Quite sure Prince cancelled his last Saskatoon date in 2001 or so, I saw him in Regina, but with no Regina date set, maybe ticket sales will be better. I will go to Winnipeg, won't hold my breath for an aftershow like he did last time he was in the Peg (LeRendezvous). Has he been doing any aftershows on Welcome to... tour?

I called VIP Nation, because I am in the same situation. They said that if I buy the Calgary tickets, then send them an email with the 2 order numbers; 1 for Vancouver and 1 for Calgary, they will fully refund the Vancouver order.

I would also like to know the answer to this question. I think that in general he has cut way back on the aftershows in recent years but that is just a guess. | |

That is awesome. Hopefully they extend the same courtesy to me. Thanks. "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith. If we crave some cosmic purpose, then let us find ourselves a worthy goal" - Carl Sagan | |

Does anyone have any advice on how to watch/find out about an aftershow?? This would be an ultimate experience for me as I am a huge fan and I have seen him a few times, but never an aftershow. | |

Check the org via smart phone the night of concert-also check twitter.

This is my first Prince concert (Toronto) and I'm very excited!
How are his setlists? Does he still play a lot of pre '91 stuff?
Not to derail the thread, but does Shelby J mean we'll get a weaker setlist on this tour or something? | |

Would be glad to meet you!! He's cancelled Saskatoon.
Am beyond pissed off. I already bought cheaper seats because I was going to have my "once in a lifetime" moment in Saskatoon.
If you have tickets go on sale for Calgary today, Princey... wouldn't it have been better to tell us that you cancelled Saskatoon (for the third time) before then? | |

What he cancelled Saskatoon? Where do you get those informnation when he cancels a show? I'm going to Halifax, Montreal and Ottaw and want to know if it's ok to go before I buy my bus tickets!
Sad for you.. sucks Yeah, I love Graffiti Bridge movie, so what? ''Oooooooooooh Montreal, say it!''

via email:
10 days from Nov 18th... do you think any VIP seats at the other shows will still be available? I have to laugh (and cross my fingers) otherwise I will cry. | |

His set lists are amazing, a mix of everything. He frequently shouts out to his old school fans & swiftly follows up with a thrilling little something.
I've never seen a show without Shelby j & i've always had the time of my life. I think people bash her as she takes time away from Prince & after all thats, what were there for.
BE WARNED: I went to my first show Nov 2010. It's addictive, 26th Nov 2011 will be my 7th. You come away wanting mooooooooore.
Wishing you the amazing time, i expect we will have, Lets go crazy x
Thank you Prince, for a life time of joy & pleasure x | |

"scheduling conflicts" Wonder what that means. . . | |

My tickets to the London show arrived today | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Went back in and noticed they've got decent seats in section 102--the section I would have rather had than the section 107 I've got. Oh, well. It is what it is. 
That's disappointing. I was going to see Elton John for the first time in September, and the show was cancelled due to scheduling conflicts...
But what if you can't get VIP tickets to another show? Do they have to be VIP?

"poor ticket sales" | |

I'm guessing that the Saskatoon show was cancelled because it was scheduled on a Sunday. How many times has the 'lil guy played on a Sunday recently? I can't think of any. Occupy Alphabet Street!

The only reason I got VIP for Saskatoon was because I couldn't get a lower bowl ticket that I liked even though I started right when tickets went on sale. I hate ticketmaster... kept giving me the same damn seat behind the band. No options. I panicked when I searched for 2 instead of 1 and the lower bowl was sold out. Be damned if I was going to sit in crappy seats.
Another former orger is out airfare as he can't cancel his ticket. I've got a $100 ticket for Winnipeg now that I don't need since I managed to get a floor seat after some creative financial manouvering this morning. Otherwise I would have had to wait the two weeks for the refund to show up and try again. I was just guessing that it would be the same scenario... that I would have to spend the money since tickets by that point would have been on sale for 24 days.
I think his table seats probably weren't selling for our market. The concert might not have been a sell out... but I think tickets (other than vip) were selling decent. This is the third time he's cancelled Saskatoon though. I think there was a fair amount of skepticism that he would show. People holding off on buying till closer to show date? Local hype could have been better.
I'm still going to have my once in a lifetime moment. I'm just going to have to drive 8 hours to get there.

Any idea who is opening up for Prince at his Toronto shows? Or is it going to be 4 hours of non-stop Prince?
If I recall correctly, he had Mint Condition, E. Spadling and others join him on the Welcome 2 America tour. Is anyone joining him for the Welcome 2 Canada tour? | |

Got my ticket for Halifax yesterday and my ticket for Montreal last week... Yaaay!
Last one to get is for Ottawa but since it's a VIP and I can't know where I'm seated before the actual show.. I guess I won't recieve it by mail, but only when I get there, right? Yeah, I love Graffiti Bridge movie, so what? ''Oooooooooooh Montreal, say it!''

Yes he does, North Sea Jazz festival last summer in The Netherlands, third show was on a Sunday 2009: 2 concerts in Paris on a Sunday.
So there must be another reason Have a look at 'The W2A: Euro Tour Song Survey' http://prince.org/msg/12/362417 | |
