plus the first show which should start around 5PM will be during the day. You can't dim the place until the sun dims itself. I'm not much of a fan of daylight shows.

Update Dr FB:





But what is the source, where can we "subscribe to a reservation alert", who says the tickets go on sale at FNAC today for 100 or 130 euro's? Why not at www.ticketnet.fr or www.livenation.fr? Why do people at Funkenberry state things for facts without mentioning where they got it from?

yeah, i agree. this is killing me. haha LOL

btw. no offence, but what is up with your avatar. it scares me dude.

squirrelgrease said:

Let there be even more bootlegs then

10.00 o'clock.... and.... nothing.... nowhere.... no clue

Any news on where and when the tickets will be on sale?

Tickets:

Some places (FNAC) are saying 2PM CET some are saying 11AM CET some are saying 5PM on the net... we'll know soon.

Wouldn't it be cool if Prince had some type of internet based "fan" site that would give us a bit of heads up? Something like a subscription based multimedia site. Hell I'd be willing to pay $77 a year for that type of service... *sigh*

I use the site regularly for other tix and they are normally very good. Although I cannot say how they will cope with this short notice. But at least they have the shows on there. I can't see them on fnac.com at all yet.

From the French forum, posted by sigrist1:

Je viens d'avoir la billeterie FNAC au téléphone : les places seront mises en vente à 14h sur le site internet et à 15h en magasin. Par contre, toujours aucune info pour le prix des places...

D'ailleurs, je vous invite à lire la demie page dans le Parisien sur Prince : ils parlent de rumeurs comme quoi Prince resterait plus longtemps que prévu à Paris pour faire pleins de salle genre Olympia, Cigale, Zenith...

I just had the FNAC ticket booth on the phone: the seats will be sold at 14h on the website and 15h in store. By cons, still no info on ticket prices ... Besides, I invite you to read a half page in Le Parisien on Prince: they talk about rumors that Prince would remain longer than expected to Paris full of Room type Olympia, Cicada, Zenith ...

Thanks Nina7!!! That's 1 pm London time. I'll be ready!

Do you expect some exclusive VIP Tickets, or any tix on lotusflow3r?

looks like the tickets may in fact go on sale tomorrow morning. will let you know

Browzer said:

Do you work for FNAC, Prince or Encore productions?

Browzer said:

according to dr fb: they are on sale on the website today and the shops tomorrow.

Another rumor circulating is that in fact Prince will organize a 30 night stint in Paris. He'll be on a tv show next Wednesday (Canal Plus, Le Grand Journal) there may be an announcement of the residency.

Browzer said:

where did you here that?

So... Why did I pay $77.- if I can't buy any tixz for this concert @ lotusflow3r?

Browzer said:

Sound very likly. This sunday gig may be more of a warm-up gig.

jethrouk said:

TV iTele just 5 minutes ago (Canal Plus subsidiary, and Le Parisien website) seems that there may be a press availability on Monday 12th of Oct. Again all very sketchy at the moment.

I'm asking me this question every day.

I want Blu Rays, SACD's from the last concerts and shows and not that poor quality videos there!

Browzer said:

being a prince fan is so stressfull

jethrouk said:

But also, at the end, very joyfull!

My Credit Card is shaking it's head at me.....

MichaelHogberg said:

yea i'm pretty excieted. think i will only be able to go to the evening show. though i don't particulaly fancy an early evening show anyway.

i am praying that he plays only a few hits and it is not so jazzy.

I was at La Fnac Châtelet at 9.18 this morning, no tickets are sold yet.

There were all fans and it was cool.

Hope to b at 14h (or is it 15h ?) at La Fnac again to buy tix for the two sunday shows.

Browzer said:

I'm normally quite sceptical about rumours like this but I'm starting to think this may actually happen

For the non-French speakers : FNAC has added a button to the homepage of fnacspectacles.com to switch to the English version.

Not everything is translated, but at least the reservation process is in English then.

LittleSister said:

i noticed that. still can't see anything pertaining to Prince though. hopefully they'll be a news item soon. least they are updating it tho.

From Funkenberry :

I went in the Fnac store this mornig. Opening at 10am (in france), the Fnac staff told us we’ll have to wait beetween 11 am to 2 pm to get tix.
Finally at 11 pm, we had the info confirmed that tix will only be sold the 9th, probably around midday.

so what about the online thingie? which is what i want to know.
