Nothing much has changed. Still can't get a single ticket for anything under the $199 level, and that's just too much for a mediocre seat watchin' P play piano in that size room.

I guess I'm getting old, but it is about value. I have a better seat for Peter Gabriel and Sting in July for about half the price -- for a longer show with similar level of "genius" (whatever that is), a show built for an arena.

I haven't seen Prince since 2012 and live right by Oakland, which has been lucky to have a lot of Prince shows since then. But price has been a factor along with availability. There are a lot of people who can afford $250 a ticket, casual fans. God bless 'em.

I understand if the best seats are super expensive. I just want to be able to get something second tier that's good for around $100.

What you need to do is select $275 for the price, and then on the right and uncheck every option except main floor. Hope this helps!

Ya'll must be having some kinda luck I ain't having for this concert. I went on just now and was offered the same lousy over-priced seat over and over again until I was told no tickets were available. lol Enjoy the show, everyone who is going.

[Edited 3/4/16 14:13pm]

yeah but I can only pay $50-maybe 100 tops.

wish I had the $275...

EDIT: just saw sec G,row 11 for $275!!!

that's half price.

wow...

Funkenberry posted the flyer on Facebook.... Thats about all I know. Double the price of the Paramount Show afterparty. Maybe he'll stay on stage 6 minutes instead of 3....

Got section 122 row 22 tickets just now!

$115 after fees basically. Not bad for lower level considering that the very back of the balcony at Paramount theater was $99 plus fees and I missed out on that.

Super stoked.

Oh my Lord what a night!! I had front row center right in front of Prince (and seated in front of his gf) and the show was so good! And then the after party until after 4am! Imo, the after show was better than the concert. Dead to the world today--need to recover.
