Zac Brown, Kenny Chesney Go Coastal with 2011 Tour Dates

Zac Brown and Kenny Chesney will have plenty of chances to discuss their widely divergent facial hair grooming theories next summer, as the pair team up for nine co-headlining stadium shows across the country.

The bushy-bearded leader of the Zac Brown Band, who will be touring in support of their recently Grammy-nominated album 'You Get What You Give,' and the amazingly immaculately groomed solo star Chesney, who'll be playing songs from his latest, 'Hemingway's Whiskey,' will be bringing some special guests with them.

Billy Currington, who in a recent single proudly declared himself 'Pretty Good at Drinkin' Beer,' will appear at every show, with Kid Rock DJ-turned country singer Uncle Kracker opening all the shows except for the Foxboro date.
