<h3>King George is hittin&#8217; the road again! We&#8217;ve got your scoop on the schedule for the 2013 George Strait tour!</h3>
<p><em>Updated with tour dates!</em><br />
Well <strong><a title="George Strait" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSStrait/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fgeorge-strait-tickets%2F">George Strait</a></strong> fans, we&#8217;ve known it was coming for a while now, and the day is finally here! On September 4th, Team Strait posted the following on the official GS facebook account:</p>
<blockquote><p>From Team Strait: Hey <a title="George Strait" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSStrait/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fgeorge-strait-tickets%2F">George Strait</a> Fans! It is time to get excited about the 2013 <a title="George Strait" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSStrait/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fgeorge-strait-tickets%2F">George Strait</a> Tour. George will be holding a press conference in late September and will be announcing his tour dates for next year. Rumor has it that other major announcements may be made as well. Stay tuned for further updates.</p></blockquote>
<p>And now there&#8217;s a press conference scheduled for today at 12:35pm Central with a big announcement. We know the tour will be covered, but the big mystery is around what the other announcement will be. George has always had amazing tour partners so perhaps it&#8217;s another powerhouse pairing? Other fans are guessing that it&#8217;s a retirement, but for the sake of the rest of us who live to see George on tour I&#8217;m hoping that&#8217;s not the case! Either way, the minute the press conference starts we will be updating this post as well as live-sharing the news on <a href="http://twitter.com/countrymusicnb">Twitter (@CountryMusicNB)</a> and on <a href="http://facebook.com/mycountrymusic">FaceBook (Facebook.com/MyCountryMusic)</a>. </p>
