Despite pledging to Jay Leno that he would take some time off to reassess his life in the wake of his Taylor Swift bum-rush at Sunday night's Video Music Awards, Kanye West will be busy for much of the rest of the year thanks to the just-released dates for his Fame Kills co-headlining tour with Lady Gaga.

The tour, announced earlier this summer, will kick off November 10 in Phoenix and will keep the dynamic duo on the road through early 2010. A spokesperson for Gaga declined to confirm the dates listed on Pollstar, and spokespeople for West could not be reached for comment at press time.

West has apologized three times for interrupting Swift's acceptance speech at the VMAs and told Leno that he had been working nonstop since his mother's death two years ago. While West went home empty-handed Sunday night — and, in fact, was asked to leave the venue after the incident — Gaga provided one of the evening's highlights with her over-the-top, blood-drenched performance of "Paparazzi" and a win in the Best New Artist category.

Fame Kills tour dates, according to Pollstar:
