Usher concerts cancelled
Written by . Published: January 24 2012
Two Usher concerts in South Africa have been cancelled due to "unavoidable scheduling and logistical challenges".
The R+B singer was due to perform at both the Cape Town and Durban legs of the Hansa Festival of Legends tour in March (12).
But now the gigs have been scrapped, officials from organisers Big
Concerts announced on Monday (23Jan12).
Usher will however still play at the Johannesburg leg of the
festival.
Big Concerts' CEO John Langford says, "We never went on sale with
the Cape Town and Durban tickets when we announced that Usher was
coming to SA (South Africa). We tried hard to make Cape Town and
Durban work, but due to logistics it didn't work."
