    Darius Rucker

     

     

    Darius Rucker 2009 has been unstoppable! His country hit "Don't Think I Don't Think About It" hit No.1, he's picked up a gold album, and now he will be hitting the road with Rascal Flatts!

    "It’s fitting that I’m going with those guys, because we’re so much alike," Darius told national radio show GAC Nights: Live From Nashville. "We’re gonna play golf every day and drink some beers and have some good times and play some music and play some practical jokes on each other. It’s gonna be a good time, and it’s one of those things where a lot of opportunities came up for me to tour this year, and when the Rascal Flatts one came up, I was very excited because I knew that not only was it gonna be a great show, but it was gonna be a lot of fun."

    The American Living Unstoppable Tour begins June 5 in St. Louis with at least two stadium shows scheduled, including a July 18 stadium date at the Chicago Cubs’ ballpark, Wrigley Field.
