HIT N RUN TORONTO May 19th! Tickets on sale Monday 18th at noon

.

UPDATE: Prince has added another date to his pop-up Hit & Run tour, booking a May 19th gig at Toronto's Sony Centre for the Performing Arts.

.

Tickets for the concert go on sale Monday, May 18th at noon local time at Live Nation.

.

Like the Hit & Run stop in Louisville, hometown of 3rd Eye Girl drummer Hannah Welton, the group's guitarist Donna Grantis hails from the outskirts of Toronto.

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 last-minute Toronto show

By Jane Stevenson, Postmedia Network

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.

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.

it's fun to guess! My predictions are:

.

$70 after tax and fees for the cheapest tickets

$125 for the next level

$250 for the 'good' seats

$400-$500 for the best seats

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.

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.
