If 311 (http://311powwowfestival.com/) and Dropkick Murphys (http://consequenceofsound.net/2011/07/dropkick-murphys-launch-shamrock-n-roll-festival/) can do it, then why not Prince (http://consequenceofsound.net/tag/prince/)? The Purple Yoda is the latest musician to be putting on a music festival, his coming in the form of the Copenhagen, Denmark-based NPG Festival.
Set for August 6 and 7th at a seaside beach called Amager Strandpark, the festival promises two headlining sets from Prince, as well as performances from Janelle Monáe, Raphael Saadiq, and Chaka Khan, among others. As Prince notes in an issued statement, “The festival will play host to real music by real musicians.”
Multiple ticket packages are available, ranging from standard GA passes to ‘The Purple VIP Lounge Experience.” For complete details, visit the festival’s website (http://npgfestival.dk/practical-information/).
