Rascal Flatts set sights on spring and summer tour dates

With the first leg of their 2005 tour now behind them, Rascal Flatts take a breather before launching a new round of shows this spring.

The group is scheduled to return to the road in mid-April, and tour dates--the bulk of which are set in June and July--stretch into mid-September. The itinerary is shown below.

Rascal Flatts are supporting their third album, last September's "Feels Like Today," which debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 album chart and has since sold more than 2 million copies, according to a press release. The album includes the cut "Here's To You," which the group shot a music video for during its recent tour stop in Memphis, TN.

Since hitting the road last fall, Rascal Flatts have played in 36 cities for about 250,000 fans, and have grossed about $8.5 million, according to the group's publicist.

Rascal Flatts' label, Lyric Street Records, recently honored the group with a party for total album sales of more than 6 million copies.
