I'm slumbing it back in Row Y of 104 tomorrow! My worst seats yet! I'm taking three mates so I don't think its fair if I upgrade and leave them behind....

....unless a grade A floor seat pops up!

Don't worry about row D, being in D instead of C lets you see the stage lights if you are over 5 foot!

She'll love it! What a wonderful experience for her. I saw some wicked little purple shoes in Mothercare this morning so I'll be getting those on the way home from work tonight for sure!

I have row V Saturday night in block 111 and was more than happy with those. Going to the aftershow too. But couldn't pass up row D for tomorrow, no way.

I'll be sure to let you know how she gets on with it. She loves singing and dancing so she should be in her element. And if Prince sings The One U Wanna C she'd definitely be up for that! As for the 21st, I'm lucky enough to have tickets for the main and after show with my brother so that'll be just the two of us.

As for purple shoes, check out www.thepurplestore.com. It's a US site though so I'll see if I can find you some in the UK.

I dont think you can ignore the not on sale sign. Its never worked for me although see below from other orgers..

What I do is have it on my screen in work in the corner and refresh it every 5 or 10 minutes. As soon as the "Currently Not on Sale" is removed you dive in and take the first thing you can get. At this stage all the seats are top seats so dont be greedy and take what you can get (unless its behind the stage obv in which case try again).

There are bound to be some floor seats released tomorrow if you are patient enough.

In my experience it is the day before and on the day. It is very hit and miss though. You need to be on the TM site all day to be sure you get them as they come on in very small batches. Ive seen them selling up to 6.30pm on the day of the gig itself so persistence and patience usually pays off. Incidentally this seems to be TM's policy on top tickets. I work in centre of town and have been to quite a few last minute gigs (not just prince) with top seats. Passed on £150 for the stones even though good seats came up for those shows last minute too. £150 too much i think especially when P is doing it for £35 a pop.

yep ignore the 'currently not on sale' and also ignore the 'best available' option when selecting, go straight for floor or lower tier and you'll have a better chance. stupid ticketmaster system DOH!

Thinking back to my efforts for tickets for last fridays show i think ive worked out why you can occasionally get tickets still when it says "not currently on sale". Its to do with the fact tickets get allocated for 2 minutes to someone who may then turn those ones down. Hence some will come back into circulation as available after they think they have sold. Obv the front screen is not completely in synch.

I ve just phoned ticketmaster and asked why I cannot seem to get any tickets although I have been sitting here for over an hour trying to get them and other people are getting them.

The guy said 'We haven't sold any tickets for Prince on 21st September, today - no new Prince tickets went on sale today" I told him I was in contact with people buying them and he said "Not through Ticketmaster"

Why are this Mickey Mouse company dealing with the tickets - they are crap!!
so, what is the answer 2 the question of U

I just got 1 ticket for 111 Row F. Was offered E1 on the floor but rejected that.

I'm going to be sitting alone but have 2 friends on the other side of the arena in 102 smile
