just speculation on my part but i think he'll play a 3rd eye set on sat then the npg horn revue on sunday. He treats 3rd eye like a new unit so he doesn't want to charge as much + he has all the horn headz to pay hence the bigger price come sunday. Plus the horns are playing with Liv on Friday night so their prolly off until sunday.

dont think so as its advertised as 3 eyed and theres a pic of them so there are contracts involved.

infact if they sux and dont play you could get a refund for false advertising just a catch 22.

so i say its 3rd eyed and could be others also .i still think theres an 11.30 curfew there

i believe it was advertised as 3rd eye last week too though. Yes all the members of 3rd eye are in the band but their doing prince standards. I don't think we're going to see him shred on guitar on sunday, just sayin'. i'm assuming this will go on sale tomorrow

Don't blame Prince for this. He has nothing to do with it. I believe this was a Ticketmaster mistake. That there may have possibly been negotiations for a second show, that they were given word of this and put up an event that had not yet been confirmed.

The Fox theater site never showed a second show. And no notices from the promoter Another Planet who are perhaps the best promoters in the business.

I've never experience such INSANITY in buying tickets to a show in the 30+ years I've been doing so.

It would be naive to think that Prince has nothing to do with this.

Ticketmaster announces thouseands of shows a year without a hitch. They suck but they have a system that works.

I've neve once come across a show that when I was trying to buy tickets the page just disappeared at the moment tickets went onsale. Reappeared later that day and then disappeared the next.

It's chaos and immaturity. The man is a child.

I love him but at the same time, like family he annoys the fuck out of me.

Prince Plays Oakland's Fox Theater This Weekend

Tickets are sold out, but a second show may be added

Prince Plays Oakland's Fox Theater This Weekend

Getty Images/Ethan Miller

Prince is playing at Oakland's Fox Theater this weekend.

A Prince concert at Oakland's Fox Theater on March 15 was quickly announced and sold out around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday night, but there's still hope if you want to see his royal funky highness in the Bay Area.

It won't be a cheap affair, though. Tickets were initially $99.50 for general admission on the floor and $199.50 for a seat in the balcony, but floor space is currently going for $250 on the online ticket marketplace StubHub.

Prince performed a surprise concert at the Palladium in Hollywood last weekend. He treated the crowd to a three hour and 40 minute set that included his unstoppable hits as well as deep catalog cuts for die-hard fans.

Rumors of a second show being added at the Fox for Sunday (March 16) are so far unsubstantiated, but it would be wise to keep visiting the Fox website and Twitter feed for any possible announcements.
