Prince's people never announced that. And seriously, why do u even give a shyte? if u don't like how he negotiates for perfomances, don't go see him. its as easy as that. there are plenty of others out here that will.

And why is that?
Because he can't / does not want to arrange his concerts in time in a proper manner I can't say I don't like that?
Pfffff...

I care because you do.
Can't you see the imbalance with the serious Jehova stuff, his stance on (C), his image, etc versus the simply bad job he does on stuff like getting a contract ready for this concert, but also the lotusflow3r site, the merchandise,etc?
Can't you see a pattern?


From what I've heard, he doesn't care much for that site.....

to the people who are going: have fun!

That said, let me say that Prince is a real asshole for not touring the continent! Since 2002 all he did was Montreux 2007 and the O2 shows, having fans obligated to travel and driving them to having extensive costs to see him perform! It sucks! Yay to bands like U2, or even Coldplay (who suck, IMO) for taking the effort to tour around the world after almost each new album, enabling all fans to see them perform!

Checked Lotusflower some minutes ago. No tickets there. What a shame!
What Do you think, is he going to play some Michael Jackson stuff? That would be fantastic.

Tickets will be available through ticketcorner at 14 h on Saturday. Two years ago, it was impossible to get them on line, only by getting to one of their point of sales in Switzerland.

Yes.
Don't you see a pattern?
Longer breaks in between tours?
And perhaps not yet a trend but some points do appear: doing a 'tour' of shows in one spot (Vegas, O2, ...).
In other words: Hoe does not attach a 'proper' 'classic' (world)tour to each album. He tours less often.
