HI PRINCE!!!
if U read someday this message...WHY DO U DO THAT 2 YOUR FAMS???
To pay about 100 Euros for another concert in Rotterdam , it's too much...TOO MUCH
Dear, I love so much your music and U are a very important person and an influence 2 me, but I must tell U that
WE AREN'T RICH
Do U know how much effort cost all this for us???
IS THIS THE NEW SPIRITUAL REVOLUTION???
Is This "the DAWN"???
Please, don't abuse, and remember...MONEY DON'T MATTER 2NITE.

I wish U love..I Wish U Heaven

Yes I agree, a 100 $ is too much. Let's hope the Rotterdam price is a bit less! PLEASE, I am just a student with no cash in his wallet. Do U want me to eat bread the whole next month?

Peace, let's wait and C for the Rotterdam prices. Fingers crossed...

Evidently MONEY DOES MATTER 2NITE!!
It aint THAT much to pay,seeing as its been TOO long since he was last over performing here-$100 every few years for a nite u aint gonna 4get in years,I'd say it was money well spent.
I DO get your point tho.

---

$100 ain't so bad, at least you'll KNOW you're getting a show.

Money isn't everything but the lack of it, is!

$100 of anything is too much when you don't have it.

Eso eso, y te lo dice una que no puede ni ir a un puo concierto porque está en la ruina!!!
Que envidia me dais los que vais snif snif

Rather you have the money or not, the point is paying twice in one nite and paying for the aftershows when we never had to is too much to expect from the fans, I will never pay twice in one nite.

Can you realize that he was performing basically 3 shows for the price of 1? He wasn't making as much as he could and he was probably paying for the clubs himself. Really, now he has to make something when he tours are you people who are complaining about him being Greedy for Money crazy or What?

ronnie said:

Well hell, $20 is too much when you don't have it, for that matter...

I hear y'all though. The most I've ever paid for an aftershow is $30 (w/ membership). But I hear this is an additional CONCERT, not an aftershow. If that's the case, you don't HAVE to see the same show twice in one night. Just a thought...

SunFlowerz said:

Tell me what is your limit for a show??? his shows are priceless but we are living now in a economic recess and not everybody can pay all that money each time, he should know that his music reaches all layers of society not only the rich like you!!!

TRUE,But Work and you'll have it. Prince is so damn generous bending over backwards and he's not a welfare case or Charity . Sorry if some of his fans can't afford his shows and everything,but he can't do everything for Nothing! I have always Worked my Ass Off for Everything I got so I Never expected anything for Nothing. I don't Depend on My Parents or Anything I worked for it and I worked Hard! Very Hard!

Well you are not paying for two shows in one day.
The show will start after midnight so that is techincaly the next day - Get your facts straight.
this is a separate concert - not an aftershow
can't you people read ...

Work! Pure and Simple! You want something Work for it! Nothing is Free and there are no Free Rides in Life! Pay the concert price or don't go. You really don't have a choice you know. Prince makes the rules and he's the Boss. I think he's Always Amazing and Fair. Please fans , work and save it's the only way.

i heard prince read this thread and is terribly upset..he's due to release a press statement confirming that from now on everything he does will be for free..he's also compiling a list of ppl who have spent any money on his concerts, cd's etc..so he can reimberse them immediately

I have work Natasha and I can afford to go to his shows, but I also think about people who are not able to go due to the high prices of the tickets!!! I think it is too simple to say, just don't go!!!

Well, seeing that I payed $125 USD for ONA, I'd say it's somewhere around there. And I'm not rich by the way - rich is paying $5,000 for 2 tix to a Giants game! Not me, a dude I saw on the news.

I could see if this was an aftershow, but it's ANOTHER CONCERT. You people have gotten off cheap if you only paid $39 for the first show. Nobody's making you go, you don't have to be greedy (though I understand your anguish). Better borrow some $.

100$ isn't bad???
ok, I come from Spain, so... 270$ (flight) + 50$ (room per nite) + 50$ (premium ticket) + about other 50$ (for other expendidures) and NOW 100$ more (the 2nd concert) ... total: 470$ only 4 one nite ...
Tell me, do U think it isn't bad yet? Prince must think of the people who doesn't live there in Holland. 100$ is too much for many of us. 2 be in one of his concerts is becoming only a question of how big is your wallet, that' not good for the music, it became a busyness, not Art.

Supply and Demand. Imagine how much more difficult it would be 2 accomodate every1 if his shows and music club were that much more cheaper. I don't agree with the high prices either. That's why I feel Prince should drop or alter the club so things wouldn't seem like a $ issue all the time.

supply&demand???
errr right!
the paris aftershow isn't sold out yet..so i guess he should discount his prices eh?

well your all complaining and eye see your points.eye 2 think its getting 2 much $.but why don't we all just refuse 2 pay anything anymore untill we get what's been promised.why is there nobody saying this at the soundcheck or afterparty right in his face.why don't we all turn our backs 4 acouple off minutes at the soundcheck 2nd november.a little strike will not be a bad thing.and tell him tis is all getting 2 much 4 our wallets and that the npg club is borring and not good this year.
but nobody has the guts 2 get this out .

I wouldn't have any problem to ask him why tickets are so expensive, I've talked with him once,
In fact, if I'd have the chance to talk to him it'd be the second thing I'd ask him. The first it would be, What's wrong with Spain?.
He should understand it.

But my dear it is all about the money!

Uh Oh!

Please, don't abuse, and remember...MONEY DON'T MATTER 2NITE.

Oh yeah? Why do you think he does it then? To C U? Shaddapp and dance!

Going to a concert is not exactly a neccesity. If you have the money fine, if not it's a bummer but it is nobody's fault.

adorable2 said:

Of course it's not a neccessity, and of course if U go to a concert is only because U want to do it, that's right, but U can't complain about the music busyness, talk about love, peace... and then ask this kind of prices.
In the End...he is in the busyness too...it's a shame

I think $100 is fine for a club that offers 4 Prince cds that are not going to be found anywhere else legally. That's of course, if that is actually what is being offered. This probably now won't be the case with One Nite Alone Live being given as the last 3 CDs of this year's membership. Of course, he'll probably throw Xenophobia our way and get away with it again.

I also think offering Prince club members with the opportunity to purchase the best seats in the house, as well as provide access to soundchecks, afterparties and the exciting possibility of an aftershow is very cool indeed. However, some of these prices that Prince is selling tickets at is becoming difficult to stomach. Additional $100 in London compared to a much more reasonable $39 in Paris. Some US shows were $125 for club members.
