R. Kelly, the R&B seducer with the bad reputation, will return April 16 at Epic in the Warehouse District. Ticket details will be announced soon.

The Court Yard Hounds, the duo featuring sisters Martie Maguire and Emily Robson of the Dixie Chicks, have decided to stay in their kennel and not undertake a tour that would have brought them to the Pantages Theater on March 27. The tour had been announced on the duo's website but tickets had never gone on sale except at the website.

Jam Productions, which was promoting the Minneapolis concert, hopes to reschedule the event. A spokesperson said that the Hounds plan a big announcement soon. They've already announced that they will appear on some dates of this summer's Lilith Fair to promote their debut disc, due on May 4.
