$250 to meet and greet someone who happened to be related to Prince. If this isn't using his passing for blatant fan exploitation I don't know what is. If they are delusional enough now to act like royalty, then heaven help us when they inherit the estate. . | |

If it were a meet and greet with his musical family, then I guess that would sit OK with me. I personally have zero interest in meeting Tyka or any of the other half brothers and sisters, plus whoever else considers themselves family. I think they are running the risk of getting a crowd of people who are going to be trying to educate them in the way they believe the estate should be managed. It sounds ill-judged to me, but good luck them. | |

Hopefully whoever does is respectful and isn't pestering them with questions about the investigation or estate. Paisley Park is in your heart

Given that the doors open at 8 the night of the concert, I'm thinking it is a competing event and the family will not be at the concert. Or at least not for long. I hope that's not the case. Both Judith Hill and Liv Warfield are scheduled to perform at Xcel and apparently are special guests at the dance parties. It is telling though that PRNFamily hasn't said anything about the Xcel show and Londell McMillan hasn't commented on these dance parties. Paisley Park is in your heart

But as for the topic of the thread, this holds no interest for me. Put some new music out or some concert recordings for sale and I'll be super excited and celebrate that. RIP | |

According to the name of these three special events, the dance parties are going to last "until dawn". This means that, if they wish, those attending the tribute concert at Xcel can also attend the dance party afterwards. Let's please try to keep this positive. Prince's family have stated their support for the Xcell official tribute on Twitter: "The Twin Cities will be IT this October" and they say that it's because of the following: -#PRNFamily Dance Parties -Official Prince Tribute -Paisley Park Tours -Our Beautiful State | |

I would like to go on the 14th but i feel conflicted...i like the dance party atmosphere while at the same time feel weird about it. I don't know what to think of meet & greet option, it could be under good intentions but what can you say to them that's already been said and already know what you can not say.
It would of been nicer if they did this at Paisley Park instead, after the evening tours and would be much more convienent (well for my situation) | |

That's my impression as well, definitely seems competing - especially since those previous tweets about the Xcel one, like 'this is not the official family event, stay tuned'. They could have made it Wed, Friday Saturday... Dance where y'are, just groove y'all.

The Dance Party goes until 4am on Thursday vs 2am Wed and fri nights. So Yeah I think they might be at the concert of a bit. Doors don't open until 9. Well 9 for people like me who will not be spending $250 on his family that he didn't seem all that close to. Also special gift would be nice if we knew what it was before shelling out an extra $50 at it being a t-shirt | |

I don't see anything wrong with the dance parties...except for the tasteless VIP category and pricetag. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Well this is a complete fail for Friday Night. I get in and it says GA $250. Wed night shows $31.21 just fine. SMH Anyone get Friday Night for $31.21? [Edited 9/26/16 8:18am] | |

i was surprised to see $250 for general admission while the other option is $77.77. That has to be a error or else there will be no $31.21 option | |

Looks like a screw up. Better go for early admission. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

What a lame way to get people to sell out early admission! Hope this wasn't intentional.

I selected $77.77 then go through and enter my card information and then it tells me I've been charged $280?! I'm about to unleash a beast on them - what a @#$%ing scam! Dance where y'are, just groove y'all.

Yes got 2 for Friday. $39 vs $89 I just couldn't bring myself personaly to spend that much extra for 2 tickets to get in 2 hours early. That's just me though. I'll be upset though if the free gift is something really nice. | |

That can't happen until the Estate is rectified. Dance where y'are, just groove y'all.

I get the feeling Bremer, Londell, Graceland etc. are just the scapegoats. It's easy to go after lawyers and banks assuming all they care about is money and don't have Prince's best interests in mind. But selling VIP tickets for $250 to meet his siblings....seriously? And people think a $12 tasting menu of his favorite foods is tacky... Paisley Park is in your heart
