What is wrong with the world today.....

The whole story

We went from amsterdam to london on tuesdays and had a great day in the city.Wednesday we picked up the tickets for the golden seats and went back to the hotel to change and go to the savoypier for the Clippercruise.Was nice to enter the clipper and have a drink with a buffet.But all of the sudden we had to hurrie finishing diner because we had to get off - an hour early-because the had to go somewhere else.We got dropped instead of the promiss to bring us to our golden seats.Well...alll that glitter ain't gold...
We had to look for the right seats that went into a disaster.Because we had to go all the way around the o2 we where late.Prince sang 2 songs already and some people were drunk.We run to find our D1 seats and than i got slammed in the troat by a drunken lady.-She is in prison-!- now because she attacked 3 security guards too-because we had to tell the police the story we missed half the show.
Finally at the seats we coulden't see because the seats are to low and you can't see anything only if the band or P comes on the edge of the symbolstage.
Afcourse i had to get back to the hotel because i coulden't speak/breathe.So even a friend we met there bought us aftershowtixs we couldn't go.
So we sold them again.Than Friday..i was so nervous i really wanted to see the aftershow because i noticed the 1st show -what i've seen of it- wasn't that great.The 2nd was way better from the top of the O2.For the first time i saw the nice symbolstage.We went down before P ended the show to go in line for the aftershow.We had great fun there with english die hard fans.We told stories about the former shows and visitis to paisley park.Yes...we all are true devoted fans!After a long time we could get in the Indigo.We waited for 6 hours and than went back to the hotel because P didn't show.What is wrong with the world today.....

Why do drunks get mentioned every time?
I don't remember drunks from my (Prince) concert visits in the past 17 years.
So why do they all of a sudden gather at the O2?
Because the tickets are too cheap?
Because they are sick of the show with too many old songs? (so many hits, so many songs not to play)
Because England has changed?
Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.
