I don't understand French (yet!) but I saw a lot of question marks in that article. Including the title.

The article is just a string of sentences about things Prince “could” do, and what it “would” be like if he did. It looks like nothing but wishful thinking.

No this is more than a rumour. The source is on leparisien.fr but you need to pay to see the full article.

This concert must be organized for UNICEF. It is a free concert. It is a charity concert. The newspaper Le Parisien is very well informed.

They are talking about it everywhere in the media today over here in France : radio stations, papers. It is everything but a rumour.

Prince wants a movie to be made out of it as the concert would happen by the Eiffel Tower.

The authorization has been sent to Paris town hall already (VII arrondissement). Hopefull they will authorize the concert.

Prince has had in mind concerts in exceptional places in Paris and around Paris already for the last 3 years.

You didn't add anything concrete - just more wishful thinking. "Hopefull"..."Prince wants"...

Doesn't sound very definite, to me.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

[Name calling snip - luv4u] I'm telling you that this is not wishful thinking, that the only thing that is missing now is the official authorization. It is bloody fucking concrete. This is not rumour. The article mentionned above is from a crappy cheap website. This is not the real source. The real is here and comes from a very well informed journalist who has proven to be right many time reagrding events in paris:

Yeah right. Your reaction is the reason why ther is a lot more info about Prince on a site like schkopi.com/forum than over here on the org. I am amazed to see that we are always aware of news orgers know shit about and should be aware of.

Nobody has talked yet about the future european gigs this summer yet. That's why Prince is trying to play by the Eiffel Tower. There will be more news in a few weeks time.

Housequake posted about this on facebook....

"Housequake.com

The American singer Prince would perform at the foot of the Eiffel Tower in Paris on 14 July, Le Parisien revealed in its edition of Thursday, May 3. The free concert would be filmed in 3D in order to release a film intended for theaters and whose revenues would be donated to Unicef. The newspaper said a request of this type have been filed with the City of Paris, who has not yet agreed." ..............

prince has had pretty big ambitious ideas in the past.. it dosen't sound so far from the truth to me..

. i don't see how wishful thinking has anything to do with this rumor since it came from a professional paid journalist to be honest.

Prince in 3D. As gimmicky as it sounds...I'd be 'bout it 'bout it. Hope this all pans out. Waiting around for Prince's plans can sometimes be like waiting for a junkie to get clean.

What about a charity concert to refund all the poor souls that got fucked and lost their money when they bought a ticket to the 2010 Switzerland concert instead?

Below the Eiffel Tower would be so romantic!! A very dear friend of mine proposed to his Parisienne Girlfriend in the Jules Verne restaurant a few years ago. He timed it perfectly as he asked her on the hour as the tower started to sparkle! He got a few of his mates to lay out little lit candles on the ground far below spelling out Marry Me? Ahh, no bad for a Scottish lad, ha ha! Anyway I digress, that concert sounds cool!

Believe it when I see it but I'm all for a P concert in 3D!! Throw in some extras, bluray audio of some studio recordings!! DO IT!!! Folks some of the 3d stuff looks good even without the glasses. Bluray/3d and Bluray-audio is in the now. The system I have can upscale regular films to 3d and I got to say! I'm impressed watching "Sign o the Times" upscale 3d. Gimmick?? Nah. Reselling CDS remastered is long past but Prince bluray audio!! 5.1 or 7.1! 3d!! YEAH PURPLE NERDS!!!!!

What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet?
