Are my Tix any good?

I have floor seats by the fanclub Sec BK F3 Row A for August 31, but are they any good? Got 2 spare tix as well, so if they're not good enough, Id like to swap the four tix for 2 better seats! So please let me know if u will! Thanks! biggrin

Well I have been in F3 Row D so I can say honestly that they are behind the drummer. Also with you being in Row A and the stage being pretty high up. Also Prince hardly ever comes around the back so you won't see much of him at all during the entire gig. I don't wanna rain on your parade or put you on a downer but, honestly, they ain't great seats. neutral

Hi you will be fairly close to that stage but will be seated behind the circle of the symbol, so behind the band and will see a lot of Prince's back. There are lot's of posts already here from fams talking about the views from different blocks which will give you a good idea of what people like and don't like.

OK, I thought so....read a lot of comments here. Need to swap them right away, may try Customer Services first. Will arrive a day early, so hope to swap the tix before the show. And its a bummer, buying tix by the fanclub has never let me down before, but hate to see all backs and no fronts on this tour! Thanks for the comments smile

I'm not sure the Customer Services will swap your floor tix. I may be entirely wrong but they swap tix for those who have Level 4 seats who have a health issue with fear of heights etc. so they might offer you a Level 4 seats in exchange for your Floor ones. wink

It seemed that until the other night he was facing the front a lot but on Friday he went around the back a lot maybe even more than to the front so you never know, good luck

Hi Jess,

I just wanted to add my thoughts on being seated in block E1 on Friday night. I thought it was basically going to be a disappointment, having read many posts on this subject - and a very limited view. However I was pleasantly surprised - not only was I close but I could see Prince really well throughout, which was fantastic. He also came round the back of the stage quite a few times so you might want to have a think before swapping. I had a brilliant night...

The crowd in the section I was in were really up for it as well and that added to the experience. There's a danger in always chasing the best seats - I speak from experience! - I've sat in the lower tier twice and on the floor twice and both have their benefits.

For great sound and an overall view of the stage pick halfway up on the lower tier, but to be close to Prince and see his obvious enjoyment, pick floor! The sound isn't as good, but then you have an additional chance at most aftershows (where you're close and the sound is LOUD!)

Hope this helps give you the other side of the argument.

Best,
T
