I would have to disagree. With a stage so elaborate, light show, movement, and everything being spread out, different vantage points are just as good, maybe even better.

Looking at Prince from far away or having him staring at you? Which to choose, which to choose?? lol.... I choose the man lookin' at me up close!

I go to a show to enjoy a show, not to obsess over someone. There's a reason that PART of the show is called a "light show." There's a reason that the stage is huge. There's a reason that some performances are in arenas and some are at small night clubs. Maybe you didn't get the memos. Carry on....

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!??!!?!? I was able to log in and get tickets for April 14....then log in and get tickets for April 21......then log in and get more tickets. It was pretty easy to me.

I was at work... It's working but now I can't go until a later date... well damn

Oh....well there's 18 more after these (unless there's an in-between), so I'm sure you'll get to enjoy yourself with some more Welcome2America soon enough. Keep me posted if you have other technical issues per tickets.

I'm going!

I cannot believe it. I leave tomorrow for a 16 hour road trip to see Prince in concert (Denver to LA), for my very first time, on Thurday. And, my husband didn't kill me when I called him at 4pm today and told him.

For anyone who is going, please knwo that I am interested in buying your used concert ticket(s) after the show !!!

HAVE F U N

Once you get vip tickets, there are no other tickets... lol!! There is nothing in the world like being 4 feet away from Prince looking at you face to face!!

Couldnt of said it better myself! I live in Vegas and Ive been lucky enough to be upfront a number of times.... When he makes eye contact with you it feels so deep and personal...Ill pay over and over time and time again to see him. I think Im a bit spoiled now.. I have to have the energy of upfront and in yo face! no matter the price... Each time Ive brought someone that wasnt a Prince "fan" and after the concerts ...well they were transformed... c ya at the show... waiting for future dates. .....

From The L.A. Times this morning.

Prince keeps things affordable at the Forum at $25, but how close does that get you?

Why George Lopez and not his old freind Jay Leno??

I was asking myself the same. It's probably because Prince is last minute and Leno didn't want to bump his already-scheduled music guests this week. He probably did go to him first and then to Lopez.

I would love to fly out to LA and take in at least a couple of the shows. However, it's not in the budget.. I haven't been to Cali since I was a kid. Maybe he'll do 21 nights in Detroit or Chicago.

This is so exciting! With those prices, how can anyone not go? I was a bit hesitant on going since I just got back from seeing him in NC, but when I saw the ticket prices, I knew I just had to go. So here's to saving the rest of April and hope for 3-4 dates close together at the end of May! I want to go see him sooooo bad in Cali, never been there! C'mon Prince, do me justice and give me 3-4 dates in a week span after mid-May and I'm there, at all of them! Maybe even more if there are 7-8 dates in a 2 week span. A vacation to Cali is right up my alley!! Enjoy folks that are going to these first 3 shows. I heard the website crashed a couple minutes after sales opened up! Oh and if anyone wants to plan a road trip for some May shows...let me know. I'd love to do that!

i need to live in america its sucks living in britain :'( xcxxx i need prince xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Math is all.

Assume 20.000 places.

80% goes for $25 all-in. This gives us $200,000

That leaves 4000 places to earn the money.

P asks around 1.5M USD for a show, depending on location, situation etc.

We are looking for 1.5 - 0.2M makes 1.3M USD.

1.3M divided by 4000 makes $325. So it can actually work in this simple example that excludes cost for the venue, etc.

thank you for your honest opinion. and that is what it is, thank you... I was not putting your "opinion" down or being nasty. You like being out in the open, I like being up close.... no one is right or wrong. No need for nastiness... my God.

I'm really surprised at how excited I am for tonight. Feels like the start of a new "era." Haven't been excited about something Prince-related since 2009.

Sheila E. is joining on the George Lopez show tonight.

Maybe they´re performing ´A Love Bizarre´ in that case?

Thanks for the update! Having Sheila E there makes perfect sense and will be a nice live treat!

I doubt they'll play A love Bizzare - I'm hoping for some NEW music!!!!

What time does Lopez tonight actually tape the show? Early afternoon is what I'm thinking so hopefully we will get some updates from those folks attending the show.

Anyone know if Lopez Tonight is streamed on the net?

George Lopez only has Rosario Dawson & Prince as guests.... could there be several performances or maybe an interview?

(note that I'm not familiar with the show, but mostly George has 3 guests every evening)

Oh lord, please, NO interview. As musch as I adore every TV performance over the years, I sorta cringe at Prince's couch chat.
