Ok so I haven't seen any discussion here on this... after debuting at
number 1, Prince seems to have vanished without trace and the
promotion of 3121 seems to have halted at a stand still.
Even the much hyped Purple Ticket campaign seems to be proceeding this
weekend with not so much as a whimper.
Anyone have a theory as to what is happening?
The 'net is rife with rumors of course... Here's a sampling:
-P & Universal are feuding for sundry reasons (add yours here)
-P is upset at the record's pre-release leak
-Universal is upset that Prince chose to promote Tamar instead of his
own record, and has not done (m)any performances of the album to
promote it
-P's health: the whole hip replacement rumor
-P has domestic issues... "ain't no fury... only the woman knows"
-P has taken time off to assemble and rehearse a band
-P is back in studio reworking Tamar's album, which has been postponed
indefinitely
-P called to the carpet by the JW's for the risque lyrics on 3121, his
Hollywood partying lifestyle, and other moral issues
-P is bored with a record he's been sitting on for over a year
-3121 sucks and P knows it (that one was for you KERED :P )
-P is purposely remaining mysterious before "blowing up the spot" again
What do you think/know? is happening?

this after I post the current numbers :-P -Derek>
