Printable anywho... since other acts are charging between 75 and 250CHF, I'm guessing Prince will charge the same... But, as others have said, best to just wait and see... We ain't from Hollywood, so you know it's all good | |

Thanks, that seems like a reasonable price. Appr. 86 euro if my calculations are correct? (Little Richard enters the stage)

CHF129 (equals 86EUR today) was the lowest price, the highest was CHF259 (172EUR today) according to wundi's Get sexy sex, get funky at... The ORANGE Park - Funky President, people, it's bad! |

Interesting twist... How would that be? I thought that assumption was obvious, even to you.
No, it isn't. Perhaps it's because I am from a different geographical region, or that my french is not top-notch (au contraire!), or... PLAY ON WORDS: MONTREUX: MONTRES LEUR, MONTRE EUX: COULD BE: SHOW THEM BUT IT'S ONLY A CITY IN SWITZERLAND, MAYBE HE LIKES THE WORD???  OR JUST THE PLACE FAMOUS FOR IT'S JAZZ FESTIVAL.
PRINCE IS GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO FOLLOW, DUE TO CRISIS MATTER, TOO BAD, BUT STILL I HAVE A DEEP HOPE WITHIN THIS DESPERATION... We make our own way to heaven everyday

Thanks for the explanation, but what does the `crisis` have to do here? Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Was there different sections, seats, etc? Yes. Floor (standing) cost CHF129 in 2007, CHF259 were for the seats in the balcony. Get sexy sex, get funky at... The ORANGE Park - Funky President, people, it's bad! |

I suppose 86 euros isn't too bad, that is roughly what the 2003 Australian shows cost, they were about A$170 and the exchange is basically 2:1 ...
but still how much will they have gone up since then ? I am getting scared this 515 figure is getting more and more likely.... Hard to believe I've been on the org for over 25 years now! | |

I will go, I just hope that he announces it quickly as hotel booking prices get higher the later we book.
A Google search pointed out that last time in 2007, he announced it July 6, which is a bit late  | |

Very true! MCP said: A Google search pointed out that last time in 2007, he announced it July 6, which is a bit late
That was deliberately announced late then because he was the SPECIAL SURPRISE ACT in 2007... This year it could be a bit earlier indeed... Get sexy sex, get funky at... The ORANGE Park - Funky President, people, it's bad! |

well if he doesn't get his act together I won't be going....
I need to book my holidays 2 months in advance so he end to announce it in the next day or two but we all know THAT ain't happening... Hard to believe I've been on the org for over 25 years now! | |

Yes, we know he is not allways considerate towards his fans. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

No, it isn't. Perhaps it's because I am from a different geographical region, or that my french is not top-notch (au contraire!), or... Lol, you actually quoted XNY's post. Purplecorvette accidently forgot to add a quote-link and that's why it looks like it's her quote. It can be so confusing sometimes with misquoting 
This is how the post actually should look like : purplecorvette1 said: XNY said: udo said: I won't ask you to point out Switzerland on the map. Nor will I ask you to point out Amsterdam on the map. Or Baghdad. Or Cape town. I suppose you know where these are. So I am wondering about your assumptions about Montreux. Care to elaborate? I know where all those are(thanks for not asking)...not as dumb as I look. I just thought "Montreux" was French, or a play on words for "Montreal". I thought that assumption was obvious, even to you. Montreux is the french side of switzerland and nearer to france, so you are not wrong for thinking that. Switzerland also boarders with Germany and italy, so that speak all three languages. | |
