Fans are demanding refunds or a replacement concert after an Usher and Chris Brown show in Atlanta started more than two hours late on Thursday.

The opening night of Usher and Mr. Brown’s R&B Tour at Mercedes-Benz Stadium saw the show delayed until 10 p.m. amid rumors of a feud between the singers.

In addition, tour performances on Nov. 16 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, and Dec. 6 in Hard Rock Stadium in Miami have been canceled.

Other attendees said an official apology would suffice.

Representatives for the artists, Live Nation and Ticketmaster have not yet responded to inquiries regarding the complaints or the cause of the delay.

Usher and Chris Brown eventually shared the stage during Sunday night’s return performance at the stadium.
