Avril Announces North American Tour

At a media event in West Hollywood yesterday, Canadian pop princess Avril Lavigne announced that she's all set to venture out on a concert tour of North America.

The scheduled two-month attack on the Arenas of the U.S. and Canada, dubbed the "Best Damn Tour," will begin March 8 in Victoria, British Columbia and, unless it is extended, will wrap up May 4 in Spokane, Washington. So keep an eye out for announcements about shows near you.

Avril's latest album, The Best Damn Thing, has already sold over 1 million copies in the U.S. alone since its release last April.
