Sources: Prince in talks with city about St. Paul concert 
ST. PAUL, Minn. - Prince is exploring the potential to have a concert in downtown St. Paul next month. MPR News has learned that the artist has been in talks to have a show downtown, possibly Sept. 15, but not inside the Xcel Energy Center.
People with direct knowledge of the situation say Prince is in talks with the city about dates, locations, permits and security.
A statement from the city said St. Paul won't confirm or deny discussions with Prince, but said there is no formal contract or agreement with him at this time for any shows in the city.
If it happens, it would be the third high-profile event the city has landed, including the Red Bull Flugtag glider competition that brought nearly 100,000 people to Harriet Island and the city's riverfront in the summer of 2010. Red Bull also staged Crashed Ice, a downhill skating competition staged before large crowds on Cathedral Hill in January.

If true,  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

So, Prince may be heading toward home again. If this is true, great for peeps in that area. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Opening up Paisley P for a nice intimate concert?!? I'm there. Please give us at least a 2 week notice.....thx.  Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews. | |

Oh, RodeoSchro! My bad. 
Have you seen he and his band perform? And, yeah, it was great seeing Prince perform with Sheila E. in Oakland. Best of the W2A performances that I saw--they still have a real chemistry on stage--when they are getting along with each other, that is!
No I haven't seen him perform yet | |

Not trynna hear Larry | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Yeah, Larry was in Oakland, too... The first night it was okay, but he performs the same exact set everytime... I heard some clips from his new album and his voice...isn't what it was...when it was good... Stick with playing and singing bass, Larry...not solo...

Yes, indeed he did.
Oh, man...you remind me of when I went to see Morris Day and Half-time a couple of years ago... He had a segment when he invited ladies from the audience to come up for a dance-off. I was chicken-shit, as usual, but Morris got a variety of shapes, shades, and ages on the stage. There were a couple of really great-looking young ladies...but guess who won the dance-off? An ole school gramma with a mustache...who could get down... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

Well, let's see what he'll do. It looks like a one off concert. Will he just relax and do the hits? Will he do something w.r.t. Andy's new album? Will he do something new from himself? 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. | |

September 11th 2012 will be the 25th anniversary of the official opening of Paisley Park will it not? A celebratory gig to coincide this & Superconductor?  Or does Prince not do anniversaries? 9.11.87- won't forget this date as it was my first ever wedding when was an 11 year old bridesmaid for my brother's marriage! And his daughter looks like a blonde Andy Allo! Ahhh fate... u funny old' thing!  | |

Sigh. Get ready to be groped by the TSA. Be aware that you can be held against your will indefinately, legally and without due process. Especially when over there and even if not there. (see extraordinay rendition)
When you're there have a good look around and check your visuals against what you know of the economic and financial crimes that are happening there. 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. | |
