Surprise, surprise: Prince to play two intimate late-night shows at the Métropolis in Montreal

Ha! I never get to post new Prince news. A friend just sent this to me and I didn't notice anything on it yet.

Montreal, Monday, June 13, 2011 - What luck-right at the very last minute, the brilliant and unpredictable Prince asked if he could perform two late-night shows during the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal. The Festival had a one-word answer: YES! This incredible performer, last with us 10 years ago, had visited Métropolis and liked the venue. This time, he’s happy to deliver two out-of-the-blue impromptu shows, June 24 and 25 at 11:30 p.m., at the Métropolis. A complete and multi-talented artist, his every concert only enhances his legendary stature. The performances are even more exciting because of the intimacy of the venue: a capacity of 2000, for a performer more accustomed to playing arenas 10 times that size! Better yet, the star has asked us to transform the venue into a massive dance floor for the occasion. Therefore, the parterre will be reserved for dancing, withonly 300 reserved seats in the balcony. Tickets for these surprise concerts go on sale tomorrow at noon.

Interesting, thank you for posting this.

The last time that Prince played the Montreal Jazz Festival, one of the sets was actually an 80 min "jazz" set.

Could be exciting if he does something similar again, especially if someone records the show in a better quality than the one in 2001. lol

You are very lucky, I have praying for years for a better quality recording of that show to surface, the one that circulates is horrible quality.

Are you going to this one if you can get tix?

Haha..I know, it's totally weird.

The posting Prince news part, not the filthy whore part.
