?????

First it was three shows in impossible venues, with 35mm cameras which were talked into HD, then it was back to one show with a `cuisine`setup and now it is back to two shows again?
Whatever.
I explained already that he has lost all contact with the real world and sense with his fans: Why make it all so LATE!? The whole festival has been on sale for weeks.
But Prince has to be renegotiating his CONtract to CONserve whatever CONspicuous terms to gain more CONtrol, Over and over.

What is the truth in the new rumour?
Why isn't this thread locked?

^Montreux 2007 was announced fairly late in the day too if I remember correctly. and he's announced stuff much later than this before. It's a small (but reputable) festival; I doubt there are many tickets, and it will sell out regardless.

but speaking about madness, why isn't this up on LF.com? Are they peeved off that none of us have bought the Opus?

Been pretty quiet in Princeworld recently, so this is good news. I really enjoyed the recent Leno performance, so if this is the kind of show Montreux is in for, it should be amazing. Prince, Rhonda, John and Renato have great chemistry.

Still a shame he didn't utilise his website to announce this.

he might just have forgotten all about the website, if the discussions on the putsflower forum are to be believed.

Lol this is great news but strange at the same time. How on earth are we able to buy tickets for this? No word on Lotus or Montreux isn't helpful. Plus i don't know if peeps will be able to book a hotel so late without having big bucks which i dont have.

Shocking marketing once again

http://www.drfunkenberry.com/2009/06/30/prince-will-be-performing-2-shows-at-the-montreux-jazz-festival/

The Montreux Jazz Festival is going to be a little bit more funky this year as a musical genius is planning on taking the stage not once, but twice.




Funny how it started off as

PRINCE IS SLATED 2 PLAY THE MONTREAUX JAZZ FESTIVAL July 18. THIS TIME HE WILL PLAY 3 CONCERTS IN ONE NIGHT 4 WHAT IS SAID 2 B THE HIGHEST FEE PAID 2 ANY PER4MER IN THE FESTIVAL’S HISTORY.

Highest paid? Well all right then. No doubt those performances will be historical.-Dr.FB


give it a week and it'll be just the one....

The one and only Prince WILL be performing 2 shows at Montreux this year and he is bringing a musically talented band with him. Playing with Prince at the legendary festival will be Rhonda Smith, Renato Neto, and John Blackwell.

No Eelco, this is the SECOND confirmation.
He will be there, as it looks now, but how many times he'll play and in what 'vibe' is as of yet completely unknown.

You mean he will fill in some of the MJ evenings at the O2?
But AEG is looking for family members to take his place?

AEG are looking for anyone to fill the dates, they will speak to all the big names 50 dates is alot of space that only MJ could fill by himself after him the only other big act will be Prince and Stevie and The Boss, they may get U2 who knows
