CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS SH!T ??!!!

In the SOLD section, someone has paid over £800 (inc fees) for two tickets for the afternoon show tomorrow. Sickening.

No mention of how the purchaser is gonna get around the poss 'ID check' at Venue...

if you were a tout and set to make £600 from two tickets you'd just buy 3 and take the people in then leave, still £500 in the pocket

Can't make first show driving from Leamington - but got Standing for 2nd show Yay - can hopefully hit the queue for 6-6:30...

What about Thursday..?

Swap it for floor and come to the bar!

Last Sale Price: £520.00 per ticket for afternoon show. Making a killing at desperate fan's expense. Bring back the all day queues!!

Which side is this bar in relation to the stage. might ditch the car and stay over

He really needs to shake the setlist up now, been pretty much the same for a good while now. What would you like to hear?

As you look to the stage, there are bars to the left and right middle. I'm going left and will probably wear my maroon Starfish and Coffee t-shirt!

I despise touts, but if someone is stupid (or rich enough) to pay £600 for tickets that are still available at £75, then you have to say that's there issue.

I'll take this over 7 hour queues any day.

The tickets are a little more costly than i would have liked, but it's Prince in a relatively small venue with fantastic acoustics. I think many of us have been spoilt with these £10 tickets earlier in the year.

OK, so, how do you actually print the tickets off?

Can't print mine off either, says "ticketfast unavailable"????

Got tix for the first show, juhuu!

TRied for over an hour for the second show but no luck, it must be sold out by now for sure

what Sly said !

to all those who managed to get tickets..."i hate you so much right now..arrrrrrggggghhhh"!!!

thankyou.x.

So wish I could go, hope you all have an amazing time & hope P delivers 2 amazing shows.

Phew, got standing tickets for both. Looking at Seatwave is just depressing though. Those prices!

I think i preferred a day in the pouring rain o/s the Electric ballroom than that ticketmaster experience, it is so frustrating. Anyway, another beautiful night guaranteed.

Mind you, the weather tomorrow in town looks pretty crap for queuing!

Wonder if Zoopla got any umbrellas left over from Feb.

had a ticket all lined up...then my other half shouts " we dont have a babysitter for thursday morning ".. so i pressed the button of doom and let it go...wish i was free and single...never mind the young bit..that would do...only kidding pam

Got the same problem here so your not alone.

I think the best way to deal with it is pretend that Prince is not playing tomorrow night.

I'll be in my Starfish and coffee number tomorrow. Say hello!

You at the early show SM?

No luck scoring tickets for either show!! How did people get both!? Anyone get a spare for either show?? What's the trick with Ticketmaster? I never manage to get tickets with them! (Pretty sure half their allocation goes to touts and their own secondary market site!!)

I got nothing for the first 10 minutes, whilst my phone was buzzing mad with friends who had bagged them, then I got though once (bought for first show) and got through again (bought for second show).

They seem to be randomly coming up. Someone I know got a row B late show seat at 13.30.

Looking for one ticket, message me if one comes up.

Thanks

To give you an idea of the demand, a girl who sits near me in current office job was getting some too.

Not being able to print tickets is a massive balls up for a show in 24 hrs IMO

Yeah, I can't print mine off either. Tried phoning Ticketmaster, held on forever so gave up. Now sent a message through their Facebook page. No response yet.

Ticketmaster are saying they will be available to print tonight or tomorrow AM.

I'm getting excited. I haven't seen Prince for......two weeks!

ha ha, I haven't seen Prince for SEVEN YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At dead on 12, I couldnt get a ticket, a few mins later (and once I had checked the seating chart and knew id like to stand) I chose level 1 standing and got through.

Just need to keep trying, also its worth registering an account with them so theres little chance of being timed out etc.

Anyone confirm the seating plan? Id have thought standing level 1 is where you can get up front?

I logged on at 11.55 and kept on refreshing every few seconds so that I could get tickets as soon as they went on sale. I chose level 2 seated as I'm only 5 foot 2 and wouldn't see much from the floor unless I got right at the front of the stage which you can do on level 1 by the way if you can make it to the front. I got my tickets at literally 12 on the dot and got Row B. I can't see how Row A could possibly have gone that quickly so I don't know who got those.

Whenever it looks like it's gonna be a fast sell I just do best available and get past the recaptcha quick

It wasn't even 12.01 and I got row C.

Must be holding tickets for industry types etc and their own bastard touts no doubt.

Does anyone know how many seats in a row at the Roundhouse, I can't find it anywhere?

Cheers
