Rod Stewart has announced that he will perform at GM Place in Vancouver while on his 2009 tour.

With the release of STILL THE SAME…GREAT ROCK CLASSICS OF OUR TIME, Rod Stewart returns to his roots. A landmark recording of great songs by his contemporaries, and Stewart's first rock album in over eight years, STILL THE SAME…follows the unprecedented success of his Grammy-award winning Great American Songbook series. The four volumes of The Great American Songbook released between 2002 and 2005, comprise the biggest selling ongoing series of new music recordings in history, with a total of fifteen million copies worldwide.

Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Rod Stewart has one of the greatest and most distinctive voices in rock history. Throughout his almost forty-year career, he has applied that unmistakable tone to material by everyone from the Rolling Stones to Tom Waits. Just as the often-imitated “Songbook” albums focused on unforgettable compositions from the ‘30s and ‘40s, STILL THE SAME… concentrates on music from an unprecedented era – the late ‘60s and early ‘70s, when rock songwriting was truly breaking through to new heights.
