Haha im struggling to grasp if that is a serious comment or not, however, i do agree, Chocolate milkshake doesnt get enough exposure, I like chocolate milkshake.

On a serious note though, money wouldnt be an issue, A promoter fronts the money (ie.. AEG) Prince would get a set fee per gig, the promoter sets the ticket prices generally, depending on Prince's fee and their outlay they would then choose what they want to charge to then make their profit, how it would work for a full tour anyway normally.

yeah but with sponsorship the sponsor is just giving money in exchange for advertising which covers the tour costs, so the ticket price can be lower and the costs of the tour will still be covered. and who better than mcdonalds, one of the biggest most well known brands in the entire world to sponsor one of the biggest and most well known musicians on prince.org?

McDonalds aren't exactly the most credible brand.. I'm not sure any artist would want to be associated with that image, but especially not Prince. He's a vegetarian.

Why all the teasing? If there will be a London show then please just bloody release the details. We've been teased with this 'carrot on the end of the stick' since last August & all the fun is wearing thin. Someone must b getting amusement out of the drip,drip hints but it's certainly not me. Sorry, but starting 2 get fed up waiting on a London show that was promised on 3rdeyegirl's twitter 6 moths ago. No we havent forgotten. If I promised my kids something really, really great & kept them hanging on & on this long, I imagine they'd start to doubt & mistrust me. Investing ur love & energy in being a P fan is exhausting sometimes... hrmph


he needs to do a a proper tour like normal artists. if the money is an issue, so the tickets don't cost too much he should get sponsorship like what beyonce gets with pepsi. so he could have mcdonalds sponsor the tour and the tickets would be cheap and he could play lots of nights at the o2 and have his face on cups and bags and burger boxes and stuff. they could do tie in food like purple rain flamers and give cds away with happy meals. if you bought mcdonalds meals 30 days in a row you could save tokens to get a free ticket to the concert. and prince could dress up like ronald mcdonald and come on stage and sing i'm lovin' it and he would appeal to a new young audience. and if they had chocolate milkshakes at the o2 it would be awesome

So the 7/1/14 travelling date has been taken off the 3rd Eye Girl Twitter page.

I am really puzzled why someone would raise expectation amongst fans and then let them down

Very strange and I am not surprised that some fans have lost interest in Prince these days

Don't we all lose interest and get vexed but the majority keep coming back for more? Last year we had Le Petit Prince and Serpan 'debacles' worse if say than the 07/01 thing - yet still. I'm here. Tempted back by livestreams, videos and new tracks now and then. Pissed off right now but will be like a rat up a drainpipe when an album drops or a tour is announced. Tempting and teasing is cruel at worst, inconsiderate at best but we'll never leave.

That's why you're an addict. You keep going back to those things you know are doing you harm just for a temporary fix wink

I keep coming to the org because it's the only way for me to keep up with Prince! In particular to find out when he's doing shows. I don't have time to solve puzzles, check multiple feeds and sources, etc.! lol razz

You guys just need to wait. It'll be announced when it's announced.. In the mean time, go on with your lives. He doesn't owe you anything. There's no reason to be pissed off.

Haha, well I don't even know what that said.. but what I meant was..

Prince hasn't said a single thing about a UK tour. Neither have his people. There were a couple of cryptic tweets that people read as "Prince will announce a UK tour in the next few days!" and now people are pissed that he hasn't.

The only people who said anything about a UK tour were the media. Surely we all know to take anything the media says with a pinch of salt.

Actually I started this thread because @3rdEyeGirl answered a direct question about a full US tour by stating that London would be the first stop. If the source was the (rag) media I would have dismissed it as irrelevant.

Sure, but "First stop London" doesn't tell us anything. It doesn't even mean they're playing a show in London, nevermind a UK tour. Added to that, they never mentioned a date for their stop in London.

Some people are acting like Prince himself has said "I will be announcing a UK tour tomorrow!" and then hasn't.

His Management also tweeted the Article on her twitter page fromt he Mirror, along with a picture of Prince and caption saying "Uk are you ready" or something along those lines

Well done Unique. What u said is spot on again Sir. The only rumored UK tour is what people have created in their own minds. Until something definite gets announced from an official Prince source, ie Prince himself or dates and tkts r put on sale then its all just a bunch of crap

In fairness it's not just an org fantasy, it hit the mainstream media as well, that doesn't happen by accident or if the fanatics start dreaming, it happens generally because prince's management want it to.

And what about all the "London get ready" bollox?

Aye defo not all fantasy, Prince's Manager's PR guy has been sharing Videos and Images of Prince and 3rd Eye for months now at least 5-10 times a day, why would he be doing that for an artist who isnt really mainstream in the UK, my guess is something will be announced this week, watch this space smile

So who is Prince's manager's PR guy - and where has he been sharing stuff? Or is it Kiran ur talking about. I'm glad the signs generally seem to be pointing towards a yes, hanging on to my final days of annual leave just hoping it'll be soon.
