Is this site legit though? I would imagine tickets would be sold through ticketmaster first... And there is no info of the Prince show on the ziggo dome website either. Did you actually receive the tickets yet?

Oooh shit I think it is legit but I must have payed way too much for gettng them early!

Dutch site says this about Onlineticketshop.nl (hope you understand Dutch?)

i would have thought he'll be filming for Later on Tueday 20th.

if there are any SSE customers you should be able to buy tickets for Glasgow Hydro now, if registered with "SSErewards". I'm not (and I can't go anyway) but.....

No it aint ligit. They resell the tickets , wich is not allowed in the Netherlands. Tix are not on sale yet.

The concort promoter will (and has done so before) someties find out wich tickets are sold twice, these nuimbers will be deleted from the system and you stand empty handed at the venue.

check livenation.nl or the venues site: ziggodome.nl

Phoned ticketfactory.com and they are telling me they won't know the stage layout until tomorrow when all the tickets go on sale? Do we trust that answer? Can we find out elsewhere?

There is no pre-sale for these shows so how is there some on a well known British secondary ticket website for Glasgow already?!?

I think the meaning of the word tout should be changed officially to read "Robbing Cu**s".

Although that may be confused and people may be referring to Ticketmaster, SeeTickets, Viagogo and so on.

You have any idea of the chances that this happens?

Holy shit!!! Prince is playing in my new hometown!!!

Is there any info out yet when the tickets for Amsterdam and Antwerp are going on sale? I can't seem to find any info yet.

Antwerp will be on sale on the 7th of may, no info on Amsterdam though.

I am under the impression it depends on the amount of tickets sold. If it is not sold out, Livenation don't care that much. If it is sold out, they don't like other companies making profit.....

I heard 3 dates at Wembley, but then on Twitter they keep saying THEO

.

Which could be taken as a reference to THEO2

Just a hunch!

Unfortunately, there aren't enough of those "true" prince fans in the UK to sell out 4 arenas. Bringing the NPG would make way more sense, it's just simple business.

The Hop Farm show. That's the kind of thing he needs to do.

But these shows will probably sell out because of the back catalogue to "that audience". Wonder how that audience will react once the show is on the way....

That's exactly what I mean. Prince's name could probably sell out these shows alone (although the Prices are quite steep, compared to the £31.21 in '07) - but how will that audience feel after paying £70+ for a set full of songs they don't know? Its a big ask, I feel.

Would it be possible for one of Princes people to clear this O2 rumour up so i can have piece of mind when purchasing tickets tomorrow, because my prefered venue would be the O2.

And also can we get a stage plan for the gigs so fans know what seat to get tomorrow. It's not a lot to ask for, it just boils down to good manners and professionalism. Or maybe we can all stand around in the pissing down rain for a few hours

3rdeye, so end stage i guess.

Can we make a list of verified sites to get tickets from, and add them to the original post?

I can get a seating plan for the Tweenies, John Bishop and every other live evet going but Prince?.... oh no whats he doing one day before 4 gigs go on sale?

.

He's teasing his fans with this O2 jiggery pokery knowing we all prefer that venue. Is it really conducive to ticket sales to be so childish. People are going to hold out then Prince will pout and then pull the gigs.

Why is the stage set up a concern? Either you get tickets near the stage it you don't...you'll know the stage set up when tickets go on sale. Am I missing something...how does it help to know in advance?

Because if you dont know where the stage will be it makes it a bit tricky to get tickets at the front

There is a big difference between paying £135 and ending up behind the drummer if he was in the round with the symbol stage and paying the same amount and sitting/standing right infront of the point of the symbol where the microphone stand is. Compare if you end up where you can't see him the majority of the time but you are front row vs. paying much less and seeing him throughout the entire show.

If it's a normal end stage, what is the best seat for a good view? From pictures I've seen it look s like being front row standing isn't the best given the height of the stage.

www.ticketsoup.com will probably be best for Glasgow Hydro - tend to be a bit cheaper fee-wise than ticketmaster, etc....

So the question is do I buy Birmingham Tickets tomorrow or wait until a possible o2 Gig ?

.

I would prefer the 02 set up as it has everything there and far better than the NEC
