Few tours live up to their billing as “show of the year,” so Usher’s concert raises considerable expectations. As the number one artist of the year, Mr. Raymond will be expected to deliver all of the flash, special effects, and dance routines typical of big-time stadium shows.

Opening up is Christina Milian, the songwriter and chanteuse currently riding the success of her “Dip It Low” single.
