This last minute stuff is getting really irritating for London. I have 2 friends who have never seen Prince but REALLY want to go. One was having an operation in the week of the other UK shows, the other was abroad before and lives in Portsmouth. Latter friend just can't drop everything at work now and make it up to London for tomorrow.

Agree, i know we all wanted a ticketed London show, but giving us a day and half notice is not very helpful. Maybe these were just an after thought after Berlin got cancelled and there will be some larger London shows coming up.

Roundhouse has a curfew of 1am, i have been to this venue many times and the only ones that end at 23.00 are the top acts that use a curfew as a excuse.

But if anyone dont believe me, i dont give a f*ck, go argue with yourselves.

I'm always arguing with myself...I always win!!

NO YOU DON'T!!!!

Yes I do!!!!

No you DON'T!!!!!

oh this could go on a while lmao

I made it to the Shepherd's Bush show in February too but went alone because again, no-one around could drop everything because of outside commitments. Lord knows what it's like for people with kids. These things absolutely can be worked out with a minimum of one week notice though. Although for my particular friends, being abroad and having a scheduled operation are viable excuses.

C'mon man. Charging £75 a ticket should be ONE show ONE night! Really don't know what to do - feel like whichever show I pick will be the worse one.

Good to see him back. Too short notice to get baby sitters but at least it's ticketed this time. Progress.

Now release an album!

It's definitely crappy. Just be sure to let everyone here know which show you're going for

Of course, it would be "unEnglishGentlemanly" to do otherwise sir.

Would love to be there but a combination of work, kid, and being in Manchester means it's sadly out of the question. Been lucky enough to see him 3 times already in 2014 so I don't feel to bad (until the reports come rolling in, anyway).

Good luck London - have a great couple of shows! Roundhouse is an awesome venue.

As much as I love Prince, I think the pricing point is too high for a two shows a night evening. The demand is there if they can spread the word quickly. I didn't see it in today's Metro though.

The ticketmaster links are now live.

As I suspected the prices are £75 plus £7.50 fees or £85 plus £8.50 fees. There will no doubt be a ticketing charge on top of that too.

Mmm. Seems an awful lot for a show that may be 1hr - 1hr30min.

I'm coming off of a commercial shoot and will be buggered. Anyone know what would be the best SEAT in the house? I'm thinking the second level close to stage? Suggestions welcome...

I thought a few years back he said he'd never use Ticketmaster because of the inflated prices

But the late show is so tempting

One of the arena shows was only 1.5 hours I think wasnt it? Friday night in manchester wasnt much more. I think people for some reason expect him to play for hours on end for every show, when you buy a ticket for someone else, you only tend to get 1.5 hour shows or something anyway so unless he takes the mick and does 45 mins I think your getting what you pay for really.

I agree. Think we're so used to him giving him so much time that anything less seems shortchanged. I am still wondering whether to buy in advance or not or try and get a cheap ticket on the door....

anyone know which seating layout they will use? Its either all standing downstairs on floor or there is also an seating chart that shows some seats on floor behind standing ga.

So, advice is to avoid the first show and for the 2nd show, there's no certainty that they can change the 11pm curfew. Mmmmm. Seriously thinking of just leaving it and keep my London Prince 2014 memory sweetly enshrined with the Sheperds Bush gig.

Come on man its £75 for a cup of tea in London, you lot can afford it.

Let's be sensible. If the curfew is 11, they wouldn't be advertising a 9.45 door for the second show. That would be shite.

I'm getting a seat at the back for the early show. I bet it's gonna be spesh.

None of my 'normal' friends can go. So I'll be looking shifty on my own (again) If anyone wants to say hi. Flat cap, very good looking etc. Can't miss me. Very tall, so stand out in a crowd - 5ft 9.
