I would love it if Prince did a tour of House o' Blues across the country...I think the Chicago HoB is a great, great venue.

I bought one and then found out it was 21 and over. They now say they will refund my purchase. Maybe one ticket will be on there later.

NPGMC needs to be informed that we REQUIRE more advance warning since they charged us for their service. We also need some more goddamn tickets, and probably more restrictions on how many you can buy at once, and cut down on the VIPs and celebs and put more member tickets up.

If the show is announced AND tickets go on sale AND they sell out all in a few hours?? That's seriously a fucked up service there, NPGMC.

That's not exactly unusual, especially in an area like L.A. which has a sizeable music club membership...concerts sell out within hours all the time...

Well it seems NPGMC won't be getting any special treats only let in first. A post from a moderator indicated there weren't plans for a soundcheck, etc. because of such short notice and the fact that Prince will be coming from the Grammy's. So, it may not be so bad to get tix from HOB or Ticketmaster. We just won't be up so close. HOB is standing room and loud as hell so I'm sure it'll be a good experience wherever we stand. thumbs up!

i think i saw some of your posts over at NPGMC too. i asked PP9 if there were any other member perks. if i get tickets on Friday, i'll be driving up from SD after my brother's anniversary party. any idea how much the tickets were selling for at NPGMC? so that i can keep it in mind as i'm forking over $$$ to Ticketmaster?

thanks!

especially in smaller venues.. I feel for the folks who didn't get one.! is it only sold out to members or does the HOB still have any available? luckily kd called me justin time to race home in heavy traffic and successfully grab two.

$75 is more than I got. It's cool.
I've been pretty blessed lately.

NAMM got me free shows with my true faves PFUNK & LIVING COLOUR. Plus some sweet discounts and surprises with WAR, MACY GRAY, SOULIVE, ME'SHELL, MAKTUB, BO DIDDLEY and MACEO; plus the ongoing residency of NU PHOUND NATION makes me feel well-steeped in funk.

The Prince and Stevie shows would be sweet, but I ain't sweating what I can't get at. Y'all have fun (with a "K"), I know you can do it.

Sunday night, there's FISHBONE gig over in CULVER CITY for about a fifth of the PRINCE show.

FISHBONE, LONNIE MARSHALL, and SEAttle band PHONKBUTT in Culver City at Johnny
Foxx's on Motor Ave.:

Lon Ho (featuring Lonnie Marshall) opens that show.


This is like $16. I kinda like that number more.

I'm not contesting the fact that it's unusual for a concert to sell out in a matter of hours (or shorter). What I have a problem with is the fact that the club gives such short notice and has a notoriously spotty email delivery system, so MANY MANY members only found out about this show after it was already sold out.

Ticketmaster doesn't charge people to be on its mailing list, and they give you a fuck of a lot more advance warning than that.

I just spoke to HOB staff and they will be $79. I think I can deal with a $4 facility charge. smile
