Background and Band Against Cancer

The tour was first announced in May 2017.[1] The 2018 leg was announced in November 2017.[2]

For this tour Paisley has teamed up with the Sarah Cannon the Cancer Institute of HCA to "Band Against Cancer". At every show concert there will be onsite resources where concert goers can "askSARAH" (the institute's hotline) questions. At the show fans can purchase Paisley's album Love and War for $15, and as part of "get one, give one", when they buy a copy, they can send a copy to a cancer patient for an additional $15.[3]

    gollark: Also, like I said, it doesn't make sense to go separately into a mine for diamonds then iron.
    gollark: You probably also do want to consider how much it would cost to do a thing. Fuel costs or pickaxe damage or whatever.
    gollark: Oh, I see.
    gollark: Makes sense. Though I think "difficulty" should be "chance of success" and/or time taken" and "resources expended".
    gollark: Which is a lot harder to implement than to say, but eh.
