Lawsuits

Yep, they've already started!

"A year after the legal battle over Prince’s estate was finally settled, the music legend’s heirs are now suddenly back in court again, fighting amongst each other over allegations that certain family members are trying to wrongfully seize control.

The lawsuit, made public Wednesday (Jan. 10) in Delaware court, amounts to a civil war among the members of Prince Legacy LLC, one of the two holding companies created to run the star’s $156 million estate. (Primary Wave, which owns the other half of the estate, is not involved in the dispute.)

The case was filed by L. Londell McMillan and Charles Spicer, two longtime Prince friends who serve as managers for Prince Legacy, over allegations that four of Prince’s family members have been improperly trying to force them out of the company. They say such a move not only violates the group’s operating agreement but would cause massive damage to efforts “to preserve and protect Prince’s legacy.” "

Now, that can't be good for 2024 releases, right?

Well we always have sheets and PJ's

YES! But, if they've already printed OLD FRIENDS 4 SALE on vinyl, then maybe that's all we'll get in 2024, and matching sheets and PJ's...

with the love symbol album though, if theyre doing an SDE, which part of the tour should they include? would they include act one and act two both? doubtful.

There are so many great shows...I do hope they do an ACT II show. I was at an ACT I TOronto show (March 30, 1993) and it was amazing but some of those ACT II shows started bleeding into new material where he'd do stuff like Endorphin Machine.

The REX aftershow 1993 was originally planned to be released as part of the Diamonds & Love set so I consider it a crime if it doesn't get a proper release in 2024:lol:

Imagine buying the Diamonds & Pearls SDE without the Glam Slam Show

Prince live was/is the GOAT!

That aftershow in Paris IS incredible!

But can anybody recall any first-hand report that it was actually filmed? ... Either way, I'd be happy with just the audio.

Personally I'm hoping for Love Symbol SDE We know it was remastered, we know there were vault tracks compiled and likely a show Blu Ray

Yeah there's no reason for them to hold it back and it will most likely be released by the end of the year.

Don't hold your breath: it is all about milking Purple Rain to the max this year.

Perfect new SDE..

O(-> album remaster / singles / remixes / vault

+

Blu ray: Act I, The Ryde Dyvine, Act II, promo videos

This, to me, would be the best SDE so far.

Hey, they just released new leather jackets in the Prince Store.

I was there and it was filmed because there was a guy with a big handheld camera on stage before the show and some people have seen parts of the show over the years.

Whoa! Just listening to the bootleg gives me chills. Go figure a soundboard and a pro-shot!

I wonder if the video was set to be in the Diamonds & Love set...

That would be unbelievable to see after listening to the boot for years

Yet, it wouldn't have had anything to do with D&P nor with Love Symbol. I don't think Act II was that much linked to the Love Symbol album, so it'd have been a weird choice.

Agree. Given the choice I'd rather have an Act I show. Always wanted a soundboard of one of those shows

I need to convince Sharon Nelson to do a cover of Bloody Mouth
