I don't know how true it is but I won't rule any of this out. I will say that even if it's true, like someone said before, Prince would be the one to kill this. If it's true, then 2006 will really be a huge year. Let's just wait and see.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

wouldnt dates be announced yet if its only 1 month away.....and why isnt anything posted on NPGMC yet??

It sounds EXCITING but ??


Gray: Is this going to be an arena tour? Small theaters (a la ONA)? Combination?


hmmm So one or more of the following has happened: promoter(s) chosen, venues reserved, ticketing arrangements made, crew and band hired and rehearsed, equipment leased, any or all of the myriad other things that must be done...but not one word has leaked out about it, though the tour is supposed to start in a month or so?

Jay...as for NPGMC, judging by their performance since the release of TAC, I wouldn't expect to see the news there first! wink

I guess we will soon see. Those are specifics that only a tour manager can answer.

You know something, I'll believe GrayCap23. He doesn't seem to be a prankster around here plus what's the worst that can happen? Prince won't do it? If P does any of this GREAT if not cool too but I'll take GrayCap23 at his word.

So gray, either yourself or anyone else here, how likely (percent-wise), in your opinion, that prince will carry out this plan of attack.

For me, it's the following:

1) Catalog - 30%

2) "Friends" tour - 75%

3) Band = tamar's - Very likely (90%)


So, how about it folks, what do you think?

Oh, and, Gray, you don't sound childish to me, so I believe ya. Wether the little guy carries out this plan is another thing entirely.

I've seen some crazy shit posted here before, but this has got to be one of the most intriguing. It just seems so far fetched that there could be some truth to it afterall.

I remember a few months back someone posting the tracklist to Ultimate Prince and everybody tore that dude to shreds, then low and behold, it turned out to be true.

But in this case, my money's on the fact that it's fake. Either Graycap23 has lost his mind, or he's fallen for a nasty practicle joke. But for his and my sake, I hope it's all true (except the Brown Mark bit wink)

Please don't feed the BS! For a start, the report is full of errors! smile



how would you know that? because of "Shockadelica"? maybe they wanted SotT to fit on 2 cds? and it was Shockadelica put it over the limit?

so what are the other "errors" just becasue it seems unlikely dosn't mean it is not true. for all we know prince made this deal to get his masters back sooner.

(which is what i would do if i was prince)

Honestly, I believe I'm a bit different than most of the people when it comes to Prince. After talking to Prince, I believe that he truly intends on doing everything that is reflected in my initial post. That said, artist, especially busy ones, can easily be distracted. You NEVER know when your art will take you in a different direction. Prince does have these plans in the works, whether or not the timing is exact is another issue.

If this is a "hoax", someone went through a GREAT deal of trouble to pull it off. I was not born yesterday and I would NOT have posted this if I did not believe it was TRUE. I verified that this was Prince and I'll leave it at that.

Do you know when I want Prince remasters? Right after he realizes the folly of getting rid of cuss words and explicit lyrics. If that has already happened, then I'm ready. If not, I would rather wait until he comes to his senses.

Weird debate... Would be great news, a bit 2 great 2 believe but...

Considering this :
"For legal and other reasons, refrain from posting fake tracklists and attention-seeking "rumor" threads. Violating posts will be removed and your account possibly deleted."
I guess the reason this thread is still here is that the mods have proof that it ain't a hoax.

MODERATORS WHERE R U? We need the truth.

There will be a BOX set of all of this material released right around Christmas time. And the Prince will be kept as LOW as possible.


What will be kept as low as possible?

Can you tell us more details about your conversation?


I tried to summarize the detail as best I could. Believe me, print this out and save it. That's about all I can say.

The band with W&L, Brownmark, etc are in Minnesota as we speak getting ready for the tour.

Prince also mentioned that the Purple Rain remastered set is going to be really special.

The entire Boxset package will contain, artwork, cd booklet's, etc.



I hate to burst your bubble champ, but there's no one in Minnesota but Prince right now and thats straight from a source that works for him. The above does not exist. either you've been fooled or you need to eat before the hallucinations start up again.

You say to-MAY-to, I say to-MAH-to, same thing man. I understand that things change for whatever reasons, be them artistic or otherwise, I just hope changes don't keep the things you mentioned (or were mentioned to you) keep from fruition, that's all.
