Somebody in the tv business told me it is 95% sure that Prince will be jumping on stage with Stevie Wonder this coming Sunday. I will buy a ticket - and hope he's coming

It'll be worth it with or without Prince...

Decisions Decisions!

Saturday Werchter, Sunday Rotterdam / Monday 8am at work. But it will be worth it indeed!

We're leaving on holiday on sunday, about a 10 hrs drive south. So you can imagine, for once, I wouldn't mind no aftershow...

See you in Werchter anyway!

Ooh, tough one!
Sunday tickets are going really cheap now that NL is in the World Cup final.

You might see him play in Nice then?

Werchter might be what Dortmond was in 1988 - filled with Dutchies!

As if that will be a good thing.

I do hope they enforce the vuvuzela ban and perhaps also ban any orange colored objects.

And it seems tickets for North Sea Jazz on Sunday are currently beeing sold for half the price at marktplaats.nl - it collides with the Socces World Cup Final.

During Rock Werchter anything 'football' was prohibited, including the damned vuvuzela so I think we're safe.. As for orange in general.......

I bought tickets for NSJ for upcomming friday a few weeks ago because at first the line up was:

Norah Jones

Marcus Miller

EWF

Larry G.

So I was kinda hoping that Prince would do an after concert at the NSJ.

Well...not. NSJ had / have skipped Larry so now it's :

"New York State of Mind" The Metropole Orchestra conducted by Vince Mendoza with special guests

Norah Jones

Marcus Miller

EWF

Oh well

I still look forward going.

Haha.

And how long will he be jumping on stage?

And why would he repeat the Paris thingie?

I mean: it is nice, yes, if he would appear.

But how much Prince would we see?

BTW:

Who's that somebody and what's his source?

Is his name Larry? Or Bria?

Yes but that wasn't known at the time I was hoping for the line up at NSJ

I never thought I would be pissed abt him not showing up

But. Reading the list of songs he played in Denmark, I am kinda glad I am going to the NSJ instead of Prince.

I have heared 'Purple Rain' abt 26 times life by now so.

Only 26.

You're at the show for the other songs.

You could fetch us and yourself a few beers during P.R.

Too bad for you that you stay in the Netherlands.

awww

how little do you know.

and what's that silly comment abt only 26?

what are you, 13 or something?

at least I do not act like a bitter P fan, just making choices for myself

How many times did you hear Purple Rain?

If you really mean 26 then something is wrong. Really.

Nothing childish, only factual here.

And do not start about restricting this to concerts as I stated the quality/quantity thing right now.

By guessing me at 13 you project an image that says abit more about you. You care about silly numbers. Easy comparisons. You get satisfaction from those.

I am not bitter.

I am trying to make decisions in a slightly wise manner, depending on factors and how much I know about them.

Do you really want me to react serious to your comment? Silly moi

You do not know me and I should have known better to comment on here

Cross-post from the Austria thread.

According to that article Prince is already in Austria.

But rumours are really persistant that Prince will show up at NSJ tonight...

We'll see!

Thanks for that! It is just a rumour, possibly because he played with Stevie in France last week. It would make sense to fly to Austria in preparation. So yeah, we'll just have to see and keep checking Dr. Funkenberry. And now, will it be Spain or Holland ?

i am at the festival, at 21.15 cet, the nsj staff mentioned it is not confirmed nor denied, if its going to happen they will keep it a surprise. about the same statement they could or did make the last ten years, but maybe there is a bit more hope

this year.

P spotted at NSJ!

Twitter:

jochemgeerdink
Krijg net sms dat Prince is gespot in Ahoy. Zou ie meedoen met Stevie Wonder?

Yeah it's being re-tweeted a lot! https://twitter.com/#sear...ince%20nsj

And Holland are now down to 10 men!!!!!!!!!! Argggg

Dr F. is quiet, so is NL, congrats Spain, they deserved it.

Sharon Jones at NSJ was great. Will they televise P and SW. Is he really there??

What is the itinary?

[Edited 7/11/10 14:48pm]

Final radio song and message from Stevie Wonder on Radio 6 at NSJ...No Prince wasn't there. At one moment, Stevie started playing a Spanish number and they thought, that was the moment for Prince's entree. ie."Poor Holland you lost to Spain but don't worry, we have Prince here for you. But no such luck. Stevie was mean to play that number! Still, I'm glad I didn't miss Prince in R'dam.

he is already in vienna since this afternoon - so he can't play that

but will do a club -gig in vienna tomorrow
