Pop singer Avril Lavigne, who releases the follow-up to her multi-platinum debut album in the United States next Tuesday, will play a free concert the night before in New York, according to sponsor AOL Broadband.
The event, at Webster Hall, will be broadcast live for AOL for Broadband members, beginning 9 p.m. ET, the company’s statement said. Members can also access the full video of the show immediately afterwards for the next 10 days.
Tickets will be given away by New York top-40 radio station Z-100 (WHTZ, 100.3 FM), and by several other Infinity Broadcasting outlets around the country. Fans can also pick up tickets at select New York retailers, such as Tower Records, and via Lavigne’s fan club. Failing that, tickets can be bought at http://wwww.stubhub.com, with proceeds benefiting an AIDS charity for African children.
Lavigne’s new RCA Records album, “Under My Skin,” comes out two years after she made a big splash with “Let Go,” which has sold about 14 million copies worldwide, according to her label.
