Prince announces “three-day international dance party” at Paisley Park To celebrate the Monday release of his new album HITNRUN, Prince has announced a “three-day international dance party” to be held at Paisley Park this coming Friday, Saturday, and Sunday—September 4-6. The party is billed as “presented by Tidal,” the streaming service where the album will exclusively premiere. On each of the three nights, the doors of the Chanhassen music mecca will open at 9:30; for a cover charge of $40, attendees will enjoy “food & beverage” (hopefully pancakes), “live music” (hopefully Prince), tunes spun by the aptly-named DJ Kiss, and “advance listening” – presumably to the new album, which debuts Monday exclusively on Tidal. A tweet announcing the party also linked to a newly-published Medium profile of producer-performer Joshua Welton—Prince’s close collaborator on the new album, as well as a keyboardist in his band and the husband of 3RDEYEGIRL drummer Hannah Welton. Writer Smokey D. Fontaine visited Paisley Park to speak with both Welton and Prince, and the article is full of behind-the-scenes information about the making of the album and the general state of the purple union. “Jay Z and I did a deal in 90 days,” says Prince about his relationship with Tidal and its principal owner. “He gets it.”

Hmmm...my sweetie is going to Dallas for the Wisconsin/Alabama game this weekend. Maybe... We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Thanks - although there is no actual performance announcement, there is a thread to discuss in the Concerts forum, so we will take it forward there for the time being. ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. |
