He just did 21 nights in London not too long ago and a stint in Vegas before that. Plus, with 350,000 thousand copies of lotusflow3r in his first month (not including website sales), I would imagine he has less financial incentive to tour. Albeit, he does seem to be warming his band up. I know folks say he's not promoting lotusflow3r enough, but the guy's been on Leno 4 times since it was released, and made numerous public appearances in the cesspool of culture, L.A. I think he's doing plenty to promote it. He just lacks a major label to do the rest. Yeah, I agree. Maybe the frequent band change is a 'last goodbye'?!  | |

That's the best news I've heard in a really long time! Maybe now we can get some people that sound like they have some Soul. The band also needs to have some choreography going on when performing. Everybody's just standing still looking bored, Prince included! It's like now his shows are just for listening. There's nothing to see, no dance moves, no funny/sexy facial expressions. Just his boring suits. I could go blind and get as much outta his live shows as the next man. That's part of his legend/legacy as a live performer. The music was always bangin', but he knew how to put on a SHOW! The Revolution and SOTT/Lovesexy bands did some very basic choreography, nothing fancy, and it made the show sizzle. It made the music seem to have that extra umph of energy. And, I ain't talking about adding some twins and shit to the foray (who were very annoying), but have him and the actual band move a tad. | |

As the musicianship of the bandmembers goes up, the live performances go down. The revolution was the best. | |
