rendere sensuale una donna è il concetto chiave di molte campagne dedicate al denim, ma devo ammettere che in queste foto non c’è davvero nulla fuori posto.
La scelta più curiosa di questa campagna fotografica è il fotografo. Del resto Bryan Adams è un cantante famosissimo e non mi aspettavo certo di trovarlo autore di fotografie di moda. Eppure il cantautore si è dimostrato all’altezza del compito, regalandoci degli scatti femminili e sensuali, in pieno stile Guess. Anche se, con una modella come Irina Shayk, è difficile sbagliare, non trovate?

Difficult as it may be to believe, Bryan Adams hasn't done a cross-country Canadian tour in 20 years. That will be rectified with a 20-city/20-show tour that stops at the Bell Centre April 17.

Adams's most recent live outings have been unplugged. The Bare Bones acoustic tour found him revisiting his hits in a stripped-down format. This time, however, it's an arena-rock tour with a full band that includes guitarist Keith Scott, drummer Mickey Curry, keyboardist Gary Breit and bassist Norm Fisher.

Tickets go on sale Saturday at noon. Prices range from $30.50 to $109.50. Phone 514-790-2525 or visit evenko.ca to reserve.

Bryan Adams has finally set his sights on a Canadian tour - and he has 20/20/20 vision.

The veteran pop-rocker and his band will play 20 shows in 20 cities from Newfoundland to British Columbia this spring and summer on his first national trek in over 20 years.

Adams’ three-stage tour kicks off April 11 in St. John’s and covers six cities in Atlantic Canada and Quebec. In May, he hits Ontario for seven shows, including a May 3 gig at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre. In June, he wraps up with seven more shows in the West, ending with a June 22 concert in Winnipeg. See below for a full list of dates, cities and venues.

Tickets for the Quebec and Atlantic shows go on sale Saturday, Feb. 4 at Ticketmaster and livenation.com. Seats for all the other shows will be available Monday, Feb. 6. Most seats will cost between $20 and $95 before taxes and fees. Various pre-sale and VIP packages are also available.

The Ontario-born, Vancouver-raised singer-guitarist’s most recent studio album was 2008’s 11, which he followed up with a lengthy run of solo acoustic concerts. He is reportedly working on a new studio album due later this year.

BRYAN ADAMS' 1st Cross Canada Tour in 20 years!

20 Cities - 20 Shows

Tickets starting at just $20!
TUESDAY, MAY 8, 2012
ESSAR CENTRE – SAULT STE MARIE

Doors: 7:00PM Show: 8:00PM


Live Nation is thrilled to announce Bryan Adams' 1st Cross Canada Tour in over 20 years. He won't be just “Waking up the Neighbours” - he'll be waking up the whole damn country!

Not since the release of the multi-platinum Waking up the Neighbours album and 1992's Waking Up the World tour, has Adams gone coast to coast in his home country - 20 cities - 20 shows!

"Bryan Adams has singularly had one of the biggest, most commanding impacts on the Canadian music industry. We are thrilled to be able to bring Bryan and his band to so many cities across Canada to celebrate such a legacy of hits and share them with so many people. They are going to be remarkable nights, each and every one” said Paul Haagenson, President of Live Nation Canada.

Adams has been performing his critically acclaimed "Bare Bones" acoustic show in recent years that offered a new found appreciation and perspective to what many consider to be some of the most beloved songs in pop/rock music. This tour marks a grand return to his full band, arena rock show, alongside his longtime band, including guitarist Keith Scott, drummer Mickey Curry, Keyboardist Gary Breit and bassist Norm Fisher.

As he did 20 years ago, Adams kicked off the tour to sold out crowds in the UK;

"It was a greatest hit of a set that delighted with its scope and delivery." (Liverpool)

"Never mind Waking Up the Neighbours, Bryan Adams ...woke up the Arena ...classic Adams..sheer class throughout." (Newcastle)

"Judging by his latest live show there'll be no sleep for the next 20-years ...Adams has the best rock voice on the planet” (Sheffield)

The Canadian tour kicks off April 11th in St. John's, Newfoundland with One Night Only Concerts across Canada, wrapping on June 22nd in Winnipeg.

This first cross Canada tour in 20 years will mark a legendary homecoming for our nation's concert stages by our nation's greatest rock 'n' roll artist - Bryan Adams.





About Bryan Adams:

As Canada's best-known cultural ambassador, singer/songwriter Bryan Adams has spent the last three decades making music history. He has toured six continents and achieved #1 status in over 40 countries around the world. With hits that truly need no introduction - "Cuts Like A Knife," "Summer of 69," "Kids Wanna Rock," "Can't Stop This Thing We've Started," "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You," "Open Road" and "Thought I'd Seen Everything," Adams' status as of the great songwriters of our time has been solidified.

Adams has received the Order of Canada and the Order of British Columbia, was recognized as "Artist of the Decade," has been inducted into the Juno Hall of Fame and is a recent recipient of the Allan Waters Humanitarian Award. He has a star on Canada's Walkway of Fame and his handprint has been added to Wembley's Square of Fame in celebration of his 25th show at the famed stadium. He is the proud recipient of the Governor General's Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Achievement and in 2011 Adams received a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Adams recently collaborated with UK's Loverush to produce the #1 dance track in the UK "Tonight in Babylon." The EP will be released in Canada, the U.S. and the UK in March, preceded by a February release in Europe.

With his distinctive vocals, Bryan Adams' take on rock 'n' roll has found a niche that has lasted for over 30 years. His live concerts have established him as one of the best rock singers of our time.

Vancouver audiences’ last hit-laden performance by Bryan Adams was at the PNE’s 100th anniversary concert series back in the Summer of 2010.

Now North Van’s biggest star is touring Canada for the first time since the 1992 Walking Up the World Tour. Billed by promoters Live Nation as “20 cities - 20 shows - Tickets starting at just $20” the cross-country roadshow commences on April 11 at St. John’s, NL, Mile One Centre and finishes on June 22 at the MTS Centre in Winnipeg, MB.

The Vancouver date at Rogers Arena is on June 16. Tickets: $20, $45, $75 and $95 plus charges are on sale at livenation.com, ticketmaster.ca, Rogers wireless box office and charge by phone at 1-855-985-5000

“It’s a killer new production that they have been working with and an evening of hits all night long by one of Canada’s greatest singers and entertainers,” says Paul Haagenson of Live Nation. “An incredible legacy in one night. And special that it is part of a 20 city coast-to-coast tour, first time he’s done that in 20 years.”

Unlike his soldout solo acoustic shows of the past few decades, Adams is touring with his longtime crack band including guitarist Keith Scott, drummer Mickey Curry, keyboardist Gary Breit and bassist Norm Fisher. Fans can expect a set list full of hits from throughout his multi-platinum career including “Cuts Like a Knife,” “Can’t Stop This Thing We’ve Started,” “(Everything I Do) I Do It For You” and perhaps even his recent #1 dance track collaboration with the UK’s Loverush, “Tonight in Babylon. The tour will be preceeded by an EP of this tune and others due for March 5 digital release in Canada.

“He’s been doing a bare bones version of the single and there is a rock version too, but I won’t make any promises,” says manager Bruce Allen. “Bryan’s been on my a-- about putting together a cross-Canada tour for a long time, really been driving it. He’s been doing the bare bones and really liking it, but we did a full band tour of the UK and he loved it. He’s also been reading about the rising ticket prices and wanted to see us offer a $20 bottom price to fans. It works great with the whole first cross-Canada tour in 20 years of 20 cities.”

Adams last local performance earned gleaming reviews across all media outlets as he proved time and time again that he possesses not only one of the best rock voices in Canadian music history but also a tendency to enjoy cutting loose a lot more when he’s plugged in and turned up.

EDMONTON - Bryan Adams is plugging in his guitar again.

After two solo acoustic appearances in Edmonton, the Vancouver native and his band will rock Rexall Place on Tuesday, June 19. Tickets range from $20 to $95 plus service charges. They’ll be available at Ticketmaster as of Monday.

The show is part of what is being billed as his “1st Cross Canada Tour in over 20 years” by Live Nation — but he’s been a regular visitor to Edmonton in recent years. Adams performed at Rexall in 2006, and played two acoustic shows at the Winspear Centre in 2009 and 2010.

The 52-year-old rocker and photographer recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of his 1991 album, Waking Up The Neighbours, which featured such hits as Can’t Stop This Thing We Started and (Everything I Do) I Do It For You.

While he’s obviously a rock icon, Adams has also made a few forays into the dance world. His raspy vocals can be heard on Chicane’s 2000 trance tune, Don’t Give Up, and a new single by LoverushUK, Tonight In Babylon.

Rising electro-pop star Rich Aucoin is dying to keep touring.

The Halifax musician will perform Wednesday, March 7 at the Starlite Room — or about five months after his last Edmonton stop.

Tickets are $12 at primeboxoffice.com and Blackbyrd Myoozik. On sale Friday.

Aucoin is currently promoting his breakthrough album, We’re All Dying To Live, which was recorded with the help of 500 friends and musicians across Canada.

The Reverend Horton Heat will preach from the Book of Rockabilly on Saturday, May 12 at The Starlite Room. The Texas artist and his band will be joined by Vancouver’s bagpipe punks, The Real McKenzies. Tickets are $25 plus service charges. On sale Friday at Prime Box Office, Brixx Bar & Grill and Blackbyrd Myoozik.

Im Juli dieses Jahres wird der "Summer of '69" in den Sommer 2012 verlegt: Der kanadische Musiker Bryan Adams gastiert für zwei Auftritte in Österreich und wird dabei wohl auch seinen größten Hit mit im Gepäck haben. Fans dürfen sich auf die Konzerte am 5. Juli in der Wiener Stadthalle und tags darauf in der Salzburg- Arena freuen.
Man hätte meinen können, dass Adams mit seinen 51 Jahren ein wenig häuslicher wird. Schließlich ist er seit April Vater der süßen Mirabella Bunny. "Ein Kind zu haben, ist einfach unbeschreiblich. Es ist wie ein großes, wunderbares Licht", schwärmte er erst unlängst. Dennoch bleibt er ein Nomade und setzt seine Endlos- Tournee auch 2012 fort. "Meine Tour wird niemals aufhören", schmunzelt er selbst.

Vielleicht begleitet ihn ja diesmal seine 20 Jahre jüngere Freundin Alicia mit dem Töchterchen – damit sich die Kleine schon mal an das Nomadentum ihres Vaters gewöhnt. Tickets gibt es ab sofort unter 01/960 96 999.

Bryan Adams gibt immer noch alles - © APA (dpa)

Im Juli dieses Jahres wird der "Summer of '69" in den Sommer 2012 verlegt: Der kanadische Musiker Bryan Adams gastiert für zwei Auftritte in Österreich und wird dabei wohl auch seinen größten Hit mit im Gepäck haben. Fans dürfen sich auf die Konzerte am 5. Juli in der Wiener Stadthalle und tags darauf in der Salzburg Arena freuen.

Bryan Adams, Sohn britischer Eltern, im November 1959 in Kingston (Kanada) geboren und in England, Israel und Portugal aufgewachsen, bekam 1980 seinen ersten Plattenvertrag. Der Singer-Songwriter erreichte mit dem Debüt-Album "Bryan Adams" weltweite Beachtung. Das erste Platin kassierte der Kanadier für sein drittes Album Cuts Like A Knife. Den weltweiten Durchbruch brachte Reckless, eine LP, die 12 Millionen Mal verkauft wurde. Mit dem Best-Of-Album "So Far So Good" und den Bestseller-CDs "Waking Up The Neighbours," "18 Til I Die" sowie dem MTV-Unplugged-Album reihte sich Bryan Adams dann endgültig in die Elite der Rock-Superstars ein.

The Music Center at Strathmore in Bethesda, MD, was a perfect place for Bryan Adams to stop on “The Bare Bones Tour.” Bryan Adams entertained the crowd with his vocals, acoustic guitars, harmonica and a little help from a talented pianist. Still Bryan was able to rock out a few numbers and dug deep into his musical library to please his die hard fans. Adams interacted with the crowd, showed a sense of humor, and upgraded the seats of two lucky fans during his two hour set featuring 26 songs.

Bryan Adams has been writing songs for over 30 years. In the 80s, he was a star with his pop rock songs. In the 90s, Bryan reached success with high charting ballads. His catalog of music gave him plenty to choose from. Certainly the arrangements would be changed to fit this stripped down tour. The songs performed solo or with an accompanist made the performances much more intimate, and at times more interactive with the audience.

Bryan went back to his 1984 hit album “Reckless” to open the show with “Run to You” followed by “It’s Only Love.” With these songs Adams set the tone, yes the rock songs might be stripped down but they are still going to rock. Fans looking for wonderful arrangements of his hit ballads were not disappointed. He included the Academy Award and Golden Globe-nominated number one hit “(Everything I do) I Do It for You.” He also included the hit ballad “Please Forgive Me.” Purists may not have liked his version of this song, because he sang half of the song as a country song.

Throwing in half of “Please Forgive Me” as a country song showed only part of Bryan Adams sense of humor – which he let shine in the intimate setting. He dedicated the love song “I’m Ready” to a vocal female fan in the audience. Halfway through the show he picked out two far away fans in the back upper balcony and moved them up front. Someone shouted out “Freebird” so Bryan covered a verse of the southern rock classic.

Bryan shared colorful antidotes through out the evening, and fans got to see a different side of Bryan Adams they may not have seen on other tours.

Gary Breit was exceptional on the piano when he joined Bryan Adams. Standing out on many songs, especially “(Everything I do) I Do It for You” and on Adam’s chart topping “Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?” to highlight just a couple. Gary played his role perfectly showing his virtuosity while taking nothing away from Bryan. Instead, Gary complimented and added to Adam’s music and acknowledged the crowd with appropriate bows.

Rocker Bryan Adams doing dance records may sound strange, but don't you remember the amazing track he did with Chicane "Don't Give Up"? Or the fierce rerub of "Run to You" by Pascal? New for 2012, Bryan teams up with UK producer/promoter extraordinaire Loverush UK for the subtle yet anthemic "Tonight in Babylon." Bryan's voice is a bit more gravely and husky than I remember but it works well as a foreboding countermeasure to the gorgeous uplifting track. Mixes by Ronski Speed / Stoneface & Terminal, Steve Smart & Westfunk, Roger Shah, Protoculture and Timothy Allan are solid across the board which makes it hard to choose a favorite. Listening to the original track, it feels like a perfect song to close the night with. Watching the apocalyptic video confirms that notion.
