Prince is planning a world tour.
He probably might turn up at the FAMILY Jam. but if he performes, that's for us to find out, and for him to know at the very moment he's on stage. Don't believe he'll perform the whole show. Probably just a guitar solo on "baby i'm a star", or on "Mountains" with Wendy & Lisa.. or just a 'thank you' somewhere over the mic.. they're working on it.
The album is true. i mean, there will always be a new album out sometime in the future, so that makes this rumour alwyas to be a true rumour. I mean, Prince is music, don't forget that. So expect something for sure next year. Yeah.
A new studio album with more Jehove shit on it. I'm pretty sure about it!

Prince celebrating 20 years of Purple Rain? I don't think so.. i mean considdering his new believes, he doesn't celebrate no birthdays at all anymore! but the world tour is a fact, and the idea of NOT celebrating the PR isue during this tour is Prince's way to lie to his god. :hmmm: money will always survive any God! Even Prince is a human fool, thank life for that.

Awhile back, someone from Paisley said Prince had been writing some guitar-heavy music a'la Purple Rain (1984) and Gold Experience (1994) for his 2004 release. Supposedly it's pretty good stuff. Can't wait to find out!

I'd like Prince 2 go all the way retro.

Re-paint the cloud guitar white

Pull out those big mirror sunglasses

Jump on his bike and go on tour

I like him to be more RETRO!
Prince should get those pantyhose on, onemo time.
That RUDE BOY look of 1980 and the whole act with it.
Now that would be RETRO. More than Kylie will ever be, and PEACHES will ever try.
By the way, PEACHES recorded a song together with PINK.. it's too mainstream i think.
PEACHES is that kind of vanity Prince doesn't dare to dream of. She cool, rude, sexy, beasty and lacks all behaviour.
I like her foul mouth. Reminds me of Prince.. but only a bit more better because she's going 100% for it.

I like your post>>This is like u said >When the sun is shinning, this is Day Not Night!!

Keep in mind that 4 Prince Money is Money & God is God...

you're a Funny Guy!

You all want THIS
You all want THAT
I just want the man to do what he likes, even if it is fiddling on a noseflute, whilst running around nekkid in a field full of flowers.

DOROTHYPARK said:

Nah, the overtly Jehovah BS was just a phaze. If you listen to his most recent songs and the tour down-unda, he hasn't preached for a while now. He has gotten all of that out of his system (I hope).

Have you listened to Reflection, U Want Me, Musicology, Life O' The Party, Sleep On The Couch?... He's writing fun stuff again (except for perhaps What Do U Want Me 2 Do, but we don't know when this was written...).

And the PR tour and re-release is VERY plausible. Listen some of the sages here on the site (love!...).

2004 is shaping up to be BIG!

DOROTHYPARK said:

He practically IS celebrating Purple Rain - he played 7 songs from the album in his Australia shows! What more do you want, to come in on a motorbike and a long trenchcoat...!

metalorange said:

Yeah i want him to come in on a motorbike and a long trenchcoat AND in pruple glitter, with a hot chick (christina aguilera, or Peaches, or Pink) on the back of his bike.
a man can dream can, can't i?

where would one hear these new tracks...if one was not a current member of the NPG club? Are they club only downloads or something? Has anyone posted reviews of them?

I quess were gonna have to wait and see - Prince is the "king" of disinformation.

The tour of Oz, if it's an indication of the world tour to come, says he playing the old stuff to please the larger audiences, AND he's playing most of PR - so he isn't totally ignoring it's anniversary.

Even if he's on his 'not interested in the past' trip, no one could forget Purple Rain, it's the reason he has got as far as he has done.

PR was the record that made him an internationally house-hold name, it put him in the record books, it gave him SO much. So regardless of where ever he is now - he owes that part of his past, he owes it BIG time. He can either ignore it, or honour it - but it is a fact that without it, he would not be who he is today, and he would not be where he is today without it.
