What - he didn't do the whole show, just because it was not sold out??? WHAT AN ARROGANT TWAT !!!

Like I posted; Sony reps in Holland say that a Dutch show is being planned, so I am sure that if this probing turns to actual planning, Europe can look forward to a 2005 tour.

Uk ain't Europe. Stupid lot drives on the wrong side of the road. I mean, if you are going to treat this thread like bullshit, let me be free to piss on the Brits.

false report alert!
pp8 over at npgmc squashed all the tour rumours thus far yesterday by saying that no tour has been planned yet,and furthermore,when /if they are,you will hear about it over there first!
again-NO TOUR HAS BEEN PLANNED YET!NADA,ZERO DATES...

Can u ask 2 your sources if a new album is planned before Summer?

Thanx 4 your reply.

love2thenines2003 said:

Sure! I have to be honest that this is a doubtable source, as no one knows what's in Prince's head.

But a friend of mine (isn't that always the case?) knows someone at Paisley Park, who told my friend that an acoustic album is being discussed and that they even mastered an album.

But I am sure Prince masters like loads of stuff that never sees the light of day.

Just like the talk about an European tour. That info comes from Sony reps, who are always prone to gossip, I am afraid. If Prince's representatives are informing about possible dates and venues, it does not mean there will be a tour. They are probably just shopping around.

But I think a new tour is too good a reason to release another album. I like two good rumours together.

HamsterHuey said:

Thanx u so much 4 reply!

Best regards

I must admit that after hearing the boots of the Musicology tour, an acoustic album would seem MIGHTY nice...

So I hope this is a true rumour. If not, I hope it takes flight and sparks a chord in the Prince camp and they go, like; "Hey! Now that is a good idea!"

HamsterHuey said:

From my point of view..i prefer a brand new album with new songs!!!

love2thenines2003 said:

I am sure TWO albums won't bite eachother.

I was at that show and it looked pretty full from where I was sitting. I didn't see any empty seats and it was hot as hell. It was so crowded, that it took 30 minutes just to get out of the arena and an hour to get out of the parking lot. We finally gave up and drove over the grass onto the main road.

I also saw the song listings on the org and he had performed every last one of them.

OMG. I'm am so happy! I hope these dates are true. I'm in SC. and my birthday is in April. That would be wonderful if he had that show in Columbia.

actually, they're not. gonna go ahead and lock this thread up, there's already all these tour rumors circulating here already. everybody, just wait and see if we hear anything official, as opposed to relying on 2nd- and 3rd-hand sources.

kthx.
