Hmm, we are fast approaching the limits of my knowledge. Maybe the tour was something to do with his 'Rainbow Children' album? Looking at the realease date (late 2001) that would make sense.
So... I imagine he would be coming to the UK... but you might have to wait a while.

That still doesnt explain why he was touring in 2002 though. My guess is that was totally unrelated to this album and he has yet to actually bring the Musicology tour to the UK. So my question remains...Why did he not bring it to the UK and is there any word of a future UK tour? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nik Stoltzman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Stewart Caig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 12:19 PM Subject: RE: (313) Prince musicology tour Noooo! I saw it in Safeway (of all places) at least a year ago. It came in a digipak (or whatever those cardboard CD cases are called). Hang on. Let me check that we are talking about the same album... Yep.... thats the one. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/sim-explorer/explore-items/-/B0001X TRCI/0/101/1/none/purchase/ref%3Dpd%5Fsxp%5Fr0/103-5262329-0278221 This has been available for quite a while now. I am confused though because you seem pretty sure of yourself!

And the musicology tour in the states was only this year too I think, so dont think he would have been promoting the album over here in 2002. I haven't heard of any UK musicology tour dates, so just wondered if any were planned. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nik Stoltzman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Stewart Caig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 11:37 AM Subject: RE: (313) Prince musicology tour Err... I know my mate went to see him in London two years ago. I am fairly sure it was the musicology tour. Hang on, let me dig out his e-mail: -- (sent on the 10th of July 2002) Awight? Right, thought I'd better update a few of you on how the gig went,because if you're not interested, you should be. In case you didn't hearI went to see Prince in concert at the Hammersmith Apollo 12 years afterthe last time I saw him live, (though the likelihood of anyone not havingheard is very low given that I've been running around shouting it outfrom the top of my lungs for the past week). As a kid I was into hisstuff in a big way, but a combination of his movement into R n' B and myown feelings of embarassement meant that me and the Paisley Pigmy (as anesteemed and respected colleague of mine termed him) parted company.Anyway, I would like to officially come back out of the closet andre-establish myself as a true admirer. In short; hi, my name is marc, andyes, I'm not ashamed to admit I'm a Prince fan. There, I said it, itwasn't that difficult. But, and I add a sub-clause, I would suggest that my plea of innocencehas gained credibility and strength from the fact that the Purple perverthas gone back to his roots, and is now doing electro-funk in a big way.Quoting a musical tradition continuous with the likes of Miles, JamesBrown, George Clinton, Parliament, Funkadelic and Maceo Parker themajestic midget is not far wrong. The music was hard jazz/funkorientated, his band as tight as a nun's arse with a wardrobe to match(don't worry, I don't know what that means either). The evenings guestwas Maceo Parker, and after doing my research I discovered that the bassplayer was Larry Graham Juniour, (from the 70's Graham central stationband; played on a few Sly Stone tunes). Anyway, I enjoyed it so much that next morning I went out, bought the newalbum, which at 20 quid (on import) is no small price, but had to bedone, and in addition, managed to pick up a few of his old classicssecond hand. It's been so long since I listened to anything he's doneeverything I had was on cassette. So there you go, I'd just like to saythat don't worry if next time you see me I'm back in me 'eels and hairnet, because I'm back on the scene, and not ashamed.....(well, maybe alittle).... -- N -----Original Message----- From: Stewart Caig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 July 2005 10:45 To: [email protected] Subject: (313) Prince musicology tour Does anyone know if the Musicology tour is ever coming to the UK?
