Interestingly enough, the jaunt will be dubbed 'Love, Pain & the Whole Crazy Carnival Ride Tour', a combination of both artists' respective albums which they will promote in this tour.
Urban's 'Love, Pain & the whole crazy thing' was released in November last year while Underwood's 'Carnival Ride' has just been released last month. Urban will release 'Greatest Hits: 18 Kids' on November 20 this year.
