If an aftershow happens it will be starting between 2-3 am. Does not that allow the venue to change equipment in time (regular show in either venue will end at 23:00, 2 hours to remove that equipment and 2 hours to build up the equipment for Prince)?
Any other venues near Arnhem available? Or what about Nighttown R'dam (currently named WATT)? | |

I already mailed all of those venues you mentioned - only got an answer from Paradiso (don't know anything). It's still too early - he first has to return from his trip to Abu. Then, when he finds out that Arnhem is not sold out, there's the chance he will do just a standard show and no pre- or aftershow. And he IS keeping score - his first remark at Antwerp was, while playing Controversy: sold out in five days, flat. And that could be a reason he was so happy that night and played for nearly 3 hours. But be advised: I live in Amsterdam and I will be calling the venues on Tuesday-night: Paradiso, Melkweg, Tivoli + Trojan Horse to start with. Will keep everybody up2date here. The Nighttown / WATT is no longer an option (thank God) because the place is closed / bankrupt since June 2010. [Edited 11/12/10 22:43pm] | |

On the ticket site it is no longe possible to see the map of the venue with sold/non-sold tickets. anybody has some insighton this matter. BTW, let's not forget Gelredome is about twice the size of the Sportpaleis. [Edited 11/13/10 5:30am] | |

From that I can conclude: South Tribune: 60% sell out West Tribune: 95% sell out East Tribune: 85% sell out Field: Sold out! Have a look at 'The W2A: Euro Tour Song Survey' http://prince.org/msg/12/362417 | |

Interestinmg statistics. What about the the drummer? Will John B perform or will he be replaced? Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Map is back on livenation.nl i see. These figures seem accurate to me. The second ring on the south side won't sell app. | |

Well, Antwerp was sold out because of all the Dutchies that were there
I still hope for Paradiso, because I really like the atmosphere of that venue, it's a church after all...
However, at Paradiso the "Forced landing" is programmed, and that will last till 4, so little change of P overthere. And someone told me that negotiations with P and P didn't go very smooth this year. Issues about money, somebody wanted a lump sum.....
In the Melkweg it might happen, after the concert of "Die antwoord" (he's from South Africa and really good btw). The Melkweg is a good second best.....
And, you'r right, he might not want to jam afterwards. However, I sure do hope he wants to. With Candy or Hans Dulfer? And sing with Alain Clark? I know Alain is a big Prince fan, or play with Anne Soldaat....Enough Dutchies to jam with if he wants to....

Although it's very sad news, I think John Blackwell will be in the band thursday. ( or else it will be Cora ) Have a look at 'The W2A: Euro Tour Song Survey' http://prince.org/msg/12/362417 | |

hmm, if it's Cora we're probably going to get a show more like the shows in summer which is NOT a good thing | |

Why is a small chance at hearing slightly newer stuff as well a bad thing? The average age of the songs in the main set of the main show is 23+ years... Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

yawn, go pick a fight with someone else, I'm totally fed up with you | |

Looks like something happened on the south side. suddenly in all blocks all the seats up tot the same row are no longer for sale. Will they be hanging up a curtain or something? | |

Why interpret stuff as a fight? Perhaps you did not noice the difference between summer leg setlist and the setlist of the recent shows. Please have a look. I just asked a question. I do not think taht is areason for your hostility. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Here people are whining about the small details of set list, when Finns would be extremely happy just to see his concert instad of these ridicilous cancellations. Any set list would do for us. | |

Besides for what I understand; Sportpaleis: approx 15.000 tickets (?) GelreDome: approx 30.000 tickets (?)
And was Sportpaleis really sold-out officially? I could still buy tickets at 13:00 that same day. | |

Thanks for qualifying us. Yes, I know the reasons for feeling left out: I booked for Geneva and Helsinki. So please do not dismiss us. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |
