This was already confirmed by Ellen:
Then, the Queen of Pop, JANET JACKSON will drop by! We'll talk about her new world tour. There are rumors of a possible Jackson 5 reunion -- I'll have to ask about that. Plus, she's gonna treat us to her new hit, "LUV!" And we will be giving away tour tickets to our audience, and on our website we're giving away a pair of tickets to each of her upcoming shows! http://prince.org/msg/8/270641 [Edited 5/18/08 17:40pm] | |

Yes, but she has been talking about the tour the last couple of weeks and months and nobody believed her... but announcing the tour means it's on, tourdates, date of tickets going on sale... and so on! Besides, JanetJackson.com is official! Ellen is not! | |

They are both official ![]() I'll take Ellen's news over one of those poorly-written mass mailings from JJ.com, though - that site is a MESS. [Edited 5/18/08 17:46pm] | |

![]() ![]() Janet needs a new website and new management - people who can actually write a literate hype release and send it out before everyone else knows about it. I KNOW Ticketmaster and Janet-Xone are going to have the dates posted weeks before her official site will. [Edited 5/18/08 17:55pm] | |

ehuffnsd said: ![]() ![]() That one needs a lot of prayer. I would hope with a seven year gap, she realizes that its time to shake things up, even though now more than ever seems like a good time to be safe and just do the hits. Here's a question. They are both awful but you have to take one...Whimsical or Zoot Suits. For me, that zoot suit thing is such a snooze and "Alright" is not even her 10th biggest or most memorable hit! Shit...might as well bring back "Because of Love" and do that every show instead. | |

This is the Rock With U tour. Confirmed by Janet on her phone line. The number is 323-622-8139.
You can listen to messages left by other fans, too! [Edited 5/18/08 20:57pm] | |

Wow. Shocked she would name a TOUR after a SONG that has the same name as a MICHAEL song. From "Control" to dropping "jackson" from "janet." she has been trying to dissociate herself from his legacy and 'make it on her own' for 2 decades...now it's the "Rock with U" tour? Interesting. I like the title though. Beats the hell out of "Sticky and Sweet" tour.
Per her youtube message...maybe she will be doing stuff from 20 YO and DJ after all? I'll leave it alone babe...just be me | |

Both are terrible...I guess the zoot suit thing doesn't last long but it is such a short who cares moment....where the whimsical is dragged out for a while. She has got to know most fans hate that shit (along with the entire predictability of the show in general). Changes should be made. Maybe include RN but even that should be sort of turned around, too. | |

I hope ticket prices aren't astronomical. I'd really like to go, as long as it isn't an arm and a leg. She's still not worth that to me, even though I'm really digging Discipline and willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that it won't be the same damn show she does every tour. "Try to remember how you used to feel about me
and think about how you're treating me now. Then try to reconcile them, if you can. But you don't even remember, do you?" | |

The maximum ticket price will be $150. | |

My best friend will be moving to Montreal for autumn, so maybe I could visit him and catch that show too? | |

R3V said: VoicesCarry said: The maximum ticket price will be $150. ![]() Ok, when the Boston date was prematurely posted on Ticket Master, the price range was US $45.00 - US $125.00. However, this may vary depending on the city. No full list of dates, yet. I know I will be going to at least 10 shows - including opening, closing, Montreal and Toronto. Other locations will depend on the dates. [Edited 5/18/08 22:55pm] | |
