Bryan Adams

The rocker extends his Roll With the Punches trek "due to overwhelming fan demand."

The Great White North has provided far more than its fair share of excellent rock.

His scheduled U.S. and European stops follow concerts scattered from Asia and Africa to South America.

Adams also recalled how he learned not to try to match Cocker when it came to drinking.

Nancy Wilson, Joe Perry, Chris Robinson, Bryan Adams and Mick Fleetwood helped induct the British rock legends.

Hitmaking Canadian heartland rocker was the king of arena-sized hooks in the mid-'80s through mid-'90s.

"It's not tough to get him inspired," Adams says of the otherwise reclusive producer. "He loves music so much."

But as he told UCR, he's had plenty of great experiences and loves the process of "working with your heroes."

A deluxe version of the record will include acoustic versions of eight of Adams' new songs.

The 'Roll With the Punches' tour is named after Adams' soon-to-be-announced new album.
