With the sizzurp out of his system and it has just been only 10 days since he was hospitalized for a seizure he had, Lil wayne is already scratching and iching to hit the road for a tour this summer.

LilTunechi has announced he's bringing an encore of his America's Most Wanted Music Festival that toured the country back in 2009. This festival tour will include 40 dates in amphitheaters and areas across America with fellow rapper T.I. and Future along for the journey. There are serveral additional acts yet to be named according to source.

Weezy and the crew will hit the road starting July 9 in Birmingham, Alabama. The journey moves on to make stops in Atlanta, Baltimore, Wantagh, New York, Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, Denver, and Las Vegas ending it in Irvine, California on September 1.

This news about the tour was broke just a day before LilTunechi's new album, "I Am Not a Human Being II" which hits stores in less then a couple hours.

Wayne's 2009 America's Most Wanted Tour was a blockbuster affair, grossing $42 million and attracting 804,000 concertgoers during its summer run.

See the full list of tour dates below.

Do you have the "Justin Bieber, please "Believe It"? or A half a million in my duffle bag?

Shot in Las Vegas, watch Meek Mill's new video featuring Rick Ross "Believe It," from his latest "Dreams and Nightmares" album.

Also see Meek Mill set to tour on his upcoming "Dreams Comes True" tour kicking off in April.

What has gotten into Miley Cyrus?? She's Twerking now ! Watch. I don't even know what to say, do you?

This is why I love P!nk and she is my inspirational to me, because she's flat out a rock star and she has her "Cuz I Can" attitude always. She's currently on her The "Truth About Love" Tour, and I think she is a rock star that hasn't experience on a tour yet, I believe? But cares about this because she recently just became apart of the parent world. Ok this what happen !

During P!nk's show on Sunday Night (March 17). P!nk was in her set where she halted in the middle of the song to a tune of a little girl crying near the front of the audience. (Yeah, P!nk attribute it to her own maternal instincts). P!nk was the showstopper and the saver of this little girl by showing to show and seeing if she was ok.

She stopped her guitarist halfway through an acoustic version of "Who Knew" at the Philadelphia Truth About Love Tour stop and call out to the young fan.

"Is everything OK right here?" Pink asked. "Why is she crying? Why is she upset?"

Someone answered back that two women were fighting and it made the young girl cry.

"Y'all are fighting around a little girl?" P!nk asked, reprimanding the two women.

She then picked up a stuffed frog and a Rice Krispies treat, which were among the gifts that fans had thrown on stage for the singer, and handed them down to the crowd to pass to the girl. "Because Rice Krispies Treats fix everything."

P!nk then gave the little girl an air-hug and told the crowd, "Everything okay now -- cut it out, you are all grown ass women.

Watch below.

Have you ever been to a concert at the Charter One Pavilion at Northerly Island in Chicago? Well, you if have you probably enjoyed the outdoor venue because of the lake effect winds and the breathtaking view of the Chicago skyline along Lake Michigan.

This summer, Charter One Pavilion could be expanded to be able to hold 20,000 people with the addition of lawn seating.

The Chicago Park District has proposed to have the 5.9 arces of land by the Charter One Pavilion reconfigured to feature lawn-style seating, more trees, and they would also increase the fixed seating from 8,000 to 8,600, thus increating ticket sales.

D.J's Music Site senior editor D.J. Jr., has been to Chicago's Charter One Pavilion a couple times. He has seen Destiny's Child on their last tour "Destiny's Fulfilled & Lovin' It" tour when the pavilion first open to Black Eyed Peas on their "Monkey Business" Tour to Mary J Blige, Carly Rae Jepsen, Austin Mahone and Boys Like Girls.

The Plan Commission will meet Thursday at City Hall to vote on the $3 million project funded by Live Nation entertainment company.
