Hard Rock International is bringing its first ‘Ambassadors of Rock Tour’ to the Middle East with P!nk this September 5 at the Dubai Media City Amphitheatre on Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai.
P!NK moved away from her urban and R&B roots on the very successful album M!ssundaztood, a harder-edged album, which featured several tracks written and produced by former ‘4 Non Blondes’ leader Linda Perry. The album repeated the commercial success of her debut, and featured the singles, ‘Get The Party Started’ and ‘Just Like A Pill’, which reached Top 5 in the US. With the 2006 release of ‘I’m Not Dead’ and the hit ‘Stupid Girls’, P!NK climbed higher on the music charts worldwide. Doors open by 6pm and the show starts at 10pm. Tickets are priced at Dh170 for regular standing, Dh290 for pit standing and Dh600 for cage standing.
