GEORGE STRAIT IS HEADED TO PARADISE FOLLOWING HIS ‘COWBOY RIDES AWAY TOUR.’ (AUDIO)

George Strait still has a few months to go on the final leg of his Cowboy Rides Away Tour, and while he’s enjoying every single minute of traveling the country playing for fans, he does see a tropical vacation in his future when it’s all said and done.

“I’m going somewhere. I don’t know where, but I’m going somewhere to celebrate,” says Strait. “I haven’t been to Hawaii in years, so I would love to see it again and try to find my old house over there and all that stuff. And I want to go back to scope the [Army] barracks, I think, too, and see all the old spots [where] I used to hang out. So, I’m gonna do a lot of things.”

George, who’s on the country charts with “I Got a Car,” will take his show, along with Vince Gill, to Louisville on Friday (March 7th) and Chicago on Saturday (March 8th). The trek is scheduled to wrap June 7th at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas with special guests Jason Aldean, Asleep At The Wheel, Kenny Chesney, Eric Church, Vince Gill, Faith Hill, Alan Jackson, Miranda Lambert, Martina McBride and Lee Ann Womack.
