Prince in the Hamptons this Summer?

http://www.eurweb.com/sto...r33684.cfm

Prince has been mentioned among a number of artists scheduled to perform at a series of charity events in East Hampton, NY this summer. According to NME, the events are scheduled to take place in July and August and will be held by The Ross School to benefit its scholarship fund. Also on board for the Hamptons concerts are Tom Petty, Billy Joel, James Taylor and Dave Matthews. However, the events have yet to be granted a mass gathering permit needed to move forward, reports NME. Unconfirmed reports are estimating that a ticket to gain access to all five events will cost around $15,000.

$15,000? Do you get Prince's new CD for free?

He might as well work as hard as he can now, after all hes got no wife and kids at the moment, I reckon he's keeping so busy, partly because of that reason.

Prince did a charity performance while in London, at a dinner for city bigwigs, it raised $53 million, didn't see it get reported on the Org at all but I may be wrong. I expect the ticket prices for this were even more than the Hampton's thing!:

I saw this in the Wall Street Journal. They had a picture of Prince and the article was headlined "Prince: For a King's Ransom"

this was already a thread....http://www.prince.org/msg/7/228018?&pg=1

Ask where they're going, they'll tell U – "Nowhere"
They've taken a lifetime lease on Paisley Park ...

25 acts you must see this summer


With the ever-expanding festival season about to kick off, OMM writers pick the bands you can't afford to miss in fields, in stadiums or at sweaty clubs across Britain - while some of the top stars tell us just what we can expect from them

1. Prince
He breezed into London this month to announce an unprecedented 21 gigs in the capital this August - oh, and every ticket would cost £31.21, a reference to the title of his last album, for which you'll also receive a copy of his forthcoming studio opus. Four words: bargain; of; a; lifetime.

Just in case anyone was in any doubt, two days after the press conference (where he amused, once more, by talking about his Bible studies), Prince staged a surprise gig at Koko in Camden. He played for almost two hours with his absurdly slick band, throwing in classics like 'Kiss' (with the line about watching Dynasty updated to reference Desperate Housewives) and 'U Got the Look' alongside covers of Sly and the Family Stone, Amy Winehouse (with talk of a future duet on stage) and Gnarls Barkley. Guitar pyrotechnics, flamboyant dance moves, slapstick comedy - the only thing the 48-year-old 5ft 2in genius failed to get right was a stage dive. At the end, he came back on stage to announce that the August shows will be the best you'll ever see. Best believe him.
