Blue Rodeo’s 25th Anniversary Tour

For Blue Rodeo and its fans, 25 is the lucky number of the day. To mark the 25th anniversary of its debut album, the country rock band announced a 25 city Canadian tour today that begins in January. Tickets start at $25 and go on sale this week.

Since releasing Outskirts in 1987, Blue Rodeo has sold more than 4 million records, been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, won five Juno awards as group of the year, and was given a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame.
