Soon enough, soulman Jamie Lidell's not gonna have a spare second to sit down and pose for these kinds of wacky promotional photos. The always colorful crooner's got tour dates out the wahoo, stretching nearly into next year.

Things just got a whole lot crazier with the addition of a new North American tour and way more dates on his run with fellow snazzy dresser Elton John. Lidell will bring it back to our shores in early fall, and the new dates with Elton come just before their previously announced jaunt. One addendum: Jamie's been forced to push back his October 16 gig in London to December 14, presumably to accommodate his new traveling schedule.

See? Hardly even a spare moment to watch one's own head on the telly.
