I have tix for two nights. The thought of him canceling makes me want to faint.

I live in Jersey now and I can understand the sentiment of travelling there from NY since most NY's dont have cars. I guess it seems like a hastle. When I was in Miami, it was nothing for me to drive to Fort Lauderdale but I guess the whole NY-NJ thing is different.

An additional note, NYC 12/29 is going to be crazy. You already have tourists from around the world who fly in for the New Years Eve Times Square frenzy, plus the Christmas holidays around that time, that area will jammed pack with all kinds a ish!

Yeah, that's why I didn't even try for Dec. 29 tix.

It just annoys me that people keep putting us down.... where in NJ are you?

I im Hackensack real close to the IZOD Center but I'm a Brooklyn gurl for life.

Jersey is cool with this NYer. I'm going to take a trip on NJ Transit to NJ to see the man. Then I'll be on the subway to see the man at MSG. Its easy to get around the NY/NJ area so I don't see why folks won't do the right thing and get themselves a ticket to the IZOD Center.

I agree. I commute every single day to and from NY and NJ.

Me too I want to be able to tell my children my first concert was a Prince concert, I never thought i would get a chance to see him in 2010.

But I always thought it was better for a lot of people to be there because of the energy the performer gets from them.

My first concert was the Commodores in 1984.

It was soooo much fun! I was just reminiscing with one of the women about it on FB recently.

I was 16... we were on a marching band trip to Six Flags Great Adventure. We found out there was going to be a concert, so a bunch of us camped out in front of the gates. We were right in front of the stage, and VERY silly.

JD Nicholas had just replaced Lionel Richie, so we were

They put on a great show!

oh duh i didn't even think of that. oh bloody hell. all the xmas tourists..and new yrs ppl. as if nyc aint busy enough

Ok, I just got great tix for the 14th (section 120, row 7, seats 1 and 2) but I can't get anything that good for the 15th. Weird. Maybe we'll chance it and just come into town with tix for the first show and trust we can get the second show while there.

Or, I was thinking since I couldn't get the great seats I want, I should just get cheap tix to get in the building and go from there.

What would you do?

Yes, but it's an amazing time in NYC around that time. It won't be difficult to get around if your hotel is right in the area or close to it. If people are coming in by local trains (A,C,E,), it takes them right in Penn Station, so there really should be no problem getting in and out.

I know it's going to be crazy, but I am soooo glad I got the tickets for the 29th. They are the perfect Christmas persent for my son...all he wanted was to see Prince, Star Wars Legos and a few Wii games.

Fortunately since I'll be taking the train in, the worst part for me will be in Penn Station unless we go to BBQ's to eat or to Garrett's for some popcorn.

if he'd release a single already these seats would probably already been gone... no idea why he hasn't yet.

I just didn't want to deal with holiday traffic/public transportation.

It would have been fun to go together, tho.

Too bad I gotta eat my extra floor seats in section 9 on this date--if any one is interested, let me know!

I printed out the seating charts from both venues and had them in front of me before I clicked on "continue".

I do this every time I buy tickets. I would never purchase tickets sight unseen. Sometimes the chart doesn't accurately tell where I'm going to be, but at least I have an idea.

I really like the venues that offer a "view from the seat".

During Musicology, we had to trust that the seats would be decent.

For the sound check of "One Nite Alone", we got to choose our seats when we got there (at least in Lincoln Center we did) and were told once we picked, we couldn't move.

That was nice.
