Lil' Wayne maps North American dates

Lil Wayne is gearing up for a tour to support his album 'Tha Carter III', which sold one million copies in its first week of release in June.

The jaunt will kick off December 6 with a show in Rochester, NY which is a rescheduled date, following a cancellation midway through a show in the city on October 26.

According to Live Daily, the audience was told the show was being pulled halfway through because Wayne was unhappy with the sound system.

The report also says that the rapper "was apparently unable or unwilling" to comply with a security checkpoint at TD Banknorth Garden in Boston the next night, cancelling that show, too.

No Boston show has been rescheduled so far.

The dates are:

Rochester, NY Blue Cross Arena (December 6)
Miami, FL American Airlines Arena (14)
Houston, TX Toyota Center (18)
Dallas, TX American Airlines Center (19)
Universal City, CA Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal CityWalk (21)
Oakland, CA ORACLE Arena (23)
Detroit, MI Joe Louis Arena (26)
Chicago, IL United Center/WGCI Big Jam (27)
