KINGS OF LEON - September 16 2009 - Bell Centre: New series of tickets available now

Due to overwhelming demand, Gillett Entertainment Group is pleased to
announce that a new series of excellent tickets (floor and reserved
seats) has just been released for the much awaited KINGS OF LEON
concert on Wednesday, September 16th at the Bell Centre.



The band is taking off with a number of huge hits, among their latest,
“Use Somebody” can be heard on every rock radio station in Quebec.  



Nominated for three Grammy Awards (Best Rock Album, Best Rock Song,
Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals), Kings Of Leon
have seen their latest release Only By The Night take them to new
levels of success in the United States. Their lead single “Sex On Fire”
has been #1 on the Billboard “Modern Rock” chart for nine weeks and
counting. The second single, “Use Somebody,” is now a tremendous hit
that everyone has had stuck in their head on at least one occasion. The
video has been named “Buzzworthy” by MTV and has had nearly six million
views on YouTube to date.



Only By The Night was released in September 2008 and debuted in the top
five on the Billboard top 200 and #1 at the iTunes store. The band has
since performed on Saturday Night Live and Late Night with David
Letterman and has appeared on the covers of Spin magazine and Q
magazine in the UK, where they also claimed "Record of the Year"
honours.



On January 29th, Kings of Leon presented an epic sold-out performance
at the legendary Madison Square Garden in New York City.  In his review
of the performance, Jon Pareles of the New York Times wrote, “The music
swelled to fill the arena, from the ominous stomp that opened the set,
‘Crawl’ to the lean defiance of ‘Knocked Up’ and, suitable for the
occasion, the triumphal ‘Manhattan,’ which promises to ‘show this town
how to kiss these stars.’”



Don’t miss one of the hottest bands around, KINGS OF LEON on September 16th at the Bell Centre!
