I'm confused. Did Sheila say that about "...my brother's remains nor I will be at any of these memorials" or was that something Tyka said and it's gotten all mixed up in the fray of comments and miscommunication? Because I don't remember Sheila saying or posting anything like that (not saying she didn't, just that I don't remember seeing anything like that) but I do recall Tyka posting something along the lines of the only memorial that she'd be at and the only one that would be the 'true' memorial is/would be the one the family organized. So who really said that bolded comment? Sheila, Tyka, or...?? confuse

It was Tyka.

Thanks, that's what I'd thought but wanted to make sure. Things can get so muddled.

How do we know Londell is behind all of this. Sure he's kind of been the public face if you will but we don't know that it's his job to pull this tribute together. I would imagine his hands are full with getting PP ready for public tours. Again I think this is turning out to be a shit show but not sure it's all Londell's fault. Not for me to pass judgement when I have no idea what's all going on behind the scenes. More communication and clarity would be appreciated. Is Londell the official spokesperson for the estate? Who knows....

But if you make a written representation that people rely upon to their detriment, you can be legally responsible. That's why I said he's a lawyer and should know better and have been more careful what he wrote on Twitter. As in nothing until it was all finalized with written contracts.



yes This is Law 101.

[Edited 9/11/16 17:15pm]



Together, both Londell (Entertainment Monetization Expert) and Bremer (Estate Special Administrator) who hired him are key players/negotiators and have been in the driver seat.
Hope it all turns out well.

I've been hearing rumors that the official family tribute show will never happen. One person even told me that a member of The Revolution told them that the show was just a "rumor." Also, several people have said that they called the U. S. Bank Stadium asking for booking details, only to be told that there is no concert scheduled for October 13. That there is no signed contract for a Prince Tribute Concert. At first, I dismissed this notion, but now, tickets are on sale for a tribute concert in Cleveland on October 15, featuring Sheila E. and Morris Day and The Time. I'm really starting to wonder. WHAT IS GOING ON???!!??? Folks from around the world have already made travel arrangements to MLPS for the weekend of the planned tribute. Whatever the case, it's time for the estate to speak on this.

OH NO!!! WHAT'S GOING ON???? eek cry

fit pat cry cry

I'll enjoy touring Paisley Park on 10/14 nod

Can someone please give me the info on how can

i purchase tickets 2 see the movie Under The Cherry Moon

& Sign O" The Time? music

The movie event isn't sold out yet. Here's the link to register: https://www.eventbrite.co...rm=listing

Looking forward to seeing you there.</p>

By the way, Andy Allo looks different in that photo. If their is a memorial tribute, let's hope she performs. Perhaps a couple of nice acoustic songs?

She does look different. I think it's the hairstyle change. Surely, she will be invited.

Wow. It would have been amazing for Bilal to have performed with The Revolution at the memorial tribute. Perhaps with Bilal on lead vocals they could have performed such gems as "International Lover" and "The Ladder". It would have been extra special with Jill Jones doing background vocals on "The Ladder"...

I think it's been taken down but Morris posted a photo of Jellybean at the drum kit in what looked like US Bank Stadium.

I have been checking other associated artists that have been mentioned or used before to cover P's songs: Bilal, Maxwell, DeAngelo, Chaka Khan, Fantasia, Shelby J, Janelle M., Andy Allo, Kandice Springs, Judith Hill, The Revolution collectively and singularly, Morris Day-even Bruno Mars-not one has this concert showing on their tour schedules and the majority of them appear to be booked elsewhere. None of 3rdEyeGirl have mentioned it. It's concerning, particularly since those that I thought would be definites are booked elsewhere. Larry Graham looks like he might be available. doh!

There was a story from the WSJ that claimed Live Nation was involved. I wonder if that turned out to not be true?


This can't be true. WSJ would not really know - music biz isn't really their main beat, so they have landed the scoop on this. Some hack put 2 + 2 together (as LN had done some shows with P) and came up with 5.

LN owns some very high profile management companies, not to mention exclusive touring rights of other huge acts. They are also incredibly business savvy, and would have got this show done and dusted when he was breaking records in the Billboard chart.

This is devastating news that Bilal won't be at the show...unless he's somehow able to extricate himself from his Oct. 13 commitment. I know that's not likely, but I'm just thinking out loud. I looked at his tour schedule and, for next few weeks the Cleveland date is one of few on which he's even in the country. He seems to have some kind of residency going on in France. BTW: BrownMark knows what's up!!!!!

Shelby J posted something on FB shortly after the August memorial referencing October. Trevor Guy (Donna Grantis's husband) also posted a photo of US Bank Stadium referencing the October 13 date.

If they can't get goods artists then I think they need to scrap it. But why would BrownMark tweet that he had a good conversation with Londell, that he would have more news soon but "it's all good news". What's the good news? confused

Hopefully, Kanye West, Beyoncé and Taylor Swift are all booked elsewhere on that day.

No problem. Drama and confusion abound. Maybe there will be some kind of announcement in the next day or so.

And it's Sept.13-one month from the supposed date. USBank stadium still doesn't have it listed and no tickets or lineup info. has been announced. Wondering at what point do we give up and cancel reservations? One plus is that airline ticket prices appear to be holding steady.
