This is what I am wondering....they said that there was 100.00 seats in the 300 section. I am online at 5:00 sharp and never even saw a 300 section ticket!! The only 100.00 tickets were in the 204 section so 6 whole 300 sections (301...302...,ect...till 306) were just gone?? who bought all those seats? It just seems unfair. My guess is that radio stations got those. About 5 minutes later, all the 100.00 seats were totally sold out!

And I saw that they can do GA floor in the hard rock on one of the seating charts. It just really sucks that they did not do it. My guess is there will be alot of VIPs and big stars there and they could not have the tables and would not want the stars sitting so far away. Thanks guys!!... ugh I know... I am bitter lol I have not seen him since aug of 04,and was really looking forward to a GA show so I am bitchy.... biggrin

Yes but the 300 section is way up in the back. You're closer for viewing if you have tickets in the 200 section.


No, actually the 300 sections are up on the top in the front but all of them are closer to the stage than the section that I am in (204). its in the wayyy in the back, directly opposite the stage. I would have taken a section 300 ticket way before sec 204. Its mad far....

I am debating to get one of the tickets in 102 or 107 or hold off and see if any of the others are released. I am in NYC so I can't wait until the last minute, but I still have a feeling something better will open.

My thoughts exactly! At least we are able to go. Yes, I hope they fix the presale thing...
I got section 104 row F. I am not complaining, because I will be there to see Prince, and not have to fork over $3000.00 on Superbowl tickets, and I hate football!
Don't forget to wear your purple smile

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I hope it's not like that NAACP performance with a bunch of people in the front acting cute and important, clapping politely and trying to be trendy. People who don't know any of the words to the songs and don't interact with him. The poor guy had to run out into the audience to get the right vibe!

He's gonna have to look for his purple peeps that night.

You could be right but I wouldn't wait too long. They may release them to radio stations and other promotional outlets.

I guess this is one of those times when we have to chill and let the man network and earn his cheddar. This is the NFL's party and they're inviting who they want.

We're used to being right up under him so this is kinda tough. He won't forget his peeps though. It ain't ova.

Oh I am so excited. I am not a member of the NPG but sure wish I was. I've been to musicology and one nite alone and can't wait to see Prince in Florida. My seats arent the greatest but, Section 104, row E, seat 15 and 16. I will for sure have binoculars!!!!! If the venue only seats 5000 the seats can't be that bad. I just feel so blessed to be able to have gotten tickets at all. Does anyone know of a good hotel in the area? The hard rock is charging 250.00 a night....
You get a brother in trouble, girl!

The venue is only about 7 miles from Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood Int'l airport. There should still be some reasonable rooms near there. The further east you go (closer to the beach) the more expensive it is. Try Orbitz, Cheaptickets.com or AAA and compare rates.

ok, I did it. I broke down and bought my ticket! Section 107 row Q seat 20 (the end of the aisle).

Gotta get my plane ticket from NYC tomorrow and already rented a car for $40.00. Just need a place to stay now or will just stay up all night and drive around the city or watch people lose their money in the casino until my flight the next morning.

See you all there.

Anyone else going from NYC?

Hatas! LOL The front will not be dead, trust me. I broke down this morning and spent 4 bills on section 101 row R. I've seen The Man plenty of times and I admit i'm spoiled rotten. I have every intention of making enough noise for them to have to put me OUT of the Hard Rock! lol

I dont know who got all the front row seats and I don't care, if they aren't fans, and they are tryin to be cute, they need to get the hell outta my way. Its a Prince concert. That means get up off yer ass and dance!
party excited
Not the brightest crayon in the box now, are we? dunce

i just got an update from my sis at ticketmaster and she said that the hard rock is holding a stack of tix....all the good front ones..she said that sometimes they will release them a day or 2 b4 the show or sometimes the day of the show. so keep an eye out through the hard rock box office or they release them on ticketmaster. so those of you holding out might get lucky!! good luck!
