Interactive Tour
Interactive Tour was a semi-tour by American recording artist Prince, which took place in the year 1994. The tour was a "semi-tour" because the concerts took place very irregularly, however all of them were held to promote the albums "Come" and "Exodus". The tour was termed "interactive" as Prince considered his material around this time an "experience", with various songs (namely those on "The Gold Experience") containing technological beeps, other assorted sounds and an assertive feminine voice reminiscent of those heard on computers at the time. This "interactive experience" would manifest itself more strongly in the  following years, as Prince was one of the first musicians to use the internet in various ways. History. The first conflicts between Prince and Warner Bros. made their appearances in 1994. Prince did not wish to follow the typical wishes of the company by releasing one studio album, promoting it with singles, and then touring, as he felt it was too restrictive, thus he rebelled against this and claimed his freedom to write, produce and leave if he so chose. This explains the reason why the tour was an irregular one, as every concert was exceptional and held on Prince 's own accord. Several months earlier, Prince had decided to change his name to an unpronounceable symbol (often called "Love Symbol", an insignia which adorns much of his work of this time), and spoke of the "death" of his old persona (the cover of "Come" contains one such reference in the form of "Prince: 1958[–]1993"). It was also announced that Prince would no longer play any of his old equipment, a personal policy that lasted for over two years. The content of most of the concerts came from "Come" and "The Gold Experience", and from June 1994 onwards, excerpts from  the album "Exodus". Many of these pieces were not commercially available at the time of the concerts, which greatly interested fans and collectors. However, by starting an exclusive concert tour primarily consisting of no previously known songs, Prince disregarded much of his audience and only the most dedicated fans continued to follow him.
