Tickets for Prince's two London gigs, taking place tomorrow at Camden Roundhouse, sold out today within four minutes of going on sale.
Confirmed by the legend's UK PR company on Twitter, both gigs sold out - with 6,500 tickets selling out almost immediately. In typical Prince style, the two gigs (one at 5:30pm, one later on Wednesday at 9:45pm) were announced on Monday evening, ticket went on sale at midday Tuesday and the gigs will be taking place the day after.
Fans lucky enough to snap up tickets quickly took to Twitter to celebrate their purchases:

However, with such in-demand gigs, there were plenty more people unable to secure tickets for the shows - and they were not happy about it...
