In a series of Instagram Stories, The Voice alum shared snapshots of the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan.
The arena promoted the Back To The Honkey Tonk tour poster, which featured the Nobody But You singer.
In the poster, Blake held the microphone close to his lips as he performed with his guitar.
“Detroit! Five pairs of tickets are hidden around the Little Caesars Arena…first one who finds them gets them,” he captioned the post.
Blake’s posts came after his wife, Gwen, 54, opened up about reuniting with her ex, Tony Kanal, 53.
‘WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE’
Gwen and Tony dated for about seven years before splitting up in 1994.
The former No Doubt bandmates will reunite with original members – guitarist Tom Dumont and drummer Adrian Young – for their Coachella show in April.
On Thursday, during a nearly 11-minute interview with KROQ’s Megan Holiday, the Don’t Speak singer dished on her relationship with the alternative rock band.
“I personally think that we shouldn’t even rehearse and that we should just, like, separately rehearse and then show up on stage and see what happens,” the 54-year-old star joked.
“Just make it really ‘edgy.’ No, I think it’s gonna be fun.”
“I think we’re gonna get in the room and actually be face to face and just start laughing,” she admitted.
“Cause there’s just so much water under the bridge. We just had such a life together.”
“I’m ready to slap ’em around. They better behave,” Gwen later teased.
“I’m ready. I’m not ready yet, but I will be ready.”
TIME APART
Gwen’s upcoming No Doubt reunion comes at a time when the husband/wife duo seem apart by their business ventures.
While Blake is out touring, Gwen will also be hitting the road and focusing on her cosmetics line, GXVE Beauty.
Fans have speculated that their time apart signaled a sign of marital woes.
In early February, an insider revealed their jam-packed schedules made it harder for them to find time to spend together.
“They’ve been spending a lot of time away from each other the past several months,” a source told Life & Style.
“It’s been frustrating. Their relationship of late has been a lot of texting and talking on the phone.”
“Gwen and Blake used to be inseparable, but that’s changed.”
“Everyone loves them together, so hopefully this is just a temporary thing,” the source closed.
Although the two will not be performing together anytime soon, the singers released their duet, Purple Irises, this month.
