thanks,thought i needed all those other wires & holes.Bet someone changes the channel! wish my sky+ box worked.

horatio said:

None of the aftershows have had the look of someone who wanted to stop doing this!

Maybe it's because they keep billing it as "Performing his hits for the last time". But then they said that ten years ago at Wembley too. Actually, I'd be fine with it if this turned out to be true! Time to focus more on where he's going, not where he's been.

Although I've loved hearing the old non-hits e.g. All The Critics...

Oh yeah, yay for Sky. Must set the Sky+ now before I forget.

Thats what I think

I guess he´ll play Purple Rain and Guitar or 1999 and Guitar

lbanks - you can use all those other cables if you plan to keep it connected, but the way i have said is the easiest if you dont. Check it before hand tho, its been a while since ive used a video with sky.

Nightcrawler said:

I really hope he does not open with Purple Rain - I love it towards the end of a show as it has more of a shiver down the spine effect....

I seem to remember that he was going to hang up his guitar after the symbol album... if you listen to the lyrics on the album, there is alot of reference to this.

I guess after the (commercial) success of D&P he wanted to go out on a high... however I would assume two things,

1. that despite the symbol album being a generally commercial success i don't think that it was as well received as Prince would have liked. I seem to remember one of the NPG stating that they were disappointed with the response and hoped that one day it should be regarded as a classic album.

I also guess that this spurned him on to write the storming 'Gold' Album!!

2. I think that Prince just cannot help writing and performing, it's in his blood...

s**t s**t !"£$%^&*()__++_++)(IPIOKJLJBGFR%T^UI. i have cable..

So 8:30pm London time is what Pacific time?

Better be in our seats nice and early tomorrow then!

morningsong said:

I got 8 hour time difference. So that'll be 12:30pm Pacific, hope you all enjoy it.

Excellent news!

My bloody DVD recorder is having major issues though. I'll have to try and get it fixed before tomorrow night.

they will do a little feature first...then they'll show the concert ( 2 tracks).
I assume the live coverage starts at 9 pm.

I assume he's doing this for good buisness and will only perform 2 new songs to promote the Planet Earth album.
Just when I thought tommorrow night couldnt get anymore exciting!!

Perhaps (and this is complete speculation) he's done a deal with Sky to show the whole gig later in the year? After it's been edited and approved.

Sky One have from time to time had concert exclusives.

Or maybe we'll just get a DVD. Or both?

Or nothing!

Mighta bin said by chomama but it SHO ain't bin said by no Prince.

So how will people get hold of it when the tour is over then? Anyway you can buy it on Play.com!

If the songs are going to be broadcast worldwide after Sky get their exclusive then PE songs could serve a purpose.

BALDERDASH!

yeahhhh just got freeview..... i will hold me glow stick..

aymiderham said:

that's possibly what he meant by 'the summer that changed everything' comment...plus there's the gig in moscow rumour/truth?

cloudguitar said:

Exactly, the summer that changed everything when he said that I thought 'hmmm maybe hes had a re-think about something'

Fasten seatbelts y'all. The NPG have just taken control.

aymiderham said:

urm... just realised.. i dont have sky news lol.. so i can watch it on the website right?

Any TV station can re-show them after the Sky broadcast. He cut an exclusive deal with Sky for the live broadcast but is releasing the rights to the clips after that for library footage . Expect to see the clips a LOT!!
