I AM HOPING HE ANNOUNCES SOME OTHER EUROPEAN DATES. I HAVE SEEN HIM AT BERCY IN PARIS ON THE DIAMONDS AND PEARLS TOUR AND THE SHOW WAS WAY BETTER THAN IN THE U.K. THE RUMOURED DAT FOR PARS IS 29th JUNE? ANYONE SHED ANY MORE LIGHT ON THE SUBJECT?

AND THAT MEANS THAT ANY SHOW IN PARIS IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE BETTER THAN IN THE UK?...AND STOP SHOUTING

ooops

Nothing confirmed yet but Dublin - hopefully Aarhus, Paris and Milan to follow. Maybe Rotterdam too? As long as it's not 1st week of June - my employer doesn't allow us to take days off in that week. Sick leave might be an option

If it's only `big stadium` kinda gigs I don't really need many more gigs.

The situation will ensure that mainly 'hit' material will be performed; also the experience will be less than e.g. at the O2 or any other small to medium sized hall (starting at e.g. the Konig Pilsener Arena, Vorst Nationaal or the Ahoy).
In fact it would be like going about 18 years back in time, to 1990.
Then he did the Nude tour this way, in stadiums.

Why switch back from the stage-in-the-middle to the clasic stage setup?
Just to maximise profit?

Think so, I am under the impression that Prince has more fun playing small gigs. Last summer aftershows proved that imo. But if you need money, of course you will have to play large stadiums. On the other hand: if he wants to make a lot of money, there should be more gigs over europe. So, in the end, we just wait and see what happens.

would love Rotterdam
For now I have the Dublin tickets and I'm thrilled. But I would like to make this a Princy summer (and go to see him in Paris and Rotterdam). I won't go on holiday this year, so I can spend my money on what I love the most. Funky music, people, dancing...

I'm still chasing for 1 Gold Circle ticket - might be lucky in time. I got my 3121 tickets last year 3 weeks before the concert, was super. Although I don't like his attitude towards his fans at the moment....I love the music and the swing

agree with you on that one
