Why is Prince quiet all of a sudden after the release of his albums?

After 3 Leno shows and 3 shows at Nokia, no word from him since. Is he done promoting the album?

well lets see, his lotusflow3r site has a tickets section that says to check back for future ticket opportunities for upcoming shows. seeing as Prince is always making music or rehearsing with his fellow musicians perhaps a tour is in the works. So he maybe quiet to all of us here in TV Land but the ground might be shakin at 77 Beverly Park or Paisley Park.

maybe he has already finished the next album and is planning the lotus tour. by the end of the tour he will have finished the next album and the album he finished before the tour started will be officially released.

it doesn't happen that way anymore, does it. confused

But doesn't he have a publicist? He should at least booked more appearances on other shows like Regis and Kelly, Good Morning America or even American Idol. He has the momentum going, he should continue the high profile.

I am hoping we see him doing some more promoting soon, and I think a show in Mpls is appropriate, I mean his album is only titled MPLSoUND..... biggrin

He's on an exhaustive world-wide search for his next protege.

Not just anybody will be the next Bria Valente... it's gotta be someone really uber-amazing and talented to live up to the standard she's set.

I think he's content with the fans trying to digest 3 discs he just put out. Later on, he might go on tour.

Dollars to donuts, he's already lost interest in the set. I remember looking at the tracklists for the 02 shows, and thinking how little of Planet Earth stuff he played. He did play "Planet Earth" once, "Guitar" a few times, and maybe "I'm The 1 U Wanna C", but 21 dates, and so LITTLE attention paid to your latest album is just insane.

Judging from the flip flops and tennis shoes, his hips much be reeking havoc on his 50 year old body.
