Cast of Glee To Go On Tour?

We’ve said it before, and it looks like someone is listening!

After the first season of Glee wraps up, a Glee music tour may be follow in the spring of 2010!

Talks are in the early stages and nothing has been finalized, but the cast recordings have been blowing up the iTunes charts and fans can’t seem to get enough of the hit FOX television show. The shows first soundtrack will be released on November 3rd and it’s guaranteed to score big.

FOX Broadcasting President Kevin Reilly has hinted at the future tour idea by saying, “Certainly if these kids become stars in their own right, who knows? Live appearances. Albums. There’s lots of things that could happen.”
