Hi,

I am considering to come over to London for the Saturday show. Can somebody tell me which airport is the nearest to the Apollo?

Thanks.

Heathrow's about 30-40 minutes away from Hammersmith and is the nearest airport

BIG QUESTION...

What (and where) the f@ck is WILL CALL ?

3 nights at £65, Aaaaggghhh!!

What do I do now ?
All three ? £195 !!
Just the first night ?
Just the Saturday night ?
Which show will have an after party ?

AAaaaggghhh !!!

Will Call? no idea...

How much were the presale tix in the states through the club?

where did you get that price from? It aint up on the site yet as far as I can see, or am I blind?

Is Will Call only an American thing?

"Will Call" simply means you collect the tickts from the Venue - they won't be mailed to you!

£65.00 is the top price shown at www.ticketmaster.co.uk

I hope there is an option to buy cheaper tickets through the club and still attend the soundcheck, and have priority at the after party.

But I doubt there will be. It'll be front row or nothing. !! What am I saying :/ ...cool...front row !!!

It'll be funny if Prince does his soundcheck meet and greet in London, 3 days in a row.
I can't wait to see his face when he walks on stage the second and third days and see's the exact same people there again !!

Did this happen in the US ? I don't think he played so many dates at the same venue ?

And it'll be funny again when nearly all those same people are at Manchester too !!

Cool! I'm glad you guys are getting a chance to see the man I'm happy for ya!

for some reason the ONA didn't come to boston ?? but I went to the hit and run...I belive my tix were 60 dollars but I think they were more than that for the ONA tour...probably around 75 dollars...but I'm not sure...is that equivilent to what your paying?
only from what I've read but, I do not think you'll get a discount for buying pre-sale tix...the only benifit there is that you're buying them before the general public and your gaurunteed to get in the first 15 rows.
Will call just means you order ahead of time and you pick up your tics at the door. Be sure to bring the credit card that you used to purchase the tix and your photo ID.
have fun!!

Hi!

Ticketprice in the US was $125 for premium seats.

So how did the entry actually work in the US? If you were 1st in line at the will call window did you get front row, or was it not as well organised as that?

So - total cost of a night's entertainment at the Ardwick Apollo is:

Ticket: £65
Parking protection money £5
Bodywork to remove scratches to car: £80
Mugging money in separate pocket: £10

Well as I can best remember, here in Dallas some of the earlier arriving members organized themselves into a line, and it pretty much worked out that way. Although the line wasn't officially sanctioned by the NPGMC, when someone tried to skip to get better seats, the other concertgoers informed someone with Paisley and they got booted to the back row of the member seats and they brought a parent with a kid up to the front to get the ill-gotten seats. That was kind of a cool way to handle that.

***king typical! The one time the rumoured dates come true (nearly), and I am in Italy!! Where is the justice in that?

But what happened to the Birmingham and Glasgow dates? Are they still to come?

I can't believe he is playing in my back garden and I am out of town!
