31.21 tickets which I knew would be shitty but seriously I don't care they're the best of the worst!!!
201 row x.... yes last row yall and I was on at 12:00 sharp!



Meet and greet time!!!

Anyone else have luck on the TM site today? I got crap so I didn't buy anything. I'm holding out for god knows what...

Yeah, that's not bad. I paid for the 90some tickets and I'm also in the upper balcony. I would like to know how they distributed the ticket prices vs where the seats are. I feel like I got ripped off.

at least i'm front and center and it'll be a great road trip!!!! Yay thousands of miles

Even the seats with "obstructed" or "restricted" view are $ 97.77!!
Single tickets still available.

Where can i find that info?

$31.21 tix were sold out fast! I got $77.70 x 2 tix in the nosebleeds. Sec. 238. At least it faces the stage and speakers.

I just tried for some tickets and the seats that came up said "seats have obstructed and restricted view!!!".
And the price was $97.77.

--anyone know why you can only bid on 2 or 4 tix in the auction?? what if you want a single ticket?--

And now their server is down. Ugh!

Yeah I was first in line today at a Macys location and I got section 237. I was like huh? For 77 ticket price.
Whats the point of even having a sale when most are gone before or at brokers. Nice agreement ticketmaster has with them.

Damn I miss NPG Music club. Any seeing him at the Park.

I will still be positive but wow I am pretty disappointed. I guess I will enjoy seeing Fury live through binoculars

I had to try 4x but I finally got section 138 row S which is further back than I wanted but close enough. Any word about an after party at PP?

I don't understand how they are doing this onsale. I have my tix thru Macy's but was helping a friend try to score seats. And I could NOT believe the jankity ass upper deck OBSTRUCTED VIEW seats were 77 and 97!!! They seriously must have had like only a few rows at 31.21.


But weirdly now I've been pulling up upper deck NON obsructed view, on the side and across from the stage. Lots of these. How are THESE available now when for over 10 minutes all you could were obstructed view.


this has all made me appreciate my Macy's tix MUCH more

ps, how WEIRD that the "exclusive Macy's package" allowed 10 tickets per person but TM is only allowing 4. This is a whacked process!

It's when people release tickets they don't want, then they come up again.
Sometimes it's better to wait a couple of minutes (and test your patience!) but hey... it's a russian roulette.
Buying tickets online has cost me years of my life the last couple of years

did any one get a ticket in the 131.21 price range?

serahstar said:

Nope. I ordered promptly at 12PM and there were none available.

Might be able to get some good tickets.

I got thru right at 12:00 and got section 229 row W (obstructed view) then I was just checking to see if it sold out yet and they had section 101 row M so I bought those and will sell my other 2

I kept hitting search for new tickets for about 1/2 hr and finally got a floor seat. Times like this really really do miss The Club.

skywalker said:

you know that happened to me but then after a few hits a Floor seat was available, about 38 rows back. then then there was a seat side center but it was row X or something.

If you're going alone the chances are a little better. I was getting some upper row A seats.

It's like a game of chance with the refresh button. Just plain awful.

skywalker said:

dunno how far away from downtown you live, but you would've had better luck heading over to target center. it was damn near dead in there, not a lotta people in line come 12 noon. i thought the place would be fucking packed, but nope!

There's still level 1 seating available. They seem to be located around the stage, with an "obstructed view" disclaimer, though. Target Center has steep seating, so those tix may not be too bad. $97.77.

I ordered at noon too, and the only tix available were level 2 at $77-$97. This shit is so fucking shady. I totally forgot that Prince and Ticketmaster don't have all the money yet.

And, yes. Prince was in on this greed-fest auction fiasco.

I wonder if that "1600 tickets available on June 6" on the www.3121perfume.com site has anything to do with no one getting $131.21 tickets?

Go here: http://www.3121perfume.co...es/ad.html and put your mouse over July 7 Concert Tickets at the bottom--a little pop shows up saying, "1,600 tickets to the Minneapolis concert will be available here on June 6."

Man, if that happens and they're for the lower level (e.g. $131.21 seats) purple hippies are gonna be pissed. It seems like Prince still wants to try to give the fans perks, but the time line is a little backwards...

I used to do that all the time in Chicago---I'd go to the Tower Records on Fullerton & Clark to buy tickets instead of online. It was always me and about 15 other Prince-night regulars. Much less stress and lower Ticketbastard fees, too.

wtf?!

endorphin74 said:

i can see why they're probably doing this: the macy's package has a lot more potential for higher profits, since it's more expensive than just getting a ticket from ticketbastard.

DevotedPuppy said:

A lot backwards. Thanks for the heads-up. I clicked on the link instead of doing a roll-over. Duh.

But, damn. I already got(over-priced, shitty) tickets. We'll see what 3121perfoom has to offer. Why is being a Prince fan so damn hard?

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Did ya get good seats?

wonder505 said:

I've done that Russian Roulette refresh thing before and the seats just got worse. This time I stuck with my first pair.

To be honest, I'm real surprised that they didn't sell out yet.

squirrelgrease said:

I can't take credit--I read it on another thread, which I'm searching for again, but haven't found yet.

Found it! http://www.prince.org/msg/12/229513



I know, right? I wasn't planning on going, but now I'm tempted to buy some on 6/6 if they're good seats. But how are fans supposed to know this is even going on? I only know b/c I spend too much time on this damn website! lol.

I doubt the general public knows about 3121perfume website--hell, I don't even check it--like I said, I read it on another thread here. And no email or text "hook-ups" from 3121.com either? Regardless, saving the better seats (if that is in fact what's happening) to go on sale 4 days AFTER tickets go on sale to the general public without letting fans know is bass-ackwards.



Oooh, I just thought of something else. June 6 is the day after the ALMA show airs...maybe it has something to do with that. But again--why not just wait and have a pre-sale on June 6 and have the other tickets go on sale June 7; which would be nice b/c even though he doesn't celebrate, most fans know that is Prince's birthday.



Yes, I over-analyze everything!
