Powersoul99 I think the poster meant it was just a ruse to attempt to get tix over the phone

I knew what he was getting at, but was just making light of it, nevermind.

I think we can assume they won't go onsale tonight? Its nearly 7pm. So, a bunch of people will assume its at the door and start queueing only to miss a 9 or 10 online sale. This cloak and dagger shit is getting on my nerves. I've flown down from Glasgow to see this show!

Just called sales to book over the phone (as I have no net access )and was told they have zero information about the gig. They know a link has been posted on KoKo website but they don't know how many will be on sale, when, online only or some on door, what time if any .. basically zero.

If you have no net access, how did you write this?

Exactly! and how did u manage to speak to someone at KOKO when they don`t answer the phone on W-E, box office is only open on weekdays! I know very well this venue, I`m a local!

Jeez keep your pants on, never said I called KoKo as you rightly pointed out they are closed. I called ticketweb. I am not explaining my comment re net access again... see above post.

Malloy - yep if we make it will sort out a big high to all orgers

Wasn't it 9am on the day of the gig last time?

they were meant to go on sale at 10am they finally went on about 10:10

i remember this because i went to a meeting late because i was constantly hitting F5 until I got my ticket!

Koko site is down for me - maybe everyone looking at the same time. Still nothing on ticketweb though.

This is going to be a long night.

yep that's cos the "unofficial" twitter prince feed announced it and now everyone has crashed it. And he wonders why I wouldnt let him straight in the q cos he cant get to koko until 5.30pm!

I remember being surprised how easy it was.

so you have a website that says click for tickets, and nothing happens, and no one knows when they will go on sale, or if they will go on sale! This could only happen to us Prince fans!!

No drama and big hugs.. we are all in it together ... my head hurts already...

Koko has a capacity of 1,400 according to their website. I'm guessing Prince is going to fill this with ease given the 48 hours notice.

I was hoping for a second show, but am wondering if Koko has a curfew that would preclude this?

it was surprisingly easy yes. A friend got hold of a ticket about 20 minutes after I did and I was shocked they were still available then.

my only worry was i had a meeting with supplier at 10am and left him in the foyer until I had bought the ticket!

Ooops.

OK so I've been sitting here for about an hour hitting refresh on the tickets page, willing the 16 Feb line to appear. This is mental, right? It's going to be on the door sales and the Buy Tickets button on the Koko website is just there cos the site has a standard format for all event pages. That's what I'm guessing. But I can't see myself closing the tickets tab anytime soon.

Sitting here thinking exactly the same and doing exactly the same.

Have tix just gone on sale ?

Been refreshing the "buy Prince tickets" page - went away from laptop for 10mins and now can't get any Koko pages ! Has it crashed due to P fans scrambling for tickets ?

no such luck

KoKo website totally down
