Prince Announces L.A. Shows!!! Tix On Sale TOMORROW For First 3 At The Forum

Prince announced last week that he’ll be playing a Twenty One Night stand in the Los Angeles area as part of his Welcome 2 America concert tour. We got more details today in a press release from LiveNation. Highlights include:

- The first 3 shows will be at The Forum in Los Angeles, CA on Thursday, April 14, Thursday, April 21, and Friday, April 22. Tickets go on sale on Tuesday, April 12 at 10am Pacific time via ticketmaster.com

*(Below tix info from LiveNation press release)

*Prince Welcome 2 America Live “21 Nite Stand” Los Angeles Dates:

Thursday, April 14th - The Forum - Los Angeles On Sale: 4/12 at 10am

Thursday, April 21st -The Forum - Los Angeles On Sale: 4/12 at 10am

Friday, April 22nd - The Forum - Los Angeles On Sale: 4/12 at 10am

- In an effort to make the show affordable for all of his fans, Prince has declared that roughly 85% of all tickets will be available at $25, inclusive of all service fees.

-- Citi cardmembers will have access to preferred seats through Citi’s Private Pass Program. For complete details visit citiprivatepass.com

No word yet on who the special guests will be for each show, but past artists in New York, Oakland and the Carolinas have included Esperanza Spalding, Maceo Parker, Graham Central Station, Santana, Lalah Hathaway, Cee Lo Green, Cassandra Wilson, and Sheila E.

So that’s 3 shows we know of so far, 18 more to go. LiveNation says that additional L.A. dates and special guests will be announced shortly. We’re loving those ticket prices because that means more purple hippies will be able to go multiple shows.

And don’t forget to tune into the Lopez Tonight show on TBS this Wednesday night to catch Prince and the NPG performing live.

Hold on 2 your wigs, y’all! It’s about 2 get funky. – Dr.FB

Enjoy LA fans! Hope you have as much fun at the shows like us East Coast fans did!

dear god

i may just fly out to l.a.

Nice to know that he feels people who are wealthy in Hollywood deserve 85% of tickets to be affordable. Guess that the people in the south in the Carolinas who are really doing bad deserved to have at least 60% of the tickets be non-affordable. Of course, we still paid, including me.

I'm sorry I paid for 5 tickets and didn't spend a penny over $300. Maybe you should have gotten something a little more "affordable". Always complaining I tell ya.

On a side note:

I think LA is calling my name

i wanna go to L.A. so bad

I am flying to LA from New York just to see Prince again. He is worth the money. I hope to run into more fans from New York.

Well, anyone in the Carolinas who wanted to attend one of the W2A shows, at the time it was in that location, and was "doing bad" as you stated, financially and couldn't afford to go, obviously some made the choice not to attend for that reason, but... it is apparent, those who decided to attend, made that choice on their own, fully aware of the ticket prices at time of purchase. Glad you had a chance to attend though.

I live minutes away from the forum, and I have no desire to go. I'm still regretting the 3 night fiasco at the Nokia/L.A live a couple of years ago, and paid A LOT more money, in fact I felt he just took my money. I love Prince and I've been fortunate to have seen him in concert for every tour, starting with Dirty Mind up to last year. I not feeling the love fest and sing along with Prince. Especially the cover songs! If I hear him performance "play that funky music," I'm going to lose it!

Sounds like someones got the case of the Mondays!!! lol

Just kidding... I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you change your mind.

Maybe you should... 'take him with you,' (no pun intended) so he wouldn't feel left out.
