'Glee' taking a page from 'American Idol' with tour
Twitter
Next summer, the "Glee" kids are getting their acts together and taking them on the road."Glee" creator Ryan Murphy tells the New York Post, ""We're going to do what 'American Idol' has done and put the kids on the road. It all equals revenue streams for FOX."
He continues, "Glee"s music is not only driving the show, making it the freshest program on broadcast television, but it's also driving revenues. This is a new sort of model. It used to be with TV that you would have the show, then foreign sales, then DVD sales and then syndication sales, but DVD sales have really taken a cut out of syndication. This is a whole new way for Fox to earn revenue on a show."

I love Glee. Families will go watch it. I know mine will and my two neighbors and multiple people at work will also.
Hopefully there will be a stop in Toronto.
I'll go just to see Lea Michele live. I kind of hope they send Matthew Morrison along with the younger kids. I saw him play Link in Hairspray years ago and he was phenomenal. I think it's a great way for the audience to connect with the show on another level.
I would absolutely buy a ticket! Glee is my favorite show. It's stellar.
I will so go! This is incredible news. Glee is my new TV obsession this season.
I second the wish for Matthew to go along. I would love to see him perform live.
I just wanna do whatshername
I would definitely go see this show. In a heartbeat.
I am such a Gleeker... I'm going to get a ticket as soon as they come out.
I would absolutely want to go see the glee cast live! mostly because of Lea Michele (Rachel) and her amazing high notes but I'm a huge fan of the show and the music!
