According to the Finnish press, Prince has quite peculiar demands while on tour.

In Paris, he demanded to be take by a limousine from the backstage to the stage, though the distance was only 25m

In England they said no one wasn't allowed to look in his eyes.

All the backstages has to be coloured all purple and furnish with purple furniture.

Nice!

If he carries on playing like he is playing, he can demand what he wants. He was on fire last night!

As for the demands, look at the photos of the man doing the soundcheck in the Ghent thread. That doesn't look like a diva to me.

Yes, that's true, but who cares. In fact I like the fact that he still has some diva attitude when it comes to backstage demands. When it comes to music, he is dead serious so that's much appreciated.

i heard he demands 25 boiled kittens and an albino zebra before he goes onstage every night

Absolutely. these pics should be sent to the tabloids here to prove them wrong.

In yesterday's post it said several things at the HOP Festival. Supposedly he had a demand for a Limo 80 feet from his purple themed dressing room to stage. Then they said he wanted a dressing room built to exact meansurements and crews had to rebuild it 3x to get it right. He told workers to paint it purple and fill it with matching furniture. In the past they said he requested an OXYGEN bar and Black M&Ms.
