Toby Keith also has a big tour planned. Although he is taking his tour back to the military personnel overseas. "I've been all over the world and there's no place that can touch the U.S., so we have to defend this soil vigilantly," Toby said, “And we have people willing to volunteer to go put themselves in harm's way for what their government has asked them to do -- the key word being 'asked' here. And so I feel like it's my duty every year to take about 14 or 17 days and go over there."
