Julianne To Tour w/ King George!!!

Holy crap.

Julianne Hough has been announced as one of the openers for George Strait’s 2009 tour – George freakin’ Strait!! Wow. What an amazing thing for Julianne – she obviously has to be pumped! Hopefully she’s got the talent to pull in some of the die-hard country fans!

What do you guys think? Is she a good fit for King George’s tour? We’ve never seen her live before aside from the CMA Fest, and that wasn’t long enough to judge. We want to know what you think!

P.S. – props to Nashville Gab for giving us the heads up on this!

UPDATE: Here are the dates that have been announced – MORE dates will be added in early 2009 as well as an additional opening act. The dates with a * indicate the shows where Julianne will NOT be appearing.
