Question re: Sat Night Live Performance

At least where I live, for TODAY ONLY, on my Comcast xfinity On Demand I can watch the tribute Saturday Night Live did for Prince the weekend of his passing.
They are taking it down tomorrow.
FYI

All of his appearances on SNL are here! It's so wonderful to watch him through the years. He was just perfect and I love all stages of his musical journey.

Anyway, during one appearance which I think was right before 3121 came out, he's
singing "Beautiful, Loved and Blessed". Near the end of the song he speaks some numbers and dates.

He says "3121" (the name of the album, obviously), then "March 21" (I believe that was the date of the album release) - but it's another number I'm wondering about. He then says, "beautiful, loved and blessed...May 2nd".

What is May 2nd?

That was the tentative date for when Tamar's scrapped album was scheduled to be released.

I think most of the clips are still on youtube. In fact, it doesn't look like any of his stuff is being taken off youtube anymore. Maybe the lawyers gave up?

"Maybe the lawyers gave up?"..........From your lips to God's ears. I have seen a few things blocked but not much...It seems more and more footage and music is being put up every day.

SNL/NBC used to be hardcore about having stuff taken down. So don't be surprised if it disappears. They might release it on DVD, if they can get permission from those in charge.

.

I imagine most of us have already burned it to DVD.

There's no one to sign the checks so they probably just quit.
Surprise, surprise.
Another treat. Another trick.

May first's plus one.

That whole SNL show is still on my DVR, and I downloaded it via torrents to put on my cloud here at the house.
