Sounds amazing! Do we have any more info about when that "official" public memorial service will be that they were talking about right from the beginning? (Maybe around August 13th?)

I don't know anyone in Chicago that got tix. We went through The Current, 7th Ave, directly to etix by calling. Nothing.

So, tomorrow since I am off work, I am going to have up the laptop, the desktop, the landline, and cell.

I need to see The Revolution. I want to be in the room with the musicians that share a stage, rehearsals, recording studios with Prince.

I have never seen Andre Cymone perform with Prince, but I dig his music. Fortunately, I saw Dez, since my first Prince concert was the 1999 Tour.

I have pcs with the Revolution from the Family Jamm at the Los Angeles Forum in 2003. The person I was so blown away to meet in the parking lot was my girl, Jill Jones... A.U.T. omatic. Tell me what to do. I hope she comes to the show.

We need to thank Prince for introducing us to His BANDS. They are musicians, not computer programs. How many times has Prince said, "This is my band." Let's honor Prince, by honoring his band, The Revolution.

This. So many band are livestreaming concerts these days. (We call it 'couch tour.') They could charge $25--make it a chartiable donation--and get a TON of eyeballs on it. I hope they will do this!

Yes, I hope they live stream it too. I'll probably cry through the entire show because of his absence, but I know I'll be even more depressed if I have to miss it.

I got 2 VIP tickets using The Current presale password, right away at 10am. It seems they were gone shortly thereafter.

I missed out on tickets yesterday because I typed The Current password into the wrong presale box on the first try. dunce By the time the screen refreshed and I tried again, the presale was sold out.

But I was able to get general admission tickets today so it's all good.

Presales were gone by the time my queue resolved. It looks like public sales are coming in batches, but so far I've had no luck...

Looking forward to the possibility of an 'official' PP event

Rub it in. Rub it in. Still nothing today. I had two other people online and the phone. I do not want to drive 6 hours to Mpls and not get into this show. Do I have to pull an Apollonia and sneak through the side door?

Orgers with tix! As soon as you know you can't go, please offer your tix for sale on this site.

I take refuge in knowing I will see Sheila E this Sunday at Taste of Chicago.

The event pages have updated its message from "tickets currently unavailable" to "sold out".

This is ridiculous!

They should have done this through a bigger venue!

Could not get tickets at all both days.

Not Available until the time of release and then instantly SOLD OUT!

This is shitty that they did this to Loyal Prince Fans!

All seperate and not all together anyway!

His career was more than just the Revolution.

So this is wrong on so many levels anyway.

I give up!

I guess It's not meant to be.

I didn't get anything right away at 11:00am either. I literally hit refresh until about 11:30am and got a VIP ticket for the Saturday show. I got a GA ticket for each show yesterday in the presale.

I was shut out for both the presales and the general sale. I started trying as soon as tickets went on sale. If you got through, consider yourself very fortunate.

I hope there is a webcast or that a recording is made available.

Why am I suprised by all this?

MJ Fans got screwed too. No Neverland Burial/Funeral.

But at least they had a bigger stadium to go to in order to get more fans to be able to attend plus the stadium nearby.

There is nothing for us.

So much 4

"The Revolution will be televised" I guess the WAR has begun. And we have to endure all this madness without him and that makes it all the more worse!

I tried & tried. Yesterday. Today. I called & simultaneously went online. On time. Caught up in the cue. No luck. StubHub has marked up tickets. There has got to be a better way for people to buy tickets who actually want to attend an event as opposed to making a couple of $$. sad cry I hope they add more shows.
