Fans Seek Refunds After Usher-Brown Atlanta Show

Fans who attended Usher and Chris Brown’s Nov. 5 concert at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium are seeking refunds or a replacement show after the headliners took the stage roughly two hours later than the advertised start. Attendees also complained of shortened sets, audio problems and no joint performance, despite the tour’s co-headlining billing. A Change.org petition directed at Live Nation and Ticketmaster had gathered thousands of signatures, asking for refunds including fees or a make-up concert, along with an explanation and apology. Reports attributed the delay to a backstage disagreement over whether to wait for fans delayed by traffic, but neither artist confirmed the account; Brown dismissed online claims as “cap.” The artists later performed together at subsequent Atlanta shows, while the tour continued.
