Antwerp - biggest venue of this tour ?

The Sportpaleis in Antwerp can accomodate 17.000 people (or 15.000 depending on how much seats they place in the arena).

Is this the biggest venue of this tour ? omfg

It looks like it.
Thinking about this:

I'm curious how much influence the size of the venue will have on the performance. I mean: I can think of atmosphere, crowd participation/contact, setlist, etc, etc.
Size difference is nothing new (think about the regular concert versus aftershow difference) but this great variation is in the list of 'main' venues, the actual concerts.
I hope I can experience these things myself. smile
Comments?

My point was : will Prince be able to sell out such a big venue in Belgium on such a short notice and without the support of a new album ?

If the price of the tickets is 65 euro (like I read about Ahoy in Rotterdam) I don't know for sure...
There isn't any kind of publicity except maybe the ad in the newspaper (next week) for the non-NPGMC members?
Hmmm. 12.000 tickets?
There can be a certain amount of Dutch fans, of course, but still...
How many NPGMC members does he have in the BeNeLux?

And one couldn't keep the ticket after it was checked: they kept the WHOLE ticket although it had a `rip off here` corner. (And it was such a beautiful ticket...)
