This show is gonna be a complete logistical nightmare to get to. The itinerary for this tour is so all over the place I already have jet lag. Gah. Nevertheless I'll be there...

Yeah, the order is bizarre.

I'm going to the first two Sydney concerts and all the Melbourne concerts of course, but I might have to stop there. Have decided not to go to Brissie (if there'd been two back to back I probably would have), and, given that I've committed to going back to Sydney on 27/5 to see Janelle, I'm really torn on this one. I could go up on the 22/5 and come back on the 28/5, but accomm. costs will be huge.

However, I don't know if Janelle has any other commitments from now until her Sydney concerts, which means that if they're going to do anything together, it's most likely to happen in that week.

I always thought I'd see every show of the tour when Prince finally got back to Oz, but he's just a bit too hard to chase with this schedule

At least I have a few days to think about it...

I feel exactly the same about this one. I'd love to go, but it would mean another trip down to Sydney and back midweek. Not the best of time for me. But I will consider it. I'll make a decision after the first Sydney shows I think - See what the shows are like, and whether or not I feel passionately enough to spend another $800 (tickets+flights+accom+taxis+food etc.) for just one more show...

But to all those living in Sydney: Funk yeah! All the best for Sydney #3!!

and thought keeping up with Toejam's band Cheap Fakes was difficult. Jeeezzz

^Cheers Bennett. Although we're not that bad - we've never charged you $450 for front row seats

Truck drivers and stage crew are gonna be going nuts

What a grueling schedule! They are seriously nuts doing it this way rather than just Sydney week 1, Brisbane Week 2, Melbourne Week 3, exit. Leave in time for extra dates, not difficult.

Well I guess Prince doesn't sleep anyway... The private jet will be burning some fuel!

I am going to all 3. Has to be done, Sydney siders.

I reckon I'll go to the 3rd show

just for fun

Yep, Ill be going to the 3rd show for sure. Just not sure if I should Buy my ticket on Monday morning or wait for a few days incase ticketek decide to be bastards with the best seating again.

Also im going by myself so could wait to see if anyone wanted to come with me. Regardless, im very excited i get to go to all 3 Syd Dates. after next fri and sat it will be great to know he is coming back to say goodbye to Sydney with a bang!

purple circle get!!!1

WOOO!

Who got tickets? I know I did!

Just bought tix for the wife & I to go to the third Sydney show (I went with mate Fri, brother Sat) both enjoyable but Sat the better in my opinion (more guitar). Looking forward to the Tues show and hope he leaves Sydney with a bang. Then hoping for similar exit in Melbourne for the 30th show. Got section 5 seats for the 3rd Sydney show...best seats so far (sect 25, sect 19)

What do we get on 22nd? What goodies await us?

I'll be there! Debating whether to buy a pair of purple pants or not....already have the pirate/puffy shirt, but more Vanity-style. Let's do this Prince.

....already have the pirate/puffy shirt,

"But I don't want to be a pirate!"

^ Every time I bring up Purple Rain, either one of my parents quotes that line at me! Let's be honest here....only Prince can rock the pirate shirt.

I'm going! I was at the first show in Sydney but since then I seem to keep hearing about how each subsequent show was better! It sounds a bit like the Melbourne crowds are more enthusiastic so now I really want to go to the last one in Melbourne...but I don't think it's going to be possible. Nevemind, I am going to see him again! Yipeeeee! When we moved here from London 5 years ago, one of the main things I was gutted about was that I didn't think I would ever see Prince live again. I'm so happy I was wrong!

Thats exactly what I'm afraid of..... after the concert on the 22nd. I wasnt meant to be going and after the first Sydney concert, although I was hyped from the FUNK I was also depressed that I may never see him again.

Please dont wait another decade to come back Prince!!
