USHER RETURNS WITH EXCLUSIVE LONDON PERFORMANCE OF NEW ALBUM “HERE I STAND”

One of the Worlds greatest performers, Usher, returns to perform for ONE night only at London's finest club, indigO2 on Thursday 22nd May 2008.

This is the first opportunity to see Usher perform live in the UK since 2004. Accompanied by a full band, Usher will perform for an energy packed 80 minutes showcasing tracks from his eagerly anticipated album 'Here I Stand' including the international smash 'Love In This Club' plus a selection of his classic hits.

Demand for tickets to this one-off concert is expected to far exceed the venue capacity, so for the first time ever, Usher will allow fans to enter a ballot to purchase 1 or 2 tickets from Monday 12th May at 9am until Midday on Friday 16th May. Only a lucky 1500 fans will be selected at random to purchase tickets. The unlucky applicants will be given the opportunity of an exclusive pre sale for the major tour when it hits these shores later in the year.

Fans should visit usher.aeglive.co.uk to register.

Tickets are £50 + booking fee. To enter the ballot register once only online; duplicate registrations will be deleted.

Usher transcends the world of r'n'b, a one-man phenomenon who reinvented what it is to be a male solo star and continues to innovate. He has had three number one singles and nine top ten hits in the UK alone. Selling close to 26 million albums worldwide, combining his single, album and DVD sales, he's sold in excess of 36 million units globally. He is also a major touring artist, packing out arenas worldwide for stunning live shows. He recently also found the time to launch 'Usher' his new fragrance.

Despite the efforts of numerous pretenders to the crown, 'Here I Stand' is one of the most anticipated albums of 2008 and will mark the return of the King of R&B when its released on 26 May.
