OT: Prince at the O2 - Ticketmaster ticket drop £31.21 lower tiers
Posted by: paulywaul ()

Sunday 15th July about 13:00, I just bought 3 for 10th August in block 111 row Y (not TOO bad) for the £31.21 price. These haven't been available for a good while now; they certainly didn't seem to be available at this price when tickets first came on sale - whenever that was ? I also checked availability for the 17th, there's availability on that date too in roughly the same location within the arena, block 111.

For some of the nights rows J and K in Block 111 have dropped, brilliant seats. I'm going Friday 24th August and then to the gig next door at the Indigo. Should be a great week!

Yes, me too. The three tix I bought for the 10th are for cousins flying in from out of town, they should be delighted.

as a matter of interest, I've just been idling away here over the last hour or so looking at availability of these £31.21 tickets in the lower tiers for various dates, practically every date for which I've done a search has come up with them. I mean ... row H in block 102 for the 28th August for example, that ain't a bad seat for the price !!

When the sales of Prince tickets first started, I remember the total and utter uproar on this board, because nobody was being offered anything at all. Now, several weeks later, 'ere they all are !!

I don't know whether it's the artists themselves that have a say in how their tickets are sold, or whether it's the promoters, or Ticketmaster, but there's definitely a pattern of some sort beginning to emerge. They're pretty much sold out of everything you bloody well want about 2 nanoseconds past the time the sales start, yet lo and behold if you check back what might be weeks later ... you might just find you get what you need !! Totally bizarre, at least I think it's bizarre anyway.

Paul ya diamond, coz of your tip-off I was able to score fabulous Block 102 tickets for the Saturday shows on 11th and 18th August, to add to my already booked 25th August show.

Is Prince supposed to be performing at the After Show 'parties'?

Well, his name is listed on the ticketmaster blurb for it, so it would be a bit of a con if he didnt.

general consensus seems to be his band will play and he'll get up and play some songs with them. maybe a bit more jamming and less singing than you'd get at the 'regular' shows, and the amount of time he's onstage could vary greatly.

Anyone else going on the Friday (24th) to either or both shows?

Bought two tix for the 31.08 BK 112 lower tier, just a few days ago. And after that on to the indigo for the aftershow party. Graet deal for 31,21 and 25 pounds for the aftershow!

Well done to you David. I'm going on the 24th, and of the three tickets I bought yesterday for the 10th, they're actually for my cousins ... it's possible that either me or the Mrs will ernd up using one of those three if their child doesn't want to go. I'm extremely unfamiliar with Prince's stuff, so I'm looking forward to the education ... and in fact if I'm "blown away" I might just look at further attending one of the shows running into September, if these £31.21 tickets are still available at that time of course.

<<< the Saturday shows on 11th and 18th August, to add to my already booked 25th August show >>>

Three consecutive Saturdays ... not bad SD ! But what are you going to do on the 4th Saturday ? Down the pub, the movies, hot date ... ????
