I think this whole thing is very, very optimistic. I think he could do a few arena dates but they would have to be spread across the country, say 2 in London and 1 each in Birmingham and Manchester. This O2 arena is going to be about a 17 to 23 thousand capacity, no chance they'll get any where near selling all 7 out. The club dates would be amazing to go to though. I think if he wanted to make an impression again over here he should play Glastonbury, yeah that old nugget! I possibly only speak for myself but the fact that London is getting yet another set of events is just sickening to me. ALL YOU DOUBTERS...YOU REALLY DONT HAVE A CLUE ???....THESE 7 GIGS WILL SELL OUT FAST!!!...I RECKON IN A COUPLE OF DAYS THEY WILL BE GONE IF THERE IS ANY GOOD PROMOTION AT ALL....140,000 TICKETS GONE !!!...PRINCE HAS A HARDCORE FAN BASE OF AROUND 50,000 FANS IN THE UK WHO WILL BUY EVERYTHING HE RELEASES...HIS CASUAL FAN BASE IS MAYBE AROUND ANOTHER 100,000 THEN YOU HAVE HIS EUROPEAN FANS....HE COULD SELL DOUBLE THIS NUMBER EASILY.... . .YOU ARE IN FOR A BIG SURPRISE WHEN YOU SEE HOW FAST THESE SELL.... | |

He has many fans over here & the tickets will sell fast just like they did for the hammersmith apollo (ONA Tour) last time around ,yeah i know that the apollo is smaller than the O2 & he only did 3 or 4 nights that time around but they were all sellouts & after the last couple of years it seems he is getting a better rub off the press now ..... which the god damn genius deserves!!

Perhaps they will sell fast.... to touts!! I'd like to know where you get your figures from, 50,000 Hardcore fans? 100,000 casual fans? Ok, how many copies did '3121' sell? How many copies did 'Ultimate' sell? Put together not 150,000 I'd say. | |

I'm pretty sure he does, back when Prince wasn't doing so well here in America he went over there and they loved him, and to this day I think the London fans are more loyal to Prince, He's criticized by his own people the worst! | |

NouveauDance said: The UK has always had a strong fanbase, but it shrank a lot in the 90s due to Prince's drop in commercial success and the all
 stuff.
Since these are the only dates in EUROPE and they're sticking to London only, I assume they're banking on European fans and concert goers making the trip across the channel, because 21 nights is a helluvah lot of bums on seats for someone like Prince, in the UK. Good point. This would seem to be the case, especially when one takes into account his stronger chart positions for his new music in European countries other than the U.K. | |

The O2 exclusive tickets for all 7 nights went on sale at 9.00am and were sold out by 9:25am. | |

Well It seems, however I could be wrong, that most of the 2000 tickets are in the hands of touts. There are over 270 auctions for pairs of ticket on e.bay for Prince this August (time 13.40 Uk time).
I think the test of his popularity will come tomorrow... at 9am....by the PC screen and your mouse...I'll be there too! | |
