While listening to Mark Goodyear this morning on BBC Radio 2 who currnetly have '3121' as there album of the week, at the end of the 'FURY' track he announced that he knew a Prince secret that his fans will love more detail April 17th.....

Why the wait?

"....Don't u like surprises?"

He will disclose that Prince will give birth to a hamster. Old news.

Or that he likes to eats bees in cemetaries in the dead of night

Well I know Mark Goodier went to the media playback in Feb so maybe a radio 2 live exclusive has been organised. Mark Goodier is a big P fan so lets hope its something like that

****UPDATE/CORRECTION****

Mark Goodier has just this second mentioned (on BBC Radio 2) that the 'secret' regarding Prince will be announced in the WEEK of the 17th April. So it may not be the 17th itself.

I've never been a regular listener to Radio 2 but it looks like i will be npw for the next 4 weeks!!

A tour would be the obvious thing which would be a freezerburn.

Befor eteh Purple Ticket thing became available to UK buyers (it was just USA and Holland up until a few days ago)....he said he had something very special instore for UK fans

purpledoveuk said:

What a curious web they weave. Is it really a tour? Cant be for UK only, could be this ticket thing.

I think Europe can ready itself for a spate of promo appearances if nothing else....

What about a movie??

Prince is so hard that he's ceased to eat honey. He now chews bees.

if some of you dont want to be spoilt don't highlight the below

The Secret is he is doing a live gig for Radio 2.

don't ask which date though

Which is still NOT confirmed - Mark G's taking a gamble.

smoo said:

Uh, we can still see it.

I've been a member since day one....even though they haven't delivered of everything they said they would and it's often a shambles (Like the last priority tickets) I wouldnt dare not join as Id probably miss something important....having said that I havent actually been to the site for god knows how long (before Musicology came out I'm sure)

Why the wait?

smoo said:

a) What does this have to do with Radio 2 ?
b) Reviews that you don't agree with WILL happen, people are entitled to their opinion. Phoning someone to abuse them is pretty sad don't you think ?

Just to clarify, because some are saying this is just hype, there will be a special Prince announcement in the week of April 17.This was said on air by BBC Radio 2 DJ Mark Goodier, who has always pushed Princes’ music, and has been playing tracks from 3121 (Radio 2s’ Album of the Week). I am convinced that what will happen is a radio –only concert that will be broadcast some weeks after. I am so sure of this as this is exactly what happened with Stevie Wonder last year. A question related to the artist will be asked and the hundreds or so winners will get tickets to see the show live. Also note, fellow DJ, Janice Long is playing tracks from the album too. See the BBC Radio 2 website for playlist and programme schedule details. I hope that leaves y’all SATISFIED
