So wait a minute. Montreux is in Canada now. And they speak Swiss German in Montreal. Montreal isn't in Switzerland, it moved to Canada with all the French speakers. Montreux is next door to Montreal. Except they're on different continents. The main thing to understand, then, is that Canada is part of America now. Ah, this makes perfect sense.

Why are you so all stirred up? He will play, last time it was announced on the 4th of July...first day of the Festival.... Relax man, it has been like this most of the time with confirmations...it fuels the hype...nothing more nothing less... And he is alive...so there is a chance for more concerts...

Prince or no Prince, theres no way im going to anything thats not been completely confirmed by him or his ppl its all a bit fuzzy or then he announces days before he actually performing all that is silly. to be quite honest i rather go to my lovebox weekender on that day seems more fun and something that has been arranged properly, booked tickets with there acts comfirmed months ago on there website and other outlets. there is no maybe's or guessing games.
Well, good luck to all the ppl that do go. hope he turns up. FUNKNROLL!  "February 2014, wow". 'dre.  | |

Purpleaxxe1972 said: I read an article on spin.com that said he needs double hip replacements and he's refusing surgery based on religious beliefs. Maybe the stripped down band is his way of beginning to perform more laid-back shows that aren't as hard on his body as his performances were in the past? Are we beginning to see a "geriatric Prince"?
any particular reason it's called spin? We ain't from Hollywood, so you know it's all good | |

udo said: jethrouk said: anybody from the uk thinking of going?
It seems a horid thing to say; but I can only go if my MJ tickets are refunded. I hope if I do get to go, Prince pays some sort of homage since the gigs would have aready started. Why would he have to pay homage? MJ is by then buried. The quarreling over the heritage has just started. What part does Prince have in there? And why P? (just an open question...) on the musicology tour, prince paid homage 2 both rick james and ray charles when they passed on. when james brown passed, prince acknowledge him in vegas so prince paying homage to Michael wouldn't b a total surprise, he's already done "don't stop til u get enough" with tamar and has done billie jean during a soundcheck in australia in 2003 man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

abierman said: No, it does not.....the title of this thread says 'CONFIRMED', and it's not..... why is it so complicate to check montreuxjazz.com? (there is written 'TBA')
'confirmed' = when montreuxjazz announce it everything else = UNconfirmed | |

Why are you so all stirred up? Why do you call me stirred up? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...
Few people grab the weirdness of the situation. Most people 'let it go', and I might just not be a member of the New Apathetic Generation. He will play, last time it was announced on the 4th of July...first day of the Festival....
It's the 2nd of July now. So what do you mean? It was announced last year? Last time he played? (2007) And even if it was that way that still doesn't make it right. Relax man, it has been like this most of the time with confirmations...it fuels the hype...nothing more nothing less...
And he is alive...so there is a chance for more concerts... If it has been this way, it still does not make it right. How many times do I have to repeat this until `it` lands? And BTW, I am relaxed. Really. Why do people think I am not when I am making my point extra extra clear? Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

You said Prince had lost it, and that he and everyone organising this event needed to grow up and be professional and give ample notice. That's what you said. Not that it was fake. It's all the same. Don't you see? Unconfirmed, ever changing, ever wandering and ever wondering. So there is no concert, until it is confirmed. So until that it's fake, rumour, vapour, yada... And yes, They could do a better job. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |
