Should this b referred 2 as the N.E.W.S tour?

eye noticed that this tour has no name, and a lot of people are referring 2 it as "Prince Live", or "The Aussie Tour 2003" as it says on my T-shirt, both unbearably lame names - eye think from now on we should call it the N.E.W.S tour, sounds a lot cooler and makes sense since it directly follows the album's release. On the other hand, it's a greatest-hits, commercial tour, dead against the spirit of the N.E.W.S album...

What do y'all think?

That would make N.E.W.S. a pretty inappropriate name then. rolleyes

I think it should have been called "In The Raw".

But then again, N.E.W.S...north east south west pretty much encompasses the world nod
In the distance a light shines and I know it is mine. Someday I will touch it because it calls me. It says cross the line, cross the line. I know everything is not always what it seems, so I pinch myself daily just in case it's a dream

How about THE PRINCE MUSICOLOGY TOUR 2003/04 ??

'Musicology' sums up the musically eclectic set-list on this tour which drew from old & new songs and lot's of funk classics. Also Prince 'debuted' the song Musicology at the 'aftershows' so it could be seen as fitting...

What do yer think?

shoulda been dubbed "The MPLS JW's tour spreading the truth", special guest: LArry G. and his wife, no doubt waving that damned white towel on stage... wonder if they wash that towel from show to show, as it's been going on since 98...
