Out of interest, how did fans get tickets for the Welcome 2 America tours? How did they get to the aftershows etc without NPGMC access. Is it just first in, first served like the old days?

Updated article regarding tour announcement

http://musicfeeds.com.au/...t-pending/

Michael Chugg is set to announce a tour by Prince. He still plays the greatest hits tour and it’s an amazing show by all accounts…there were a couple of promoters from Melbourne who were in the mix as well; they dropped out last week.

Thanks for the update!

This makes me sad, as I wonder if they were trying to do something extra in Melbourne sad

But then, hopefully the delay in announcing is because they're still working on the 'extras' biggrin

In any case, I'm now signed up to the Chugg Entertainment newsletter just in case...

A mad scramble at one in the morning on the Internet to get tickets. That was for the Vancouver after show. I could not get into Victoria. In Vancouver, I did see some woman making out with the bouncer, if that helps any.

I really wish they'd just announce something!

Is there no hint at all as to which month he'll be visiting?!?

I'm so tempted to start a complain that he's not coming over to Holland.

However, most people probably will not understand it's a joke and have a go at me.

But still.

Why not a nice night in the Paradiso? That must be possible, between Poland and Australia!

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

A residency at the Ziggo dome?

If this gets confirmed, how about releasing the fan's top 20 hits list but just the Australian and NZ data. Who knows. Maybe it would get back to the man himself. That's valuable market research for planning a tour If you want to throw the hardcore a few bones.

Well it's the next week & still no announcement. It would be a cruel joke to play on us if this was all a hoax.

The chucklehead who leaked the news jumped the gun. There are probably negotiations happening which could go either way. That's my groundless assumption anyway. I'd now give it 50/50.

Argh, let's hope it's more than a 50/50 chance!

as of this morning on triple m, Nui still insists that it is a sure thing and it will b announced this week, 4 a may tour................

until i hear an official announcement, then i know it will happen.

there r rumours every year about Aus tours that never eventuate, although this 1 has been very strong and public...

Hmm, even though it's nice to have some information on this front, I would rather Nui kept quiet on this one. History has shown Prince tour announcements where promoters, media, etc have jumped the gun, can sometimes 'spook' Prince, and he pulls out. Nui's remarks influenced the twitter post and Dr Funkenberry announcements trying to put the cat back into the bag. Nui has made his "statement" regarding this tour many times over, I think it's best for everyone involved if he says nothing more until an official announcement is made by either Prince or the promoters

Hmmm...well, either Showbiz has just jumped the gun as well, or they know something definite...

They've made it their facebook cover photo, so if they've got it wrong, they're going to look beyond sheepish.

According to an email I just received from them, there will be May dates for Allphones Arena (Sydney), Rod Laver Arena (Melbourne) and Entertainment Centre (Brisbane) announced soon.

I've heard so many rumours now, I don't know what to think, but one thing's for sure - I'm on that waitlist wink

Cool. I thought Rod Laver had great sound in 03, better than Sydney E.C but the location of the allphones might be the decider to go back to Melbourne.
