T.I. Sets Concert Dates Throughout The Country

Until T.I. turns himself in for a prison sentence set for next year, he plans to run a hectic schedule filled with speaking to kids about staying out of trouble and criss-crossing the country for concerts.

Along with a concert in his hometown of Atlanta which includes rival Shawty Lo, T.I. is set to bless the stage in New York City, Chicago and Missouri next month.

Tip will be hitting the United Palace Theatre in Washington Heights on June 12th, the Congress Theater in Chi-Town on June 19th and on the 21st he'll be headlining the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in St. Louis with Keyshia Cole and Bun B, among others.

As previously reported, T.I.. agreed to a plea deal in March, where instead of going to trial on federal gun charges, he was ordered to 1,500 hours of community service, a fine, a year in prison, up to 3 years probation and a year on house arrest.

When caught up with Tip's lawyer, he explained that the rapper is allowed a lot of leeway under his home detention program, which works more like a curfew than traditional house arrest.

"Between the hours that the curfew doesn't apply, he is free to go and do anything, basically," Steve Sadow told. "But he has a full time monitor with him and he has to get permission to go out of town and permission is given for work or community service."
