While we all know he's capable of cancelling it's difficult to believe he will this time.
Would be nice to hear some sort of confirmation from the man himself though.....  | |

tonia said: I think the gigs haven't sold out yet because we're not talking about the most exotic places in the world here: Arras, Werchter and Roskilde.
I think most people have never even heard of these towns! Plus the fact that they're outdoors, two of them in a field might not be very attractive for a lot of people. If they had announced three gigs in Milan, London and Paris - same capacities, it would've sold out in no time.  After Glastonbury Roskilde is the biggest music festival in Northern Europe - and just like Glastonbury it celebrates its 40th anniversary this year. 25,000 volunteers & 112,000 visitors last year, largest stage 60,000 capacity...and it sells out every year. The fact that it is in Roskilde doesn't seem to have been a problem the previous years and somehow I doubt it's going to matter this year... | |

all concerts will take place on a field , so there's no one sitting therefor i reckon it'd be impossible for security to see if anyone's taking pictures (unlike London in 2007 where i saw people being told not to take pictures by security , btw despite that , people still actually managed to film 3 shows though , i don't know how they managed  )[Edited 4/29/10 4:16am] | |

[Edited 4/29/10 4:16am] there were more than 3 complete london 2007 show filmed, and if you include all the cameraphone stuff, probably every show had at least some parts filmed, including the aftershows | |

You guys are really tripping with this P is Sly Stone bullshit. | |

Hi to all,
i participate here not-so-often but if i can provide some help as a french native, i would be happy to do so. First of all, don't be afraid about cancellations: as stated before, those 3 festivals are tied up together and have an impressive list of acts for 2010 already scheduled. Of course, with our little P, we never know what would happen, but be sure that all of this is 100% legit. Arras is a middle-sized town in the north of France, but in the last few years they have gained fame with the "Main Square" festival. The Citadelle (where the show takes place) is surrounded by 17th century buildings and would be a perfect spot for Prince to play. At least for a festival-type show. It seems that ticket sales have been much slower for the Arras show, but now all Gold Circle tickets seem to be sold out (unless some distributors release a few more hundred tickets in the next days or weeks, as the show is only in more than two months). Larry Graham and Mint Condition have been booked somewhere else for the same day, but they eventually turned for Arras. So, again dont worry they will be there. We believe that for people from the UK or Germany, Arras is a very accessible place for a concert. And if you plan to do the Werchter show the next day, it is less than a 2-hour drive from Arras. And last but not least... for the french-speaking people there exist a message board that would help you organize this journey, and find good tips and advices. See u there!

not sure if i witnessed that i must've gone to get a beer

[Edited 4/30/10 10:13am] i hate you cunts at the concerts that clap and shout and singalong, spoiling the fucking bootlegs! you should all be taken outside and shot one by one. they should stick gimp masks with snookerballs on fans before they enter aftershows, and tape their fucking hands together with duct tape so they can't clap | |
