The E.N.D. is in sight because the Black Eyed Peas will return to Xcel Energy Center on March 22 to promote their smash album, "The E.N.D." Starting Feb. 4, the best-selling band will undertake a 100-date world tour, its first trek since 2006. The Peas' fifth and current album debuted at No. 1 last summer and led to a rare feat when the group's "I Gotta Feeling" replaced its "Boom Boom Pow" at the top of Billboard's Hot 100. The Peas are only the fourth group ever to replace itself at No. 1. The E.N.D. World Tour will also visit Milwaukee (March 11), Chicago (March 13) and Des Moines (March 25). Ticket details will be announced later.
