American Prince Tours(not dates)/ why I like to hear old stuff at his Concerts

Can someone please list the names of all of Prince's tours from past to present. Also I would like someone to clear something up for me. Was there really a "Parade" tour, or did Prince just play a couple of Parade dates. I remember reading about performances in New York and L.A. but I don't remember at tour that included places like Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Miami, St.Louis etc. To slightly touch upon the subject of Prince's loss of appeal to the masses, I just thought about something.

AS A WHOLE America never got a chance to hear songs live from Around the World in a Day, Parade, Sign of the Times, Graffiti Bridge, Diamonds and Pearls, The Symbol Album, Batman,etc. AS A WHOLE, we never got a chance to see Mayte dance, hear Rosie sing, nor see the Gang Boys Dance. We never got to hear Michael B., Sonny T, or Tommy B. play. There are a lot of people that don't like Prince to play old stuff, but MOST Americans have never heard it live. I would love to hear, Paisley Park, Condition of the Heart, Do You lie, Mountains, Pop Life, Play in the Sunshine, Lemon Crush, 7, Hot Thang, Forever in My life, Elephants and Flowers, New Power Generation, Willing and Able, 319, Blue Light, Sweet Baby, Continental, Eye Hate you, Pink Cashmere, etc. ALL AMERICANS don't live in NYC, LA, or Minneapolis. Yes, I will admit, I don't have to hear Raspberry Beret and Purple Rain anymore but I would love to hear the others. When I really think about it, to be such a Prince Fam, I missed out on a lot of live music (I missed the Lovesexy Tour due to circumstances beyond my control. I missed my one and only chance to see Cat dance live. A lot of people missed that tour). Although I went to the Purple Rain tour, a lot of us missed the HUGE stage shows Prince has been known to put on. I would have loved to seen that stage that was set inside of the Symbol Albums CD case, or the roller skaters, etc. on the Diamonds and Pearls tour. One Night alone was the first time I had seen Prince with Horns (besides Eric Leeds) and it was great. Yeah....., Nashville, Kansas City, Dallas, Houston, Memphis, Atlanta, Charlotte, San Antonio, Denver, New Orleans, Phoenix, St.Louis, etc., has missed out on a lot of live music from Prince over the years. I think that's why I don't tire of a lot of the old stuff in concert because most of us haven't heard it.Does ANYONE out there feel me?
I am convinced Beyonce's career would not be where it is, if she had dark skin.
