I'm going!!! It took about 3-4 minutes to finally get through, and my limit was 5 minutes after because I knew they were going fast.

There can be contractual issues if he plays within a certain number of miles. Then he does a private show or something.

The last concerts he played were charity shows at the Fillmore in SF in 2013.

Wow, that was the biggest shit show of a ticket sale I have ever seen. No luck and I was on 10 minutes before and ready to go. They must have sold out instantly. I guess its slower to wait on the page and let it load, maybe it's better to go to the page right at the time.

I got tickets to his show at The Fillmore in SF back in 2013. That venue holds like 800 people and this theater is WAY bigger. There's no way it sold out faster than The Fillmore or Fox shows. I don't trust tickemaster anymore. They have been accused of scalping their own tickets and selling to third party sites.

I wish Prince wouldn't deal with them. I find it hard to believe that a show where the limit is 4 tickets and you have to have your credit card/ID for entry, that they would sell out in less than one minute. Like literally one minute or even less cause like I said I was on right on the dot.

I tried for just 2 balcony tickets and then for anything, no luck at all. I have a fast internet speed and I'm super ticket savy. I've gotten tickets to some of the hardest shows ever, including events like Coachella and San Diego Comic Con which are notorious for being in online waiting rooms for hours and being almost impossible to get.

This was the only show I have never gotten tickets for where I was ready to go on the second and my computer/internet was running perfect.

Seems like a roll of the dice, not an actual "first come first serve" ticket system.

Keep trying.

Just got tickets for both shows in the last 10 minutes.

One using the phone app
One calling the phone line

Well, if anyone has an extra tickets for the 10pm show then LMK.

Fingers crossed he does something at a smaller club or adds more shows.

Ranting more about ticketmaster...I bought tickets to Iggy Pop and Josh Homme at the Masonic in SF. I was on when tickets went up with a presale code and somehow they were "sold out" instantly. I kept refreshing and trying different options for 30 minutes. Balcony tickets came up for the price of front row. Then they dropped down to balcony price. And then finally I found floor tickets for the mid price. After that experience and now today I can't trust tickemaster anymore. Their system is BS

Sounds like using the phone app was the best way to go.

Getting tickets to PP was easier than this..... His system for those shows worked better than POS Ticketmaster's
