Dolly Parton 's 2005concert tour to promote the release of her covers album, "Those Were the Days".History
It surprised many fans when, towards the end of 2005, Parton announced that she had put together a brand new stage show in support of her new album "Those Were the Days", which would be released mid-tour. She had previously stated in late 2004 that she'd let her band go and instead of touring, she was focusing on writing the score to the "9 to 5" musical. But now she said:
"Well, I'm at it again. I'm very excited about the new Vintage Tour. I will be featuring vintage songs of my own (the songs I'm most known for) in addition to many of your old favorites from the past that I have recorded for a new album that is due out in the early fall. It's going to be lots of fun and bring back lots of memories, so come on out and be a part of it."
