I think the whole Chinese look was probably just created for that one photo session since they knew they would use it in the Hong Kong tourbook. Lots of artists make this error; they think the people they´re performing for want to see themselves and their own culture when it´s actually the opposite.
I remember for example a Wyclef Jean concert in Sweden a couple of years ago where he would try to speak Swedish throughout the entire show. It was almost kind of cute in the beginning, but after a while it got really tiresome. I didn´t go to that show to hear anecdotes about my own country being told in my own language. If I did, then I might as well have called my granny and listened to her. On the other hand, I think it´s a nice gesture. It´s a way for him to show respect for the culture he´s visiting. Also, he didn´t really wear this type of clothes during the actual concert, did he? | |

U should all B used 2 Prince changing hair styles. He looks better than ever... better than hair in LasVegas DVD, better than hair in early '90s, better than Lovesexy hair... The only better (best) Prince hairstyle is from SOTT era... This kinda reminds me of Controversy era, even though it's a little more blown out. NOW... Back 2 the music... PEACE!!! G. [This message was edited Tue Oct 21 10:09:53 PDT 2003 by Giovanni777] Listen 2 y'all! I mean: 'Lovesexy hair'?!?! | |

Fantastic pictures!
I really dig their outfits. Kinda reminds me of Sade and band during their last tour "Lovers Live". By the way, get that DVD if you don´t already own it. One word: CLASS. The contents and opinions expressed by MrHappy have not been approved for publication by Prince or anyone in his employ. | |

Like the shirt hate the hair. He look good in any kind of way but I'm not feeling that afro. Give me the Emancipation, New Power Soul or the Rave era looks, suit him much better. [This message was edited Tue Oct 21 12:41:43 PDT 2003 by nitab] | |

It's funny how people can say that they are cool with every race of people but not the look of a black mans hair. The bother is black and he has an afro, I always thought the guy looked better when he had an afro, not a perm. So was it ok when he was putting perms in his hair giving you the allusion that he was not black? It's always been a great thing to see people of color start to love them self's and the way they naturally look. | |

hmm, i wonder if he'll do something "aussie" for OUR tourbook...as long as he doesn't make like the crocodile hunter in some khaki, it should be cool. | |

Right On!!! I was thinking the same exact thing. You see who these comments are coming from.. That is a tight ass fro that Prince is sporting in those photos... "Say it Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud!!!" - Brother James Brown

I saw a high school picture of him wearing a basketball uniform and a fro. It was tight. I'm sure he is having a good time with it as well. I'm growing mine back. Remember what our parents said the many things the afro symbolized ? The Sun, Freedom.etc... I think its cool.
