‘Idols’ Tour Scaled Back

The itinerary for the American Idols Live tour is a bit lighter. 

Saying production rehearsals have been pushed back two weeks, organizers have deep-sixed the first 10 cities on the tour.

Presented by AEG Live and 19 Entertainment and originally scheduled to open in St. Louis at the Chaifetz Arena June 29, the tour will now begin in Kent, Wash., at the ShoWare Center July 19.  Refunds for the nixed shows are available at points of purchase.
