? about views of symbol stage

I just got my tix for the April 21 show at the Forum but I surprisingly did not get very good seats for ordering exactly at 10am when they went on sale. I"m in section COL 12 which looks like almost the back of the stage facing the top of the cirlce. Does anyone who has been to his shows lately know if he uses the stage like Musicology or am I just going to be watching from behind?

Also if the Forum has a large screen that will face in all directions? the place is quite old and out dated from what I remember.

Sorry, I can't answer your questions but wanted to ask you what price the tickets were you purchased. I'm still trying to get through to even buy tickets. Looks like my TM wait is 15 minutes or more and it's been 20 minutes already so I might be here all day. lol

I would be pissed off if seated at the back and he did not frequent that area.

Why else (would you) have seats there?

I have tix in the same area but on the floor in Section G Row 4 and I was so happy they were only $25 but now I am wondering if we will see his back most of the time too. Still glad I only paid $25 to sit on the floor though. PLEASE everyone who sits in the area at the back of the circle on Thursday night the 14th, PLEASE tell us what the view was like and if Prince came to your side at all! THANKS!

For those concerned: the view from up top (COL 12) was fine. Prince was pretty mobile around the stage but it didn't matter cause a huge screen was showing everything anyways no matter where you sit.

I loved our seats in Section G on the Floor Row 4 but that's because I only paid $25 for them. He came over to the round area of the glyph at least 6 times and I saw him up close and personal and that alone was worth the price and more. If I had paid over $100 I would have been a little disappointed. If I paid way over that I would have been really upset at myself for paying that. I don't agree that those floor seats suck unless you want to see him every single second from afar. I do not like to see Prince from afar. I like him to be close and look at him while he's looking at me. That's the concert experience I prefer so Friday night rocked for me. Still on a Purple High although I wished he had played more that 90 minutes. I watched the big screen while he was on the other side of the stage so I didn't miss a thing. I think the people in the first row couldn't see the big screen as it was just above me in row 4.

Sounds like they were good seats, especially for the price. I'm like you, I don't want to see any concert from far away. I like to be able to see the expressions on the person's face when they perform. It's such a different vibe being close to the stage that it's hard to sit anywhere else once you've experienced that. Usually the tickets cost way to much and by the time the scalpers get them..forget it, which is unfortunate.
