Yes, i think judging by the LA reception he will be glad to come back to the UK where he always gets a very warm reception and appreciation from us Brits and where he can sell tickets no problem!!

I am hoping he will and hoping it won't be too too soon as Ive booked Poland and in the midst of taking desperate measures to go to the north sea jazz festival. But if I have no luck then summer gigs will be appreciated lol

Id definetely go no matter what but it would be nice to have some focus to a tour and not just churning out the same hits again. Id even take a greatest hits tour of different greatest hits - 97 was the last time I heard Little Red Corvette (not just a sample), 93 was the last When Doves Cry (not just a sample), never heard I Wanna Be Your Lover (not just a sample)...so many hits to play and we always get Purple Rain, U Got The Look, Kiss...

Wow u seem to follow P about quite a bit - do you go alone and stay with other fans or do you go with friends etc (its quite hard to convince non Prince fans to go to these things)!

I'm hoping he one day will do the Brecon Jazz Festival, I know Maceo is!

Well it would've been just Poland with my missus but this north sea jazz fest looks like something else so I can't resist the idea of going to it so am in the midst of sorting out going for Saturday with my mum (may seem sad but she's pretty stand up) but then just seeing about possibly hooking up with others for the Sunday. but last year had the luck of doing a euro trip with my friend and making a quick stop at Roskilde but believe me there's others who would go to the other side of the world. Me : I'm just using my last uni term funds to there best potential wink

That's cool!

I lived in Cardiff until a few weeks ago (was living with my gf but we decided to go our separate ways). I went to Llanishen to find the DVLA office once, got bloody lost around there trying to find it LOL, so may have gone down your street or something.

I'd rather he do the Apollo instead. I loved the ONA tour there. The MEN just means Prince-by-numbers, another run of the mill yawnsome hits show like the main shows at the O2. It made me laugh to see all the idiot people filing out of the O2 whilst those in the know were waiting outside IndigO2.

If i see him coming to the UK again, i'm keeping an eye on the venues. Big arenas will just mean i'll be looking for aftershows only. I might be out of luck, but at least i won't be going for a toilet break or the bar whilst 'Take Me With U' gets played for the zillionth time.

Thanks 4 ur kind words & support.

I say MEN Arena cuz it will get Prince maximum profitabilty and showmanship!

I went to 21 Nights O2 and by chance he did Indigo dat night, but it was 2 late.

Yeah its been almost 5 years since he was at UK.

im sure he will announce more European dates, so might as well do the UK. I think he will get the Royal treatment by the press, he is really well respected here and known. Notin like Croke Park organisation here! Its Manchester.

Any one got better number?

That's some funny math there, dude. It hasn't even been 4 years since the O2 shows, yet you're rounding up to 5?

I don't mean to sound rude but you are aware he's playing in the UK this summer right?

I don't mean to sound rude, but it would be clever to look at the date of the postings before making such "smart" comments.

It's May 2011. The O2 shows were August 2007. That's 3 years, 10 months.
