1 Hour Show
4 Artists
= 15 mins per artist
so maybe 2 or 3 songs will be Prince?

I take it this is cobbled together from shows these artists have played in Hong Kong? I can't see Prince participating in a show with all of these people, since he doesn't like to share the stage with others.

You've got MTV2 in Warsaw, Agnieszka? I would love to see this footage even if it turned out to be just one minute of Prince performing. wave

Isn't it the highlights of the recent HarbourFest?

Doesn't like to share the stage with others???!!! I've been a Prince fan his whole entire career and I can hardly remember the times when he HAS NOT shared the stage! He is always supporting other talented musicians!

I believe this special airing on MTV2 - Hong Kong Rocks - is not solely about Prince or specifically his recent show there. Could it possibly be about the Hong Kong Harbor Fest where many musicians where scheduled to play? While Prince most definitely has shared the stage with other artists - Santana included - in the past, one cannot say that Prince would not do a show with others as he "doesn't like to share the stage."

I am quite a greedy fan, and there have been many times where I wished that Prince wouldn't give up so much "stage" to others, as I have paid my hard earned money to see HIM in concert or watch HIM on his VHS/DVD's.

But thankfully, Prince is not as greedy as me. He recognizes talent and enjoys "sharing the stage" with those other talents.

My gosh!!! One Night Alone with Prince wasn't even ALONE with Prince, he shared the stage with many: Sheila E, Nikka Costa, Candy Dulfer... It was a fantastic show for sure, but none the less he shared the stage.

Please, do your research before you make such ridiculous comments!

I disagree. Look at who he's being "cobbled together" with? The Rolling Stones, who Prince did his first tour with; and Santana, who's music Prince has openly said he enjoys. I could definetly see Prince participating in a show like this since he's being lined up with (at least) 2 bands that he respects.

MTV2 is in Europe but I don't know if the schedules are the same. Probably Not.

MTV2 in Europe is absolute shit, every day when I flick past for the 6 months - I have not heard a SINGLE song that I recognize - they just play shit that nobody ever heard of, if they manage to play this Hong Kong gig I will be greatly surprised !
Hard to believe I've been on the org for over 25 years now!
