If Prince didn't go last year, Prince is less likely to go. I don't even think he'll show up to the Carnegie Hall tribute.

I'm sure he won't go. His reputation for being a nice person is far from stellar.

Road trip!!!

Who says he is not a nice person? Give me some names and after 33 some odd years in a cutthroat business, he deserves the right to have enemies... How many people think you are nice? Stop with the conjecture

*DEAD*

Yall will see me there acting a fool just like last time...doing splits, sweating, dropping a drank and having a BALL

Presale tickets went on sale today. Public tickets go on sale tomorrow! I got mine!! Looks like I'm going back up to Minneapolis in March!

Got mine!!!!

"He's coming, I swear he's coming, don't take my word 4 it, look over there..."

Knowing that Prince was/is a huge Minnie Riperton fan..he may show..Maya Rudolph is her daughter U know..

Rather he shows or not..keep in mind it's 4 a great cause. His showing would only add 2 the show tho..hint..hint..

According to the carnegie hall Prince tribute list, Wendy will be at the carnegie hall show on 3/7 with her sister Suzannah, along with Eric Leeds. I believe they will be part of the Roots' house band that night.

I have a few questions if anybody has information:

1) Will there be another party Friday night? I believe last year's was the international party.

2) Will there be a dance party after the actual concert again with a reduced ticket price?

3) Anybody know of a hotel spot where others are congregating again?

Yes..that bill is correct..and that date is 2days prior..We can tell U this..THERE WILL BE CELEBRITY GUESTS IN THE HOUSE ON THE 9th..of March at First Avenue!! Peace.....
