Don't take anything u hear on other websites as anything more than rumor and speculation. We xpect Prince 2 still go over seas and tour all year.

Hi Guyz,

Just reading 1 of the threadz on prince.org which hints that P might not be touring Europe this year, and that the ONA "world" tour is rounding up. Can U confirm whether the rumours are consistent with what U R hearing over there?

As a large proportion of NPGMC memberz are based outside the US, I would hope that in his infinite wisdom P would make special priorities to come visit us, or at the least the European hardcore. It is difficult 4 many 2 not only shed out $100 a year for membership, but 2 have 2 travel thousands of miles and spend hundreds of £'s 2 C the very thing they signed up 4. 1 of the main reasons we all joined was 2 take advantage of the advanced booking service and all the extraz U get (preferred seating, soundcheck,
afterparty etc.).

We're all getting twitchy over here in the UK from reading all the concert reports, and we really need something 2 whet our appetites. The danger is that even some of the hardcore fam-base could start to diminish, and that would B unforgivable.

Here's hoping & praying 4 good news.

Thanks midasg! Now, let the matter rest for now!

I sometimes wonder, if we think of PP as incompetent and stupid then what the hell must they think of US sometimes!

See, I knew he would.

You are sick. Stop this shit !!!

I don't think I've mentioned this before, but at one soundcheck/dialogue session in Atl., he said something like "I think I'd like to play Europe. I haven't been there in a while", or something like that.

Maybe someone else can confirm.

Yes, this was reported in a couple of reviews. Also from other cities, I think.

STRANGE!!!! NPGMC TOLD ME HE WASNT GOING TO TOUR EUROPE THIS YEAR AFTER ALL. ORIGINALLY HE HAD PLANNED TO BUT CHANGED HIS MIND. LOOK AT ALL THE CRAP HE GO TO DO IN THE USA BEFORE HE COULD LEAVE FOR TEH WORLD - NOT GONNA HAPPEN THIS YEAR.

i emailed npg about 4 or 5 months ago and they said there were no plans, then more recently i read here that he was going to tour so i emailed them again and they said they belive he will tour europe, the fact they said 'believed' just shows nothings definate.

Last week they answered my email saying that prince hasn't told them anything about cancelling and they expect him to continue touring.

That looks like a strong confirmation that the worldtour will continue, also to europe. I hope they will make it for july.

Great if he does...but..

6 months to do 2 countries so far

5 months to do the rest of the planet?
