Prince to end Vegas run

From: http://www.livedaily.com/...11846.html

Prince's purple reign over Las Vegas' Rio Hotel & Casino will come to a close this month after six final performances.
The star took up residency in Vegas last November to play weekend gigs at the casino's 3121 nightclub, which was named after Prince's latest album. The singer, who recently scored the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Male Artist, has now decided to turn his attention to touring, according to local reports.

Prince's final shows at 3121 will be between April 13 and 28. Details are listed below.

Meanwhile, the Purple One is joining Christina Aguilera and Dave Matthews as featured artists for this year's Citi/AAdvantage Card-sponsored "Traveling Through Life" concert series. The series, which places arena-sized acts in more intimate venues, will find Prince doing a May 19 gig at San Francisco's Orpheum Theater.

The singer continues to support "3121," which was released in March 2006 and scored Prince his first No. 1 debut. He unveiled more new music in October on the "Happy Feet" soundtrack, to which he contributed the Golden Globe-winning tune "The Song of the Heart."

Prince's website hints at a new project--possibly an album--coming this summer.

April 2007
13-14 - Las Vegas, NV - 3121
20-21 - Las Vegas, NV - 3121
27-28 - Las Vegas, NV - 3121

I was so mad when I read about this like 2 weeks ago!
Thing is, my vacation was supposed to be at the end of this month. I wanted to go to Las Vegas to visit his club/rest. but there was no dates so I had to plan my vacation somewhere else. Thing is, I paid for my vacation already-we are going to spend 1 day in Disney and 1 day in Universal Studios in Florida instead. Now, when I read that I was soooo disappointed that his dates were actually extended! I have been saving up for 4 years b/c it was supposed to be my college graduation present for myself. I never went on a high school senior trip or nothing so I wanted to treat myself to go to Paisley Park after I graduated from College. Since that place was not up and working, I was excited to go to Vegas to finally see but there it goes again. 4 years down the drain! I graduated 4 years ago and still, I will not be able to watch the man again...booo hooo booooo hooo.... I don't think he'll be coming to Lafayette, Louisiana again - ever...I'm so saddend.... sad

That's a bummer angelic. As 4 me, I thought I'd miss out on the Vegas thing al2gether as there were schedule conflicts that prevented me from going 2 Vegas the last few months plus the tix went up 2 $250. When I read he xtended 'til April and the tix were back down 2 $125, I bought the tix right away, then booked my flight--- and that's even b4 I asked time off from work! Thankfully, my supervisor okayed it and I'm on my way 2 Vegas in a couple of weeks-- and I'm gonna c Prince 4 TWO nights!!! I'm in Prince heaven right now! smile

I've been in Vegas all that time but never got around to seeing him cuz of Sin City's other distractions.

Damn you Wayne Newton!
Damn you legalized prostitution!

Ignore this post.
I don't need the encouragement.

Let me get this straight... you can now legally pay Wayne Newton to yank your love bazooka?
