Think Prince's tour schedule couldn't look — or smell — any weirder? The artist, who has lined up unconventional residencies in London and Los Angeles for later this year, will hype his new 3121 perfume line with a July 7 gig at 4 p.m. on the eighth floor of Macy's in downtown Minneapolis, according to the city's Star Tribune newspaper. Seats to the show will be sold in "Ultimate Prince Xperience" packages, which will run $250 apiece but also feature a ticket to his show at Target Center later that night, as well as two special-edition bottles of his "Eau de Parfum." Prince's new scent for women goes on sale the same day. ...

I'm a little weirded out about it myself. Seeing Prince in the same room I've been to all the Dayton's Xmas displays since I was a little girl.

But I'm there!

I wonder if I can exchange a bottle of the god-awful "Get Wild" perfume for a bottle of the new stuff.

that's like the time i went to the 7-11 and tried to exchange a bottle of boones farm for some thunderbird.

Maybe he'll perform on one of those little animatronic stages.

Prince doing women's perfume...that's really gay!

squirrelgrease said:

that would mean he'd be performing "baby i'm a star" or "let's go crazy" since those have been robot-like for years now.

i work right downtown near Macy's... i can't imagine HOW on earth this little department store will handle this kiind of sale. people will be lining up the night before, there are probably - what? 200 packages available??? can you imagine the mess this sale will be???

i'd love to go but i really, REALLY don't want to face that mess...

speaking of macy's, i'm surprised it's not nordstrom's instead since that's where he's been known to shop...

I wonder if he'll be performing at the Weenie King with Udon, Fay and Zerg.

Tell me about it.

Once you break the seal on the Boone's Farm, it doesn't matter whether you sip any. 7-11 won't let you make the exchange and upgrade to Thunderbird, even if you lie and say you spent all day in the heat panhandling the 79-cent difference.

Bastards.

it's like i said to the guy at the counter, "i guess i can't have ANYTHING nice."

and he just put down his copy of maxim and said "well i guess you can't, get out of my store."

and i grabbed a slim jim and walked out without paying for it. showed them.

i hope prince does "tambourine".

MikeMatronik said:

OH - is it a perfume or a cologne? He should do one for men because there are so many and the competition is a lot harder for women. Get with Diddy...his stuff went number 1.

They showed the 8th floor last night on the news and it was HUGE...

I'd go if I lived closer

prime said:

It is big, and I believe I read there will be 1400 tickets...

this sooo sucks for me. i couldnt go to the 5/19 even though i am a cardholder, and now can't go to this one. my office is moving after 15 years in the same location the first week in july, and no one is allowed vacation for the first two weeks of july.....argh!

Sounds like it's ~cough~ time for someone ~cough~ to plan to catch a ~cough~ summer cold or something in early July.

it's just so bizarre! but cool for those who get to go I hope it smells good

CalhounSq said:

i'm not so sure i like the idea of a coupla thousand fammyfams running around the target center with bottles of perfume. too much fragrance makes me severely ill.

I wanna go so bad, it hurts!

Anxiety said:

OMG, & you KNOW they're gonna be drenched in that shit too

Oh my gawd. That's so weird. I so wish I could go.

You! Another reason I wish I could go.

I gots no $$.

But if I trip over a bag of Benjamins on the street or something, I'm there.

Thats what I was thinking. I can't stand to go shopping, and this sounds like shopping with a show involved.

I think I'm going to stick with the regular concert for now.

Man, with the mix of being at Macy's, and having Prince performing, the ladies are going to be fainting up in there from sensory overload!




I can feel the perfume induced migrane headache coming on just thinking about it.

Anxiety said:

i don't know where you live, but all of the employees combined at the 7-11 across the street from where i live don't know that much engrish.

Trust me, Prince knows what fragrence smells great on a woman. I will trust a man's opinion on clothing, hair, & make-up before I would trust a woman.
