Jimmy Buffett pencils in spring dates

Get ready, Parrottheads, for your leader has begun rolling out the itinerary for his 2006 roadwork.

So far, Buffett has confirmed April stops in Phoenix; Irvine, CA; the San Francisco area; and Dallas. Details are included below; ticket on-sale information hasn't been announced.

Buffett's latest release is last November's "Live in Fenway Park," which captures his performances at the historic Boston ballpark on Sept. 10 and 12, 2004. The collection includes 2 CDs that contain 32 songs, plus a bonus DVD with performances of 15 songs.

Streaming samples of the "Live in Fenway Park" video footage is posted at the singer/songwriter's website.

Buffett's latest studio album is 2004's "License To Chill," which features guest appearances by several country artists, including Kenny Chesney, George Strait and Toby Keith. Included on the set is a cover of Hank Williams' "Hey Good Lookin'" (featuring Clint Black, Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith and George Strait) and follow-up single "Trip Around the Sun" (featuring Martina McBride).

Earlier this month, Buffett--who has a signature channel on Sirius Satellite Radio dubbed "Radio Margarativille"--called into the station for an on-air chat, during which he said that he is working on a new album that he hopes to release in the fall.

Buffett also said that the upcoming tour will include dates in April and May, but that he is not planning to spend much time on the road during the summer.
