A piano and microphone tour programme. Thanks funk4u.com

I received my much awaited tour programme from what would have been the piano and microphone world tour.
It is beautiful and invaluable to me. This won't be going on eBay.. ever.
I want to publically thank everyone involved who patiently waited and kept me and other clients informed every month of the situation. Thanks to Bremer trust who allowed the preorders to be fulfilled.
Thanks to the lovely lady who sent me the most beautiful email. She was crying as she typed it saying it was what Prince wanted.
The programme is dedicated to the loving memory of his father john l nelson.
Finally, a special thanks to my musical guardian angel Prince for everything and more that he achieved and that he has put in motion for the future.
God bless you.

I've seen some of the pictures from the program on the net and wondered how to purchase them. That will indeed be a loving and lasting memory. smile

Thanks for your nice words. Not all the pictures are posted online. There are pictures from what I think Atlanta.. I could and am probably wrong.
It's so beautifully done?
I hope there will be a chance for more people to purchase it. I know not many went out for distribution.

Hi there,

No. they were on sale at electric fetus for one day I think a few days before he passed. I preordered mine directly from funk4u.com before April 21st. They weren't sure bremer trust would give them the stock to fulfill the preorders but they did thankfully. We had the option of having our money back or waiting for a decision. I decided to be patient.

This makes me want to cry😰 He had such good business ideas and so many things he was doing or planning to do. I don't know who got him those pills but I hope they get what they deserve.

I'm patiently waiting for my program to arrive. I'm so happy I ordered from Funk4U and remained patient while they were waiting for authorization to process the orders.

The live shots are from the Australia tour. The book was first available at the shows in Oakland. Electric Fetus got some on April 16th and they were also being sold at Paisley Park that night.

I didn't know this. Thanks for letting me know. I must have missed them on eBay because I have been looking, just in case bremer trust did not allow the orders to be fulfilled.

Thanks for letting me know about that. I wasn't sure if it was Atlanta or in Australia.
I'm not in the states so i didn't know where they were available.
As the concert I was going to was cancelled, I bought it online from the official distributor as I can't travel to Paisley Park. I am so grateful to have it anyway, but would have preferred to have enjoyed Prince live rather than have a tour brochure.

I just really wanted to thank all the staff at funk4u for their kindness and their professionalism to Prince's wishes. I hope that some of them browse on here, so if they do, from the uk.. gratitude from an appreciative fan.

Yes the pics are from the Australian show. I was lucky enough to order mine from Electric Fetus as soon as Prince said they had them on his Twitter account. Sadly of course he passed away before it shipped but Electric Fetus still honoured the sales. It was important for me to have it as I was at the Sydney Opera House show and wanted to have the photo memories. But sadly it arrived after Princes passing and it took me weeks to be brave enough to even open it. I did eventually open it just to check the order was right, but it still sits in its Electric Fetus packaging. It was so bittersweet to have it arrive - but I am so glad I have it and I know one day I may be able to enjoy it more - it is just still a little too raw. I am so glad these are getting into the real fans hands that appreciate them.

Thank you Prince for every note you left behind 💜

I got the notification just this morning that my programme is on the way.. So very grateful to Funk4U and everyone involved in getting the agreement. As I'd ordered the day he died I really wasnt even sure it would be accepted or ever arrive.


Never got to see the show since the european leg was cancelled, so this programme means a great deal to me.

I just checked Ebay for this booklet and it is very sad that someone is trying to make extra from the sale of this item. Markup is very high. One could buy 10 of these booklets for what the sellers are asking. While it is anticipated that the booklet would be at a higher price being on Ebay, this is riduculous and opportunistic.

That was my point. These are not readily available and the high prices are justified to me.
