Prince returns to the stage with three November dates
Prince and the New Power Generation have announced three concert dates set to take place next month, according to Prince’s official website. Tickets for all three of the shows go on sale this Friday (10/27) and Saturday (10/28).
Dubbed the Hit and Run 2000 tour, Prince’s latest jaunt currently comprises three consecutive Sunday night shows: Cleveland on Nov. 12, Grand Rapids, Mich., on Nov. 19 and Charlotte, N.C., on Nov. 26.
Tickets to both the Cleveland and Grand Rapids shows are scheduled to go on sale on Friday (10/27) at 10 a.m., while tickets to the Charlotte show are set for release on Saturday (10/28) at 10 a.m., according to Ticketmaster.com. (LiveDaily is a publication of Ticketmaster Online - CitySearch).
No information on whether or not additional dates are expected was available at press time.
In June, Prince--who began using his name again in May after several years of identifying himself as an unpronounceable symbol--held a week-long festival at his Minneapolis-based Paisley Park Studios. The festival culminated in a live performance by Prince and the New Power Generation at Minneapolis’ Northrop Auditorium.
Prince’s most recent album is his November 1999 release “Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic” (Arista). The album’s concert-video companion, “Rave Un2 the Year 2000”--filmed during Prince’s 1999 New Year’s Eve pay-per-view concert last year--is set for release on Tuesday (10/31) in both VHS and DVD formats, according to his official website.
