== History == |
|
|
The tour also served as promotion for both The Time's "'']''" album, and Vanity 6's '']'', which were all produced by Prince in 1982 through his aliases "Jamie Starr" and "the Starr Company". The tour marked the departure of members from both Prince's band and the Time. Guitarist Dez Dickerson left Prince's band a couple of months after the tour ended, due to the fact that the songs played during the tour were opposed to his religious nature. Dickerson would be replaced in August of 1983 by ]. At the time, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis have also been fired by Prince and Morris (allegedly). This was due to the fact that they couldn't make it to a show in ] during a blizzard storm that happened in ], which resulted in Prince playing the bass off-stage for Lewis while Jerome Benton (valet/dancer for The Time) had to mimic playing the bass on-stage. Another reason is the fact that they violated their contract which instructed the duo to not to produce for other bands, by producing for the ] The pair would therefore be replaced by ] and Jerry Hubbard, while Jam and Lewis went on to write and produce for more bands and studio artists. Monte Moir who was also in The Time also took the opportunity to leave as well (being replaced by Mark Cardenas) and ended up collaborating occasionally with Jam and Lewis. |
|
|
|
|
|
During the tour, tensions escalated as The Time were considered to upstage Prince's band for being considered more "funkier", and a bigger success with the audience. Prince would end up omitting The Time from advertising bills and even from shows for being too good, but nonetheless they remained as a backing band for the first opening act, Vanity 6. |
|
|
|
|
|
The audience for the tour was mostly African-American during its first leg in 1982, but the audience had an increase in white audience during its second leg in 1983, because Prince started to include his rock single "]" on the setlist, according to Monte Moir. The single which was accompanied by a video was played on heavy rotation on the ] network channel. |
|
|
|
|
|
Within dates of the tour, Prince made two appearances on Solid Gold to promote his singles "]" and "]" |
