The price is £235, but that's for "Vip Reception & Premium Seating".

Still, I hope he doesn't change his mind about the £31.21 charge after the first 7 shows...

Wow! You London Fans are really getting the "Royal" treatment. The VIP package with premium seating too..VIP package on the boat;getting escorted right to the venue. Much better than what the US fans received, that is for sure. Have fun.

My guess is that these tickets weren't supposed to go on sale tomorrow. He'll lose quite a few seats for the first seven shows by announcing 13 more before the sale actually starts.

Maybe these will be smaller gigs at the Indigo2 club within the arena? That would explain the price - I think the smaller club has a 2,350 capacity.

Theres no way that all the tix can be £235 after playing 7 nights for £31.21.
Stay tuned...

£235 x 20,000? Not a chance. Even for one night let alone 13.

Also, 20,000 a night on the Thames sipping cheap champagne and eating slightly off sausages? Nope, this is going to opened up to for £31.21 or it is indeed for Indigo and then we are talking 2000 a night.

He would NEVER sell 30550 tickets at £235.00 each. No chance. What happened to the 21 concerts being "affordable for everybody".

it's just for those seats previously advertised on 3121.com - the boat and stuff...other tickets at £31.21 will go on line soon i'm certain...

don't panic! just good to know when the other dates are going to be...clearly demand this morning was pretty high...

the VIP package according to 3121 website was only for the first 10 rows anyway. So I think he will do normal tickets on those days too. But they ARE expensive.

My 2 cents...

I think those extra dates are legit. possibly in the smaller venue. i think the cheaper tix Prince was referring to are the 31.21 ones, which, if they do include the new cd, is quite cheap for a major artist.
your thoughts peeps?

Looks like ticketmaster keep messing up, and letting out little tit-bits of info. I would say this looks like Prince is staying in London until the end of September. Great news.....if expensive!

Reminder: butter up the wife with some nice gifts....

let's hope you're right NPG2000. Sheesh- it's tough being a Prince fan in South Africa- so much speculation!

He'd piss me off in a major way if the VIP-packages are actually VIP-concerts only.....235 GBP is really too much for a guy who hasn't put out a good record in years and expects people to travel around the world to see him in an expensive city, just because he's lazy as fuck so he doesn'e tour like any other 'normal' artist.....disbelief

In the end, P always manages to piss off his fans one way or the other.....

Go study the bible.....disbelief

Even more dates at the same venue for even more money per ticket.
He must be really out of his mind for calling this a 'tour'.
He is at least getting old and lookign for the easy way.

He stayed In Vegas for a couple of months.....
Even Musicals stay in the same place for months....

It's just clever marketing...if you wanna see it, you will go, even if you are not living nearby. People will make arrangements for it.

Thumbs up for Prince this time
