Keith Urban took to YouTube today to announce the second leg of his Light The Fuse Tour 2013, as well as the addition of three new dates to the tour’s previously announced first leg this summer. Openers Little Big Town and Dustin Lynch will continue with the run, which will now carry on through Dec. 8.

In addition to the 17-date tour extension, Urban added new shows in Austin; Albuquerque, N.M.; and at Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheater on the first half of the tour, which promises an all-new production, as well as some new songs. The first leg, now consisting of 28 outdoor amphitheatre shows, kicks off July 18 in Cincinnati.

A recent health scare and hospital stay isn't going to stop Lil Wayne from hitting the road with a few friends this summer. He will headline America's Most Wanted Music Festival alongside T.I. and Future. The tour begins July 9 in Birmingham, Ala. and runs through Sept. 1 in Irvine, Calf.

In other Young Money news, Weezy's latest album, "I Am Not a Human Being II" drops tomorrow. For more information on the festival click here, the confirmed dates and locations are below.

Rascal Flatts have announced plans to embark on a summer tour, to be called the Live & Loud tour. The 34-city run licks off May 31 in Jones Beach, N.Y., and wraps Oct. 4 in Lubbock, Texas.

Support acts on the tour will be The Band Perry (who also opened for the Flatts on their recently-wrapped “Changed” tour) and last year’s winner of NBC’s “The Voice,” 23-year-old Cassadee Pope, who is working on her debut solo album for Republic Nashville.

Here’s the full lineup of “Live & Loud” tour dates: 

Fresh off his SXSW club show in Austin last week, it looks like Prince will play a series of two-night club shows in multiple cities beginning next month. There’s been no official announcement from Prince’s camp about the tour, but his band, 3rd Eye Girl, announced several dates last night on the Prince Spreecast. The two-night stints will reportedly include an early and late show each day.

With “The History of the Eagles” documentary it was a poorly kept secret that the band would be going out this summer – and it’s finally confirmed, with the first dates being set for July, with more to come through the summer and possibly into the fall.

Fresh off winning the inaugural Grulke Prize (for Developing Non-U.S. Act) at major music festival SXSW last week, Glaswegian band Chvrches — pronounced as "churches," but spelled so as not to be confused with the actual places of worship — arrived in New York for the first time on Monday night (March 18) for two back-to-back shows at the Mercury Lounge.

Despite being released online last year with virtually no detail, their debut single, "Lies," spread like Web wildfire. Clearly aware that "Lies" likely contributed to the shows' sold-out status, the three-piece band properly played to the crowd by opening with the feel-good glitchy, soaring synth tune. Placed between guitarist Iain Cook and synth-slapper Martin Doherty, singer Lauren Mayberry — who is all small stature and delicate facial features fit for a nymph — projected with the utterly distinctive voice the city had only, until now, heard on the Internet: shrill but sweet; piercing but powerful. 

Fresh off their Doritos-fueled SXSW performance, Ice Cube, Public Enemy and LL Cool J are combining forces and taking their shows on the road with the Kings of the Mic tour. 

The trio of hip-hop heavyweights will be joined by two other influential hip-hop figures in De La Soul and Z-Trip. Well, okay, Z-Trip is more of an influential DJ (have you seen "Scratch"?) but DJs are a vital part hip-hop culture so we don't think it's too much of a stretch to label him an influential hip-hop force.

The 26-date tour begins May 23 in Tuscon, Ariz. and ends July 5 in New Orleans. Apparently there's enough flavor in this grouping of iconic rappers (as in Flavor Flaaaaaav), because unlike their sets last week in Austin, the tour is not sponsored by a snack chip. The tour dates are below as are a few video clips to remind us all of how great these rap pioneers were when they were in their primes.
