Prince's first tour as a solo artist. The first part
had to be cut short because of Prince catching pneumonia and ten dates had to be cancelled.
In February of 1980 the tour was re-launched with another six dates. They were warm-up gigs for their upcoming tour as support act for Rick James on his Fire It Up Tour.
