No Charlotte for the first time on a Carrie tour. Looks like I'll be going to Greensboro. Its always iffy buying a concert ticket for a 2 hour drive in February here. We could be 50 and sunny or in an ice/snow storm. I'll take my chances for Carrie tho. Lol... Tell me about it. I live in New England.

2/5 - Louisville, KY 2/17 - Pittsburgh, PA
No dates between those shows, but guess what is scheduled between them? The Grammys.

Does anyone know if there are HQ versions of the pics from the Storyteller album booklet anywhere? I have the digital copy, but I work for a sign/printing company and I'm trying to print a poster of one of them to hang on my wall, but the pics are blurry when I blow them up! I'd also like to use one of them as the wallpaper on my phone!

I'll be really annoyed if they announce a date in CT on the second leg of the tour. I'm obviously getting tickets for the Boston show and doing the 2.5 hour drive... She has never not done in a show in CT, and her CT shows were always part of the first half, so I never had to worry... Ugh!!!

Look at the size of Carrie's stage! That's massive! The only stage I've ever seen close to that is Reba's 1996 tour! Attachment Deleted

Is that the confirmed stage set up? How is that even available if tickets aren't yet?

Ugh, why Carrie? Why? The closest she'll be to me is 3 hours...which is fine in and of itself but that's during my finals week. I can't go to a concert during my finals week. :(

Carrie said on Ellen she hopes to take most of the Summer off. So I'm thinking there will be a Fall leg announced later.

For the Boston show it shows a more conventional set-up, so I don't think it's official. That's probably how it'll look, for the most part, but I don't think that's the official set-up because there's a different picture in each city... Also, here's HDD's update. They seem pretty confident in their prediction of 5SOS get #1, but their prediction for 5SOS decreased and Carrie's increased... There's still 2.5ish days of sales left, and Carrie had Ellen today and has Kimmel tonight. I don't think it's impossible for Carrie to pull this off! *fingers crossed* TOP 15: 5SOS FEELS THE POWER Capitol’s 5 Seconds of Summer will score their second #1 album on Friday, as Sounds Good Feels Good bests 19/Arista’s Carrie Underwood for the top spot. Adele’s 21 re-enters the Top 15 on the strength of her exploding new single, “Hello,” from her forthcoming 25. Not included here, but surely a Top 15 contender, is a new acoustic album from MCA Nashville’s Sam Hunt. Released today, Between the Pines currently sits at #3 on the iTunes chart. Here’s how it looks at midweek. *5 Seconds of Summer (Capitol) 175-185k album, 185-195k SPS *Carrie Underwood (19/Arista Nashville) 155-165k, 165-175k *Blake Shelton (Warner Bros.

This album has left me thoroughly confused as to Carrie's drinking habits:
"Dirty Laundry" Well, you drink beer and whiskey, boy, and you know I don't drink red
"Heartbeat" Red wine, good times, no I don't mind being with everyone else
"Smoke Break" I don't drink, but sometimes I need a stiff drink
"Like I'll Never Love You Again" You're gonna run out of cigarettes, and we're gonna run out of wine
Then songs like "Relapse" make you question whether previous references to alcohol were literal or metaphoric. Which is it, Carrie? Do you drink Merlot or not? Is life just one big margarita to you? What a brain-teasing, emotional roller coaster you've put your listeners through...

So, she wont be able to make it to the Idol finale? :/ Idol finales are either on Wednesdays or Thursdays (IDK anymore, the show's changed its schedule so many times), and she's got both Wednesday, May 25 and Thursday, May 26 off. There's not a chance that she won't be at the finale. All of the winners will be. I'm not worried.

It's the single reason she gets to do what she does. I don't know her personally, but I know her well enough to say confidently that she'll be there to say goodbye to the show that truly gave her everything should could have ever wanted, and so much more!

Speaking of Idol, they absolutely MUST have her as a mentor one week with the contestants having to perform a song from her catalog! They did it for Kelly this past season, so it's Carrie's turn!

I'm probably in the minority here but Heartbeat is contending to be my favorite song in the album. I just think it's great, and only seems right for the second single.

That explains why I don't care for Heartbeat.

Don't know what the single choices are but Heartbeat is my second choice as well. It's not my favorite song on the album by a...country mile but it's definitely the catchiest. It's always in my head. That's what usually takes precedence when choosing singles, no?
Anyway, damn you Carrie for being the straw that broke the camel's back and getting me to buy my first Sam Hunt album...the acoustic mixtape that just hit iTunes today. Sounds so much more impressive (based on the clips) than in the studio versions I perused on iTunes. Excited to hear the whole thing.

Second single has to be Heartbeat, then third Renegade Runaway!

if the singles were all up to me it would be these 5 (not sure of order):
1. Dirty Laundry 2. Choctaw County Affair 3. Like I'll Never Love You Again 4. Mexico 5. Church Bells
If released I do think that Heartbeat will be big for her though.
Regardless of what is released, they need to go 5 deep this era. I see the next couple album cycles being similar to this release. A baby between each official album after touring wraps up and maybe a special release (like the greatest hits) between albums so the waits don't seem so long. I'm definitely making some guesses here but I feel like they're logical.

It definitely looks like Heartbeat will be a single, but I'm not sure of it as Single no.2.
Smoke Break and Heartbeat back-to-back... they both don't really represent the album that well, imo.
