 Well guys I was there on Staurday night in block D2 end of a row, great seat with a fantastic view. He asked for people to come and dance with him and security were having none of it when I tried. Whilst I was trying to get them to allow me up another girl ducked past security and climbed over the red velvet rope into the stage suite area and she almost made it to the stage steps before security stopped her. Basically if you ain't in a stage suite then you ain't got a chance of getting up there. But also i've been given the impression that even if you are in a stage suite, unless you are actually "corporate" guests i.e. music industry insiders etc. then you still don't have that priviledge of being able to get up there. So dissapointed, but a great show none the less! | |

Did you order from Ticketmaster? When were you allocated a seat? . |

One of them went, then Marva came out from the roped off bit and a girl from our row got up, she also asked a guy behind us if he wanted to but he said no (we did have the purple wristbands but I thought it was more to do with people moving forward in hopes of extra encore, that's kind of how it was explained). Also the girl in the purple dress and the guy in leather jacket ran up to the rope from somwhere behind us after Marva got back on stage and security just let them through. |

A bit earlier, I saw one of the girls who would eventually end up on stage talking with security like she was a member of staff. She them proceeded to walk around the stage and I saw her talk to another person who ended up on stage. . |

Hey, I'm sure there's enough people that would pay the cash for the chance to dance on stage like an octopus with 1000 volts being shot through it, or the chance to screech "hey funky London" into the mike [Edited 8/13/07 5:49am] | |

Also the purple dress girl and leather jacket man didn't come back through our section like the others, didn't he go down in the lift with Prince? |

I forgot about that, he appeared to fall down the hole as prince had already started to descend. I dunno if anybody on a upper tier got a better view of what happened. Happy is he who finds out the causes for things.Virgil (70-19 BC). Virgil was such a lying bastard! | |

When the platform lowered, the bloke stumbled and knocked the microphone stand over and was almost ready to fall in completely onto Prince. Prince was physically pushing the guy out of the pit! . |

JonnyUK said: I'm really tempted but there are a few seats in this section that are 'behind the stage' almost around E1 area. I rekon I would end up there if I bought one. Although still really tempted, might check out my money situation for tommorrow, then buy a ticket (and regret it if they put be at the back of the symbol). If I already had VIP, I would be pissed off about this and wouldn't spend more money. Never bought VIP at the time, so it would mean that I have spent as much as I could have. If I travelled down for an aditional night it would be about £180 with travel ticket and hotel - so it ain't alot of difference seeing as I already have a hotel and train booked for this saturday. Gonig to have to think about this hard now
E1 Suites aren't worth the money...we sat E1 row A and guys in front suites and its a very restricted view. You literally have to tiptoe to see on stage...we were a bit back and our seats were great but these guys kept trying to satnd on seats to see and kept being told to sit down | |

He definately went down. Yeah, in the end, It looked like he stepped off the platform on the "trumpet" side underneath the stage. . |

One of them went, then Marva came out from the roped off bit and a girl from our row got up, she also asked a guy behind us if he wanted to but he said no (we did have the purple wristbands but I thought it was more to do with people moving forward in hopes of extra encore, that's kind of how it was explained). Also the girl in the purple dress and the guy in leather jacket ran up to the rope from somwhere behind us after Marva got back on stage and security just let them through. Typical....just as I expected! So basically if you're just a nobody a £250 stage suite seat still won't guarantee you access to the stage it's just down to luck! I tried exactly what that girl in the purple and the guy in the leather jacket did but just on the opposite side of the symbol. I was in D2 and very close to the front, no-one on my side (that I'm aware of) had special purple wristbands to allow them on stage. The reason I say this is that when he called for people to dance with him no-one moved, no-one approached security to try and get up there. The people in the stage suite started getting up but no-one else. I however ran full pelt to the red rope but security stopped me accessing the stage suite area. The security guy said "where do you think you're going? You can't go up". I said "He just asked people to come up and dance with him" the guy said "no he never", I started to walk away doubting what I'd heard just as Prince said it again so I turned back again and said "he just said it again, can I go up please?" and he was like "no that's not for you" By then the complete asshole of a security guy who rgularly patrolled our block had turned up and was like "MOVE!! MOVE NOW!! GET BACK TO YOUR SEAT NOW!" so they totally pissed on my parade. It wasn't like there was 50 of us fighting for a chance to get up there, it was just me and one other girl I think and whilst I was trying to plead my case the other girl I mentioned before who I think was in block D1 had jumped the red rope into the suite. I thought she'd get lucky but she got cut off at the stairs up to the stage, and no-doubt had a similar conversation with security to mine! Just annoying to know that two people on the other side got let through by security when the guys on my side were being complete pricks about it! | |

Yeah, the steward that gave them to us asked to see our tickets when we sat down and he said that it was because lots of people had been running forward and it was just so that we wouldn't have to keep taking our tickets out to prove we were in the front row seats. |
