So if this is legit... which I'm assuming it is, I'm going to go out on a limb & say they might be playing in Denmark at one of their following HITNRUN shows...
I'm sure this'll make up for the last misunderstanding in Toronto. | |

Prince to Play Toronto on TuesdayPublished May 16, 2015
.
.
Back in the fall, Prince disappointed some Toronto fans when a rumoured show never came to pass. This coming week, the Purple One will make up for it by playing a Toronto gig.
. The show will be on Tuesday (May 19) at the Sony Centre for the Performing Arts. Prince will be accompanied by his rock-oriented backing band 3RDEYEGIRL; the group's guitarist Donna Grantis hails from Toronto. . Tickets will go on sale at noon on Monday (May 18) through Live Nation. This is part of Prince's so-called "HITnRUN" tour in which the iconic musician announces shows at the last minute. .

Prince to play last-minute Toronto showBy Jane Stevenson, Postmedia Network First posted: Saturday, May 16, 2015 01:00 PM EDT . http://www.torontosun.com...ronto-show . TORONTO - Prince and his all-female band 3rdeyegirl, featuring Mississauga guitarist Donna Grantis, will play Toronto’s Sony Centre on Tuesday, May 19 as part of The Purple One's HitnRun tour in North America. . Tickets for the last minute show go on sale Monday at www.livenation.com . The T.O. stop is the fourth date of the tour with Prince most recently playing on Mother's Day at the Rally 4 Peace show to a sold-out audience at Baltimore’s Royal Farms Arena following the violence in the city and throughout the U.S. . Just last November, Prince fans in Toronto were left disappointed when rumours of a show at Massey Hall failed to materialize after they lined up around the block hoping to buy tickets. At the time, both LiveNation and Prince said it was nothing more than “a production rehearsal” for “possible future performances.” Looks like T.O. has one now. .

What are the ticket prices like for these Hit n' Run shows? I cant pay another $250 to be far, far away from the man... |

I think I'll pass on this tour, but cool choice of venue. The Sony Centre is not huge. Should make for a more intimate experience than an arena show. [Edited 5/18/15 15:34pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Interesting that Ingrid Chavez's album was titled May 19th, 1992. Probably no connection, but you never know. Interesting to consider Prince's different mindset then and now. |

this hit n run thing is starting to remind me of Dylans neverending tour. Prince can hit n run till he retiers. | |

It's "interesting" that LiveNation is announcing 3RDEYEGIRL as special guests...just like they did in Baltimore . https://twitter.com/LiveN...9758297088

SignOthetimes1987 said: this hit n run thing is starting to remind me of Dylans neverending tour. Prince can hit n run till he retiers. Dylan does close to 100 concerts a year. Every year since 1988. He plans his concerts well in advance. Concerts in England in October have already been announced. The Never Ending Tour is nothing like Prince's Hit & Run thing. [Edited 5/17/15 15:33pm] | |
