I plan on going. I'm hoping he will decide to play. I'm not sure if it being free is a good thing or bad in that respect. I guess we will just have to see.

There is a whole lot going on in Minneapolis tonight with 20,000+ at Basilica Block Party concert and 40,000+ at Imagine Dragons concert. Not to mention all the people who go out of town for the weekends in the summer up to the cabin. I would think this will have a small crowd.

Oh, good! Please let us in on the details...

They are taking people in groups of 15 to hear the album. Some people are vying for position near the stage in hopes he plays and some are trying to hear the new album. They didnt play the album over the P.A. or anything like that.

Why on earth is this in the concerts section? A really strange and dare I say it stupid move. See sense and put this thread where it belongs as a sticky in the Prince music forum. [Edited 7/12/14 23:53pm]

I agree; it belongs in P:M&M

bloody hell, Prince has rerecorded white caps , with hanna now on main vocals! According to twitter!ed to hear And its a great song , jeez so wanted to hear princes version.

Correction > 3rd title might be = Whitecaps

@3RDEYEGIRL - "WHITECAPS" [with @HannahFordDrums on LEAD VOCALS] from #PLECTRUMELECTRUM WAS PLAYED and RECEIVED STELLAR REVIEWS from ALL!!!

no wonder warners arnt rushing to release this. Is it a 3rdeyegirl album or a prince album? They wont no what to do with it! What about princes solo album? Thats why they are both in limbo.

It is beginning to sound to me like Prince is not sure which versions of the songs to release - with him on vocals or Hannah. All the listening parties seem to be aimed at testing the reaction of people to the different versions.

Good point. At least he will probably sing the songs live in concert at some point . Songs like whitecaps which seems to be the strongest track on the album

Oh please not Hannah on vocals. Please, please, please not.

yea i was being too polite, Im gutted hes given some good songs for bloody hanna to sing!

Parade had 'I Wonder U'. I'm not saying Plectrumelectrum will be any near Parade in terms of quality, (though I'm not saying it can't be), but just because it will have a song or two with Hannah on lead vocals doesn't mean it will be bad.

Yeah, it was never meant to be a just Prince on Vocals anyway, thats why its being pushed as a 3rd Eye Girl album and not a Prince Record anyone expecting the latter will be dissapointed. Im looking forward to hearing it now, well if i ever do anyway
