I have a question about the HBO special? I read an interview where HBO wanted P to do a concert and the reason P refused is because HBO has a rule (or it was in his contract that they offered) that if you do a special for them you are not aloud to perform on anyother network for 1 year. Well.....we haven't seen him for a year - why didn't he do the special. I'm just wondering if anyone heard anything?

I vaguely remember reading something about an HBO special. I not 4 certain but I think it had 2 do more with contract issues. I think HBO retains some sort of ownership or something 2 that effect. Whatever it was HBO would've been more involved than just airing the special. | |

Don't think so. In one of his interveiws last year (Rolling Stone?) it began with Showtime cable execs leaving his dressing room with a frustrated look on their faces. | |

If you recall, the Rolling Stones did a live special from Madison Sqaure Garden in January 2003. Later taht year, they released a version of that concert on their own exclusive DVD Box set "Live licks". So HBO doesn't always keep all rights. Obviously, it is negotiable. Prince is missing out on a huge market here. I'm sure a "Musicology" Tour DVD would do quite well, but it's been awhile since the tour . He should have struck when the moment was hot #SOCIETYDEFINESU | |

Since both HBO and Showtime's parent company is Time Warner AOL, I doubt that we will see P on either network any time soon. "Are you my Caucasian?" - L.D. | |

yeah this i believe was a problem when britney performed with mj at the anniversary show, she almost couldnt do it because of the hbo rule, but i think it was just not shown on the tv...
