Not quite front row.

Was in C2 row C, 5 rows back. Although in reality you only have 2 rows of peoples heads in front of you as the first two rows are shorter so dont obstruct your view. Could just about see towards the back of the stage (I'm 5ft 5).

The experience was intense, especially when Prince comes towards your end, was literally 15ft away from him and saw him in all his glory....clothes, shoes and facial expressions in minute detail. Still think it was a dream !

(B.t.w.: Sorry to the italian folks behind me and my girl...But I had to dance and clash the tamborine with strung-out arms... )

I've been front row in Block B2 on two nights. I was front row F3 on another night.

The B2 front row tickets were pure quality!

Row B on A2..excellent!!

Have to agree with Pwisdom. Row D in A2 was awesome and we quickly moved to just in front of the bouncer there. Prince in the centre was so close it is unreal hence I think A2/A3 are the best seats in the house by a long way. C2 is too far away from prince in comparison (as there is the full length of the symbol point) and B1/B2 and D1/D2 have the bloody corporates in front of them. A2 and A3 are the best! and if you dont have the very front row just move into the space when it all starts right at the front.

If you are lucky enough to have A2/A3 you are in for a real treat

I'm curious, doesn't A2 mean you're looking at his back for most of the show? Only asking as I've had this block come up on TM and turned it down for D blocks...In D blocks you're in the zone that he appears to face the most of, the quandrant that includes facing lowere tier 111 + 110...

I was unsure about A2 but then last Friday I got front row (Row A) in that section from Tm at the last minute. P was round our end of the stage a lot - and we could see really well when he was in the centre. He's pretty good at looking around so we didn't feel like he had his back to us. And we were very close to the keyboard when he played.

If you get the chance - go A2!

I've been at the front of D1. It was good, but I much prefered being on rows a-f blocks 102 and 111. That was perfect!

Hi I was in block A3 ROW C but there was only one row in front, and no seats in front of me. It was absolutely amazing he came over to our side loads and he even made eye contact. One of the stage guys even gave me a pectrum with a symbol on it and a set list. It must of been theg 30 badge I wearing.

Blacksweat - what was the front row of F3 like? I'm there on 16th Sept following the NPGMC email - must say, I'm slightly concerned that the supposed fan club is sticking its loyal followers behind the O.

You are looking at the side of him when he is in the centre but we were making so much noise he looked our way loads and he seemed to play all his solos right above us.

It wasn't as bad as I expected, but if he goes on the keyboard, then you can't see a thing

Mine was an NPGMC seat too and I can't understand why they would stick true fans there.

We were 2nd row back in Block B1 on opening night, i had an isle seat... which meant i spent the whole time on the front row / pressed up against the stage screaming my head off whenever he came over haha!!

Hubby surprised me with floor tickets and BOY were they quality seats!!!
