History
This tour started in the United States during mid-September 2005 in Fresno, and ran by important theaters and places in the United States like Madison Square Garden in New York, the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles, and other cities like Las Vegas, San Diego, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Houston, Boston, Dallas and Miami.
By the end of November 2005, just after the U.S.A., he performed in South America, in places such as the Velez Sarsfield Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina and in the National Stadium and the Quinta Vergara Amphitheater in Chile, gathering over 200,000 people in only seven concerts. Later, he returned to the USA and performed in Miami to close the 2005 tour.
In the start of 2006, Luis Miguel established a record of 30 consecutive concerts completely sold out in the National Auditorium in Mexico City. After that, he toured several cities in Mexico such as Monterrey, Chihuahua, Torreón, Veracruz, Villahermosa, Cancún, Guadalajara, Culiacán, and Mexicali among other cities (this was the first time that the artist had done so). The Mexican portion of the tour ended in Tijuana, with a memorable concert in which a storm hit the city during the concert. Days after that, Luis Miguel resumed performing in US cities. The leg ended in Las Vegas, during April 2006.
In November 2006, he returned from a long pause (during that time, Navidades was produced) to perform 3 concerts in 3 cities of Mexico, before ending the year. In May 2007, he restarted the tour in Spain, a country that he hadn’t visited since 2004, in cities like Barcelona, Bilbao, Elche, Gran Canaria and Madrid. After one month of presentations, he did three more concerts in Venezuela, to close that part of the tour in Caracas.
In September 2007, Luis Miguel gave seven more concerts in United States to close the tour, including three concerts in The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on Mexico's Independence Day, and other cities like Santa Ynez and Salinas.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“A man acquainted with history may, in some respect, be said to have lived from the beginning of the world, and to have been making continual additions to his stock of knowledge in every century.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“It is remarkable how closely the history of the apple tree is connected with that of man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Throughout the history of commercial life nobody has ever quite liked the commission man. His function is too vague, his presence always seems one too many, his profit looks too easy, and even when you admit that he has a necessary function, you feel that this function is, as it were, a personification of something that in an ethical society would not need to exist. If people could deal with one another honestly, they would not need agents.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
