having last seen Prince in O2 London in 2007, I am now sure how the band has evolved since then. would someone please recap of the current band setup and who are the best band members. I loved Marva King and Shelby in London...Thx

- John Blackwell - drums

- Ida Neilsen - bass

- Morris Hayes & Cassandra O'Neil - keys

- Shelby & Liv (Elisa is taking off for the summer and rejoining them when they return to the US)

and Maceo (I assume he's gonna be with him thru the summer, but its just an assumption)

Plus: guitarist and singer Andy Allo

+ renato

Maceo has a few dates on his own. have not looked to deep in it as to see if it conflicts with Prince his dates

Maceo Parker plays dates in the US until July 4th, then in Europe he has his own concerts on Prince dates 15, 28, 30 July & Aug 6. And I don't think Renato Neto will be there since there are already two keyboard players.

You might be right about Renato. He was also missing on the French gig last Monday. I'm a total fan of his playing...

Renato was not in MTL

He was there in the 2010-shows along with Cassandra and Mr. Hayes, as well as with the W2A shows, so that doesn't say much.

But as he was not in the French TV show I guess he won't be at the concerts, which to me is a pity.

Maceo was at the soundcheck for the Paris concert.

Where's Renato?!?

Chill with the Renato nonsense.......he got the Hayes!

I have hopes for some special guests at NSJ as well. Plenty of artists there that played with P already. I hope for some horn section, it fits so well to Prince´s music.
