Chris Brown is going on tour.

The ‘Run It’ singer – who pleaded guilty to assaulting on/off girlfriend Rihanna earlier this year – has announced plans to perform at a series of small venues.

 

He wrote on his Twitter webpage: “BOUT TO START A SMALL TOUR SOON.. 15 TO 20 DATES.. MY FAN APPRECIATION TOUR. just for yall.nothin bigger than 4,000 seaters (sic).”

 

The 20-year-old musician has not released further details of the show dates, or the venues he will appear at.

It was recently announced Chris – who hasnt performed live since the February assault – will make his musical return on October 27.

 

He will headline Power 105.1's Powerhouse '09 concert alongside Keri Hilson, The-Dream, Trey Songz, Mario, Day26 and Ginuwine.

 

Chris punched, kicked and choked Rihanna in his rented car in February after attending a pre-Grammy Awards party.

 

He received his sentence - five years probation and six months community labour - in August, and was left distraught when the judge banned him from contacting or seeing Rihanna for five years.

 

He has admitted being ashamed of what happened during a TV interview, and confessed he would struggle to cope if Rihanna found love with a new man.
