Although, there was uncertainty and even a TV commercial which showed the concert date as a day earlier, finally the organizer can confirm the show will go on as scheduled, August 29, 2008 at 8pm in Stadium Merdeka.

Well, that’s the best damn thing to hear all week. Get your tickets from Axcess Tickets.

Avril Lavigne’s concert in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia was initially scheduled for August 29, 2008 but the concert was bound to be canceled because it was set to take place two days before Malaysia’s independence day.

Now, it’s back and it will be held a day earlier, which is August 28, 2008 at 8pm in the same venue (Stadium Merdeka). The organizer even aired a TV Commercial for Avril Lavigne’s concert on 8TV, stating the date as August 28 instead of August 29 during the prime time hours. However, the online ticket purchasing is still temporarily closed.
