Prince announced an Australian tour happening 10 days from now because why the gently caress not.

Prince’s Piano & A Microphone tour
Tuesday, February 16 – State Theatre, Melbourne (Two performances)
Wednesday, February 17 – State Theatre, Melbourne (Two performances)
Saturday, February 20 – Opera House, Sydney (Two performances)
Sunday, February 21 – State Theatre, Sydney (Two performances)
Wednesday, February 24 – ASB Theatre, Auckland (Two performances)

Really looking forward to seeing him at the loving Opera House of all places. This was very unexpected.

That's his thing these days - he announced a concert in Baltmiore on a Thursday, and the concert was on a Sunday. He's basically like "Look, I'm Prince, it's not like it won't sell out in 2 minutes anyway."

I think this might be my favorite tribute so far. As much as Purple Rain is the best song ever god drat created, it's the only song anyone's covering as a tribute to him. No one knows about Snows in April as a Prince song, and it's like 200% relevant to cover. Also seeing D'Angelo tear up :(


I have been noticing that Youtube users have been on the mindset of "Quick! Prince is dead! Post all your poo poo to Youtube and it won't be taken down for a bit!", which has been nice to see a good number of concert clips from way back.

Given that they're still probably arguing over money and who's controlling what, it'll likely be a long time before any of that stuff, outside of bootlegs, gets any sort of official release. Even then his vault material will get priority I imagine.

Speaking of, it's somehow oddly poetic that his final public performance was of Purple Rain.

And even sadder/equally poetic that right before that was "Sometimes it Snows in April" :(

They ruled in favor of the trust. We may see some official things much sooner than people expected.

Honestly, I hope they put together a Experience Hendrix Paisley Park tour with The Time, The Family, Shelia E and any other former protegees they can rope in.

The Revolution are reuniting to tour as a tribute :fap:
