it's a bit like those January sales back in the 80s (when they still meant something) and people pitched tents to be first in line to buy a £3000 fur coat for £50.

Whose up for pitching a tent outside Ronnie Scotts?

Bit of a silly question really...who knows?

I could have Monday afternoon off and queue from about 13:15. But if there are 6,000 people there already I think I may have to be there for 12:59 otherwise it may be pointless. I really don't want to queue!

I could do this on Monday. . . . .. . . . . . . ..

.

if I can hold of my boss to take the day off work

if the trains are running

if I can find a cheap hotel

or yeah ....

and if I can get into the gig !

.

Ronnie Scotts will probably be the hardest gig to get into now with notice.

I reckon there will be thousands around the block looking to go to this one

I think he will play 48 shows lasting 25 mins on Monday to let everyone see him

. . . . and charge £13.43 each maybe ?

Maybe they're playing at some bloke called Ronnie's flat?

Indeed, early and late shows on Monday at Ronnie's.

I went to Ronnie's last Thursday on the strength of rumours and they said same thing then, so I am deeply sceptical. It's a great venue, but very small, maybe 250 capacity? I have to work at least am Monday, and then 2 hour drive plus tube, so if ppl start queing Mon am realistically I ain't getting in. Suggested to Kiran they raffle some tickets for those of us so far unable to get in. As far as I can see the same ppl are getting into every show.

There are a number of ways to offer tickets, like you said by raffle or the first 250 people who RT something on Twitter or something like that.

This queing and hope for the best is poor for a majority of fans.

I bet there are some fans who have seen 3 shows if you live in London and have no life outside of Prince

This fully booked shit is throwing me off.

I'm looking to start the que from about 6am.....you think that is a good time?

But then again, if this fully booked stuff doesn't get debunked, i may call it off and just keep waiting for my perfect gig.

I am sure if you start queuing at 6am you will be one of the 250 that will make it

If you have time to queue 14 hours before the gig you deserve to have a 1 on 1 show with Prince !!!

i think entry to ronnie scotts should be in order of who travelled the furthest combined miles to see prince this month

LOL. I take it you are going to stay down and attempt both. So are you going to queue all day outside Ronnies?

lol but then there are people willing to camp out. Its my only chance for awhile so i wanna make sure....your comment kinda gave me hope.

Now...if only this fully booked stuff can be rectified, i will be ready to give it my all!

I'm Nottingham?

So we have the possibility of people queueing up for a show that's not happening owing to the venue being already booked for both shows. Could be a daytime show though.

Ronnie's is sold out for the first show on Monday night that has already been planned. So, I would guess they could be playing after this first show, but in the week if you have bought tickets for the first show you can stay all night. So noone is going to leave if they know prince is on so they won't let anyone else in.

Plus with Ronnies membership scheme any space would be given to their members anyway.

So, I wouldn't waste your time queueing for such a tiny venue. It's a shame because it would be awesome. KOKO is best bet.

why would they announce such a gig if it is true what you are saying?...When Prince is planning rules change....simple as that..

I'm going tommorrw hopefully get in queue and on Monday Ronnie Scott's what are your plans I've never met any orgers so would be great to see some purple fans ☔️

I want to go to the Ronnies gig. Im traveling up to the venue for about 6-7am....but that's if i am going. Reading this thread has me conflicted lol

I'd love to see Prince at Ronnie Scotts, but it is 250 capacity.

The situation with queue jumping is going to be pretty horrific if some organisation is not put into place. Even just a few people joining others already in the line will have a very negative impact.

This sort of behaviour seemed reduced at Shepherd's Bush, but that of course, is a much larger venue.
