21st September main show

Long shot I guess... but as I'm fairly new to all this thought it wouldn't hurt to ask! biggrin
I'm after 2 tickets for the main show on Sept 21st...if anyone can help me out -I'd be eternally grateful.
Have they all sold out on Ticketmaster now?

(I really didn't think that my visit to the show would have such a profound effect on me!
It was my first ever Prince concert, and I'm almost (sadly?) reduced to tears every time I even think about it!!!!!)

Tickets for the last show seem to pop up on ticketmaster now and again. At this point they are usually good seats. I got mine in block 103 last thursday and there were block 102 on the wednesday.

Basically i would just keep your eye on ticketmaster as a daily chore till you get some.
the guitar is the best instrument in the world!

Sounds like you've caught the concern going bug!!! I had the same thing happen to me last year when I went to See Madonna for the first time. It was such an awesome show, I was just blown away...to the point where I was on some sort of weird come-down the whole week afterwards; I just had to get tickets to go and see her again. Needless to say I wasn't able to get any, unless I was willing to pay a huge amount of cash for them.

Hang in there for tickets to the last show though. I went on the 4th August and was so blown away again I had to get tickets to the last show. I managed to get some with the help of a very fellow Orger (many thanks!)...I think you might have more luck nearer the date, what with people pulling out or not being able to make the show for whatever reason.

Can anyone confirm - is the last show sold out?????
Help... I could get v depressed!!

I rang TM last week and they said that the last show had indeed sold out. Keep checking on here though as there are always spare tickets floating around, and if it comes to it I'm sure you'll be able to get a ticket from the box office on the day from the returns they have...all depends on whether you're brave enough to come down to London without having a ticket before hand.

Sods law really, as I brought a pair of tickets and was struggling to find someone to go with. Turns out I'm now going with the sister of my fiancee's boss from work (if that makes sense) as she's a big Prince fan!

Probably not. I'd check between 11am-3pm every day as they keep releasing tickets. This happened on Weds and Thurs last week. But you have to be quick. If you don't want to take the risk you can pick up Upper Tier for £110 a pair (£55 each) on a Buy It Now at the moment - but again be quick! And they aren't going to get any cheaper on there.

I feel the same way, was completely blown away by the show. Originally, I thought one show would be enough but have since bought tickets for 5 more (plus aftershows) and counting! I feel completely out of control! Was really lucky that this Irish guy, right at the front of the queue to the aftershow on the 7th, told me I could still get a ticket for the aftershow that night, I couldn't believe it. The coolest thing that's ever happened to me! If you read this, Irish guy, thanks again!

If someone could post whenever these slots appear on TM where they sell tickets for the 21st, that would be really helpful. Thanks!

Aftershow sold out as well apparently...but if its any consolation the guy I spoke to didn't really sound like he knew what the deal was so I'd take it with a pinch of salt. You've got a few weeks until the show yet so I reckon those that want tickets should be able to get hold of some.

I have tickets for the aftershow but still trying TM everyday for concert tickets.

I think the final night should only be open to Org and HQ members, what a fantastic night that would be.
oh mama I wish I could resist ...
