PrintableSo, had to work late - get home - check twitter and the org - find tickets have been announced and then gone in under 20 mins. GUTTED! Anyone with a spare, please orgnote me - I'll pay over the £70 if need be! Aaaaagggghhh.
These are not the days of wild, but the days of weep.
Congrats to all that got tickets, though. Fair play. Have an amazing time!

Shocked to see tickets are already on Seatwave at £249....
I got 2 for Friday night in a panic that I got through....
Gutted for all those who are missing out!
However, BUZZIN that I'm going.
Couldnt make any of the London dates, and was sooooooo worried I'd miss out....

I think I'm gonna be sick. Been checking in all day. Had Twitter minimised for 45 mins and BANG! Too late!
What's the capacity of the Academy? | |

kunoichi said: In buckets of tears! Was so excited now crashed completely. I'm gutted! Why switch to tickets? I was all prepared to q. Bag is already packed. Aaaaargh!! That's exactly how I feel. Glad that some folks here are sorted but wish that it wasn't so haphazard. Everyone learns that queuing is the way to go then total game change. | |

I think that was Friday the first show and Saturday the second show. They later tweeted that Saturday now sold out. RIP  | |

They should have sold 1 per person, like they did when queuing in London on entry, at least then it might have kept scalpers at bay and given fans the chance to buy.
Debating paying £500 for 2 tickets on seatwave .... but i'm convinced he will play 2nd gig on both nights. [Edited 2/19/14 14:25pm] | |

Stubhub at £160 got to be worth a shot. Not sure about booking fee. | |

I think 4 each was too much should have been 2. I think I need to go sit and eat chocolate. | |

Got two for Friday. Bloody hell that was stressful.
Now (being a Prince fan and a worrier) I'm stressing about getting the confirmation email etc | |

Checked twitter before driving home when there was nothing, got home half an hour later and sold out so I was only too ready to clutch on to any hope ! | |

Hi if anyone has 2 tix for friday please please send me an org note , willing to pay more than asking price | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
I know how you feel...
Took over an hour for my confirmation email to come through and in the meantime, I was stressin'!!!
Hope yours is through....? | |

Stubhub tickets started at well over £200, they're now down into the £150s. Slowly, but surely, dropping in price. It's risky, but I'm gonna wait and see how low they get.. | |

Got ticket for Saturday. Did order one for Friday but not had any confirmation for that one so thinking it may not have gone through, didn't check order numbers in the excitement... gutted but thankful I'm going to the Saturday show so can't complain.
Stressful or what?!? 3121... Don't U Wanna Come? |

watch out for the booking fees + some tix will be sold on the door too. | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
If you end up getting that Friday ticket through.. wanna sell me it? | |

So to help those guys who missed out but are thinking of queueing can we please state the highest ticket number someone has for each show.
Venue on Wiki says 2600 Capacity.
So I have for starters
Friday: 1510 Sat : 664
If anyone has a higher number for either day, please post and we should be able to get an idea of number of tickets available on the door. Thx all. | |

I got my confirmations through - it's really sad that a lot of us here will not be able to go. Like everyone I was across all twitters and sites and saw nothing then got a text from a non prince fan who follows ticketline - fucking owe her big time, maybe making her a brew earlier today was actually a good idea! Hope some of u r able to get tickets in other ways but sorry ur gonna have to pay over the odds maybe. If we'd known it was a presale we'd have made wee agreements between us here I woulda thought. I am pleased I got tickets but feel bad for those that didn't. Take care everyone. Mikey Comin str8 outta Preston... |

Me and my cousins ended up with 8 for Friday and 12 for Saturday. Bloody stressful at the time though! Just pot luck I suppose. We may have spare for Saturday, but not sure yet will offer to Prince fam friends first, and then post if still have any by tomorrow. Anyone going wants to meet up beforehand org me or post, should be great.  | |

I WILL TAKE ANY SPARES!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |

BUT what do they mean by on the door? According to academy website the box office to 'buy tix on the door' is open 8am in the morning. Will they be selling them tomorrow morning? If so, I have no chance up here in newcastle | |

You're higher than me - I got 1164 for the Firday night! [Edited 2/19/14 15:03pm] | |

If anyone has a spare for Friday night, orgnote me the price. | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
I always thought "on the door" means pay (cash) on entry and go straight in to the gig Homer Simpson: "I call the big one Bitey"!! | |
