3 Nights, 3 Shows, He's back!

Jamais deux sans trois. En 2007, Prince était venu au Montreux Jazz Festival pour un concert. En 2009, il s'était produit deux fois dans la même soirée. Il revient pour la troisième fois pour donner trois concerts répartis sur trois soirées, les 13, 14 et 15 juillet 2013 à l'Auditorium Stravinski. Montreux ne donne aucun détail sur le programme, notant juste que Prince est le maître incontesté de l'improvisation et qu'il «fait de chacun de ses concerts des performances uniques et imprévisibles». La star a mis en ligne son nouveau single, «Screw Driver», il y a quelques semaines. Un nouvel album devrait sortir dans le courant de l'année sur Purple Music, un label de house suisse créé par le DJ Jamie Lewis. Le précédent effort de Prince remonte à deux ans. La billetterie ouvre le vendredi 15 février dès 10 h sur www.montreuxjazz.com. Prix des places: 175 fr. (debout) et 395 fr. (assis). La suite de la programmation du 47e Montreux Jazz Festival sera annoncée le 18 avril prochain. (Le Matin) | |

hmmmm depends on the band. 140€ is not cheap + it's an 800km drive. Do you guys think it will be with gouche and ronald bruner or with the girls? | |

Reminds me of North Sea Jazz, when he played 3 evenings in a row.
I was so happy that weekend. Good memories. 99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%. | |

Yes. Santana is going to be at NSJF.
Well, can't get me tickets for either one of the festivals.
My dad got me a lottery ticket; maybe I'll get lucky 99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%. | |

Don't know about the ticket sales, but sure is a long time since we've had this much notice for a show.
As stated by the man himself the setlist depends on where you're playing, if he's doing arenas he can only sell tickets doing greatest hits show. I think that you'll agree that Montreux is for serious music lovers, and most probably only hardcore Prince fans will be there(not that there is any relation between the two
I dont live in Minneapolis, so the only thing I've heard heard the girls play is Screwdriver live. I take it the girl who cant play drums is Hannah, do tell?
I will try for tickets, if it's not to be I'll be on a beach somewhere on that weekend.

Exactly, one night during NSJF he did not play the lay crowd pleasing hits, and he got so much respect from the audiance!
I'm contemplating to get my credit card out and get me the tickets.
But, I fear, because I also know that I can't afford it at the moment. On the other hand, I do rely on the Universe oftentimes and never was wrong when I did.....

Cheapest ones are 175,-, so, tickets for him would be 525,- in total.
And than tickets for the festival, travelling to Montreux, travelilling around, food, accommodation...
Would be a wonderfull holiday to go to the festival and see Prince. But I just don't have money.
For those who can afford it: What more can you ask for than a great music festival in beautiful surroundings and wonderful weather.
So, yes if one has the money, Go there!

Technology might have evolved since 2009. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Yes that is the gamble. I mean: for the price of going to Montreux you might see 5 or more 'normal' shows in your neighborhood. I did not yet decide.... Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Cool. this is definitely going to be really great. but Montreux is just too far away, not possible.
I'll wait and see what he'll do in Holland or Belgium.
I hope for not SO many shows like last time here in Holland/Belgium. I hope to go to an aftershow this time.

Last time you could print the tickets. With other acts you had to switch the ticket for a wristband and you could go in and out and back in again. Not so with Prince. The barcode was scanned and you could not go out and back in. Also you had to check your bag. | |
