Standing in line for the soundcheck

I'll be at the NYC concert on Tuesday. I just told my friend to meet me at 4. Will fellow NPGmembers waiting in line get mad if I'm there first and he comes in around 4:15 and meets me in line. I should be able to save a spot for my guest right? What do y'all think?

Highly unlikely that you will be first in line at 4 p.m. Guy in Atlanta said he got there at 3 p.m. for the soundcheck and there were people there ahead of him.

I didn't think I'd be first in line. I'm just sayin' that if I get there before my friend that other people might start lining up behind me.

1. Man after seeing the show, and reading these reports I have to say Prince is the man. (he really is)

2. When Will We Be Paid is the new Shes A;ways In My Hair. Play it for a girl who aint down and see what happens.
They say money don't buy you luv. But it'll help w/ the search.

Sure, bring along your birth certificate pre-dating abolition & I might let you cut ahead of me in line. Truth be told, I'm paying a homeless person $10 to hold my spot in line starting Monday night. Anyone who wants in, it'll only cost you $5 each.

Wouldn't it be fair to say that Members can not hold a spot on line for another member or multiple members, but each member should me able to hold a spot for their 1 guest.

something to keep in mind, even if you show up just as the show starts, you will still be in the around the 15th row. Not bad at all. I know everyone wants to be up Prince's nose, but seriously, even in the back of the NPGMC section, you got a good seat.

Hey, I'm in line right now and there are abou 100 people in front of me, so I suggest people get here early. I am also listening to that new jam off of the One night alone CD "diggin my potatoes"

Oops. I just posted this on another thread and for some reason I thought it was here but it was not. I thought I was so clever that I just had to share it with the intended threadsters.



I'm new around the .ORG site but I will be in line tomorrow looking around wondering who everyone is.

I have a CD that I made that I'm going to give to Prince with a reworking of his new song Diggin My Potatoes with extra lines included like:
"Girl I can be your Spud Monkey"
"Who's da ho? I Da Ho!"
"Your eyes grow on me"
"Don't mash my heart".
